Zusammenfassung:The present invention relates to dosage regimes for the administration of glucagon-like-peptide-2 (GLP-2) analogues, and in particular to ZP1848 (glepaglutide), in patients with renal insufficiency. Unlike other GLP-2 analogues, such as teduglutide, it has been found that ZP1848 is cleared normally in patients with renal impairment. As a result, there is no need to adjust the dosage of ZP1848 depending on a patient's renal function.
