Proof-of-Principle Study of TC-6499 in the Treatment of Constipation Predominant Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Parallel Group, Proof-of-Principle Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of TC-6499-12 in the Treatment of Constipation Predominant IBS

Study is to assess the effectiveness of TC-6499-12 in the treatment of constipation predominant IBS patients over a 28-day period.

This is a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled study of a maximum of 24 subjects with constipation predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-C). Sixteen subjects will receive active treatment and 8 matching placebo. There will be a 21-day screening phase before 1st study drug administration (Visit Day 1), followed by a 28-day out-patient treatment period with 4 additional in-clinic visits (Days 8, 15, 22 and 29).
