Trial summary

Poor bowel preparation and patient intolerance of the procedure are the most important factors contributing to the limitation of colonoscopy. Inadequate bowel cleansing results in incomplete testing, increased potential to miss lesions, increased cost, and decreased patient satisfaction. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Efficacy and Tolerability of Various Bowel Preparations in Diabetic Patients: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Poor bowel preparation and patient intolerance of the procedure are the most important factors contributing to the limitation of colonoscopy. Inadequate bowel cleansing results in incomplete testing, increased potential to miss lesions, increased cost, and decreased patient satisfaction. The investigators hope to gain better insight into which bowel preparation works best in diabetic patients and hence would increase patient satisfaction, tolerability of the bowel preparation and decrease overall costs. The investigators will investigate which bowel preparation for colonoscopy will work optimally in diabetic patients using three different regimens.

Being tested
Golytely (polyethylene glycol electrolyte lavage solution) and placebo, split dose of Golytely (polyethylene glycol electrolyte lavage solution) + placebo, split dose of Golytely (polyethylene glycol electrolyte lavage solution) and bisacodyl

What is being measured

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

  1. Measure the % of Participants With Effective (How Well the Colon is Cleansed Using the Validated Boston Bowel Preparation Scale) for Various Bowel Preparations for Colonoscopy.

    The investigators will measure the number/% of participants who will have good to excellent bowel preparations defined by the Boston Bowel Prep Scale(BBPS) with a score of 6 or more, rated by blinded colonoscopist.

    Measured: Day 1

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Measure of Patients Who Develop (Tolerance)Side Effects of Taking Bowel Preparations.

    Number of Participants Who Developed Side Effects of Taking Bowel Preparations

    Measured: 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing split dose of Golytely (polyethylene glycol electrolyte lavage solution) and bisacodyl in people with Diabetes Mellitus, run by University of Oklahoma 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 12 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Sep 2018. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 8 Aug 2018). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Measure the % of Participants With Effective (How Well the Colon is Cleansed Using the Validated Boston Bowel Preparation Scale) for Various Bowel Preparations for Colonoscopy. (time frame: Day 1). 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 7 Sep 2018.
