Experimental Treatment
Group I: AdrulipaseExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Upon study enrolment, the patient will be switched from their commercial PERT to receive adrulipase. Patients will initially receive a low dose of adrulipase. Upon the appearance of EPI symptoms, lasting at least three days, and upon discussion with the investigator, the patient will be switched to the medium dose of adrulipase. If signs and symptoms of EPI persist for three or more days, the patient will be switched to the high dose of adrulipase.
