  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Male or female
  • Age 18 or older
  • Symptoms or manifestations secondary to GERD (e.g., persistent esophagitis, heartburn, upper airway signs or symptoms or respiratory symptoms), gastrointestinal motility disorders such as nausea, vomiting, severe dyspepsia or severe chronic constipation that are refractory to standard therapy.
  • Subjects must have a comprehensive evaluation to eliminate other causes of their symptoms.

  • cardiac arrhythmias including QT prolongation, and

Who cannot join

  • History of or current cardiac disease, including ischemic or valvular heart disease, other structural heart defects, cardiomyopathy or congestive heart failure.
  • History of or current arrhythmias including ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation and Torsade des Pointes. Subjects with minor forms of ectopy (PACs) are not necessarily excluded.

About this study

Official title: Monitoring Study for the Use of Gastroparesis for Patient Who Have Failed Standard Therapy

The purpose of this study is to determine whether domperidone can be used safely and effectively for patient with gastroparesis.

Read the detailed description

Individuals who have been diagnosed with gastroparesis and have failed at least one standard therapy will be offered to trial domperidone as a possible remedy to their condition. Patients on the medication will be expected to to be followed by the physician at 3 months, 6 months 12months, and then annually while on the medication. Any change or significant adverse reaction to the medication or in their condition should be reported immediately to their physician.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Domperidone in people with Gastroparesis, run by Allegiance Health.

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 9 inclusion and 9 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Mar 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Improved Gastric motility (time frame: 3 months). 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 19 Mar 2013.
