Trial summary

This study will evaluate whether morning-only dosing of MoviPrep® (2L) for afternoon colonoscopy is as effective as a standard dosing regimen of half of the volume of MoviPrep® (1L) solution the evening prior, and half (1L) the morning of, colonoscopy. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Efficacy of a Low Volume PEG Purgative (MoviPrep®) Administered Entirely in the Morning Compared to Split Dose (PM/AM) Administration

This study will evaluate whether morning-only dosing of MoviPrep® (2L) for afternoon colonoscopy is as effective as a standard dosing regimen of half of the volume of MoviPrep® (1L) solution the evening prior, and half (1L) the morning of, colonoscopy. MoviPrep® is a low volume (2 liters) polyethylene glycol (PEG)-based purgative that is approved for evening-only or split (evening and morning) dosing to cleanse the colon prior to colonoscopy. Patients undergoing afternoon colonoscopies often have inferior colon cleansing. There is evidence that morning-only purgative administration of large volume PEG (4L) is safe and effective. This study will assess whether administration of a low volume PEG regimen will maintain efficacy and improve tolerance by changing a 2-day preparation procedure into a regimen that is completed in 1 day.

Read the detailed description

primary objectives

  • To compare the efficacy of morning dose only MoviPrep® ("AM Dosing") where one-half of the prep is given 7 hours before colonoscopy and the second half is given 4 hours before colonoscopy, versus split dose (PM/AM) MoviPrep® ("PM/AM Dosing") where one-half of the prep is given at 6pm the night prior to colonoscopy and the second half is given 4 hours before colonoscopy.

Efficacy will be assessed based on cleansing of the entire colon, with successful cleansing defined as a score of excellent or good and unsuccessful cleansing defined as a score of fair or poor.

Secondary objectives

  • To assess the tolerability of AM Dosing MoviPrep® versus PM/AM Dosing MoviPrep® based on percentage of prep completed, sleep quality/quantity, future prep choice (same prep or alternative prep described), and incidence and severity (using 11-point Likert scale) of any adverse events (i.e. nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, bloating, light-headedness).
  • To evaluate the safety of each dosing administration based on vitals with orthostatic measures (BP, pulse) on day of colonoscopy.
  • To evaluate the effect of colon prep on work and productivity as measured by the degree of interference with work/productivity the day prior to colonoscopy.
  • To assess difference between two dosing arms with respect to analysis of right colon cleansing, and overall adenoma detection in terms of number, size, location, histology, and morphology.
  • To determine the effect of purgative dosing on procedure efficiency by measuring (a) total procedure time, (b) time from anus to cecum, and (c) withdrawal time (excluding time taken for interventions).
  • To evaluate the effect of purgative dosing regimen on amount of flushing required during the procedure (0 = none, 1 = <50 ml, 2 = 50-100 ml, 3 = >100 ml).
  • To validate a new grading scale for colon cleansing using the de-identified recordings of colonoscopies performed during this study.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Comparing the efficacy of AM dose only MoviPrep® (1/2 the prep 7 hrs pre colonoscopy and the second 1/2 4 hrs pre colonoscopy), versus PM/AM where 1/2 of the prep is at 6pm the night prior to colonoscopy and the second half is 4 hours before colonoscopy.

    Measured: once

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Colonoscopy, run by Thomas Jefferson University at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 13 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Mar 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Comparing the efficacy of AM dose only MoviPrep® (1/2 the prep 7 hrs pre colonoscopy and the second 1/2 4 hrs pre colonoscopy), versus PM/AM where 1/2 of the prep is at 6pm the night prior to colonoscopy and the second half is 4 hours before colonoscopy. (time frame: once). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Mar 2013.
