About this study

Official title: Critical Assessment of Routine Surveillance of Asymptomatic Patients With Ulcerative Colitis With Ileal Pouch-anal Anastomosis and Risk Factors for Dysplasia - is There a Rationale?

The purpose of this study is to study development of dysplasia in the ileal mucosa among patients with Ulcerative Colitis and who previous have hade risk factors for developing cellular changes/dysplasia, i.e. previous dysplasia and/or carcinoma in their specimen.

Read the detailed description

Objective Some of the rare complications reported in patients with an ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) after colectomy for chronic ulcerative colitis are dysplasia and carcinoma. The supposed pathway is for the ileal pouch mucosa to go through adaptational changes then to progress through the phases of chronic pouchitis, dysplasia and subsequently to adenocarcinoma. The purpose of this study is to study development of dysplasia in the ileal mucosa among patients with Ulcerative Colitis and who previous have hade risk factors for developing cellular changes/dysplasia, i.e. previous dysplasia and/or carcinoma in their specimen.

Methods In a cohort of 680 patients having IPAA with a median follow-up time of 18 years, 75 patients with risk factors for dysplasia were identified. Sixty-five patients were eligible for inclusion, fifty-six patients accepted to participate in the study. Patients are invited for clinical examination, endoscopy with macroscopic evaluation as well as mucosal biopsies. The biopsies are reviewed and evaluated by two independent pathologists, experienced in colonic pathology, concerning morphological changes, dysplasia and potential carcinoma Results Architectural structural changes, inflammation and reactive atypia is noted in the rectal cuff and ileal pouch. So far, none of the biopsies showed genuine dysplasia after a follow up for 18 years (Range 12-23 years). In this respect there is full agreement between the two pathologists.

Further microscopic evaluation are planned for the rest of the participating patients.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Endoscopy and biopsy in people with Ulcerative Colitis and Dysplasia, run by Mattias Block at 1 site in Sweden.

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 19 Apr 2016. 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 Sweden. 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?

Presence of dysplasia in patients with Ulcerative Colitis and Ileal Pouch-Anal Anastomosis (time frame: Up to 7 days). 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 Apr 2016.
