What is this trial about?

a 32-week study that will evaluate the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of multiple ascending doses of crofelemer, compared to placebo, using a randomized cross-over design within each dose level, when administered to participants with MVID receiving parenteral support (PS, defined as TPN with or without supplementary IV fluid requirements). Blinded study drug will be administered as a novel crofelemer formulation, Crofelemer Powder for Oral Solution, or a matching placebo powder formulation for oral solution. Assigned study drug will be reconstituted and administered orally (or enterally) three times daily (TID) as a concentrated liquid formulation in each of the three dose levels

What are the participation requirements?
