In this phase II clinical trial, underweight patients with COPD will receive 5-day treatment with medium-chain triglycerides (MCT) followed by 3-week combination treatment with MCT and ghrelin. The purpose of the present study is to investigate: i) whether the addition of ghrelin to treatment with medium-chain triglycerides (MCT) would be beneficial; and ii) the safety and effects of 3-week combination treatment on exercise capacity.

Treatment
Medicine | Food |
1) Administration of edible oil consisting of medium-chain C8 triglyceride (octanoic acid)
<The administration schedule of edible oil>
5 g of edible oil consisting of medium-chain C8 triglyceride will be administered orally, twice daily, for 26 days (at breakfast and at lunch).
2) Administration of ghrelin
<The administration schedule of synthetic human ghrelin>
5-day treatment with medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) followed by 3-week combination treatment with MCT and synthetic human ghrelin will be performed. Synthetic human ghrelin (2 micro-gram/kg, dissolved in 10 mL of sterile saline) will be administered intravenously for 30 minutes and repeated twice daily (before breakfast and before lunch).
