About this study

Official title: Phase 0 Monitoring of Gluten-free Diet Compliance in Celiac Patients by Assessment of Gliadin 33-mer Equivalent Epitopes in Feces

The purpose of this study is to monitor of gluten-free diet compliance in celiac patients by assessment of gliadin 33-mer equivalent epitopes in feces.

Read the detailed description

Certain immunotoxic peptides from gluten are resistant to gastrointestinal digestion and can interact with celiac patient factors to trigger immunological response. Gluten-free diet (GFD) is the only effective treatment for celiac disease (CD) and its compliance should be monitored to avoid accumulative damage. However, practical methods to monitor diet compliance and to detect the origin of an outbreak of celiac clinical symptoms are not available.

This study assesses the capacity to determine the gluten ingestion, and to monitor the GFD compliance in celiac patients by detection of gluten and gliadin 33-mer equivalent peptidic epitopes in human feces.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Celiac Disease, run by University of Seville at 1 site in Spain.

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 3 inclusion and 2 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 24 Nov 2011. 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 Spain. 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?

Monitoring of gluten-free diet compliance in celiac patients (time frame: April-July 2011 (3 months)). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01478867, which also lists 5 linked publications.

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 24 Nov 2011.
