About this study

Official title: Comparison of Using the Same-day 2 Sachets Picosulfate Versus High Volume PEG Bowel Preparation for Afternoon Colonoscopy

Comparison of using the same-day 2 sachets picosulfate versus high volume PEG bowel preparation for afternoon colonoscopy Morning only same-day 2 sachets picosulfate may enhance patient tolerability and have similar bowel cleansing efficacy compared to standard method using high volume split-dose PEG.

The investigators aimed to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of bowel preparation protocols with same-day 2 sachets picosulfate compared to conventional high volume (4L) split-dose for afternoon colonoscopy.

Read the detailed description

Split-dose PEG (4L) regimens is a standard regimen for bowel preparation because it has better preparation quality and tolerability than single dose 4L PEG regimens. However, although patients drink each 2L separately, the total volume of 4 L PEG is still quite burdensome volume to ingest. In addition, in split dose method, night dose of day before the procedure make patient to suffer from sleep disturbance because of frequent diarrhea and abdominal discomfort.

The investigators aimed to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of bowel preparation protocols with same-day 2 sachets picosulfate compared to conventional high volume (4L) split-dose for afternoon colonoscopy.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing High volume split-dose PEG and 2 sachets of picosulfate in people with Colonoscopy, run by Inje University at 1 site in South Korea.

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 10 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Sep 2012. 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 South Korea. 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.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Tae Oh Kim, Ph D. (82-51-797-0658 ext. 0658, kto0440@paik.ac.kr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Quality of bowel preparation (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 17 Sep 2012.
