Nutritional supplements for patients with exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) typically utilize pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT) which is associated with gastrointestinal side effects. We evaluated serum triglyceride levels in patients with cystic fibrosis following consumption of an enzyme-modified oil oral nutritional supplement (EMO-ONS) versus a standard triacylglycerol-based ONS product (TAG-ONS) used concomitantly with PERT and patient tolerability between the two approaches. Ten subjects with CF and EPI taking PERT were enrolled in a single-center, double-blind, cross-over proof of concept trial. Five subjects randomized to Arm 1 were administered a PERT placebo and EMO-ONS and 5 subjects in Arm 2 were administered TAG-ONS+PERT. After 4 to 14 days, subjects received the opposite ONS. Serum triglyceride levels were measured at baseline and hourly for 6 h. Following the above, subjects were randomly assigned to receive 2 daily servings of EMO-ONS+PERT placebo or TAG-ONS+PERT at home for 7-days, self-reporting gastrointestinal symptoms daily. Mean change in peak serum triglyceride levels were similar for both groups (EMO-ONS = 41.9 ± 46.7 mg/dL vs. TAG-ONS+PERT = 46.4 ± 44.1 mg/L; p = 0.85). There was no difference in mean ratio of the serum triglyceride AUC between the two groups (p = 0.58) or self-reported gastrointestinal tolerance. EMO-based products may provide a PERT-free alternative to traditional ONS products in patients with cystic fibrosis.
