Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

Anorexia and cachexia are devastating complications in late-stage cancer patients and is strongly associated with mortality in these patients. Activation of Ghrelin receptors have been demonstrated to stimulate appetite. RC-1291 HCl, by virtue of its ghrelin like activity and Growth Hormone releasing effects may have a dual role in the reversal of cancer induced anorexia and cachexia. This placebo controlled study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of RC-1291 HCl in cancer patients with anorexia and cachexia.
