Domperidone for severe stomach movement problems
Treatments studied
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial looks at whether domperidone can help people ages 12–21 with symptoms from stomach not moving well when usual treatments haven’t worked. It’s designed for cases where other causes have been ruled out and patients are monitored for possible heart and hormone side effects.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study studies how a standardized meal affects digestion using special monitoring in children and young adults with stomach or gut symptom problems (and compares them to healthy controls). It may help doctors understand what causes gut symptoms and guide better treatments.
This trial tests a new way to program an implanted device (Enterra®) to better treat severe nausea and vomiting caused by gastroparesis. If you have frequent nausea and vomiting despite other treatments, this study might help find a better setting for your device.
This study looks at whether abnormal function of the pyloric “stomach outlet” muscle is linked to gastroparesis symptoms (slow stomach emptying). It may help researchers better understand what causes symptoms and guide future treatments.
This trial tests a procedure called G-POEM that may help with severe gastroparesis, where the stomach is slow to empty. It aims to improve blood sugar control and stomach symptoms for people with diabetes.
This study follows people with drug-refractory gastroparesis (stomach paralysis symptoms that don’t improve with usual medicines) to better understand how symptoms and nutrition change over time. Your information may help researchers understand patterns that could improve care.
This program offers domperidone, a medicine that helps the stomach and gut move food along, to cancer patients whose nausea, vomiting, heartburn, or severe constipation has not improved with standard treatments. It aims to relieve these symptoms and improve quality of life.
