Trial summary

We will quantify one of the lipid compounds (5,6 epoxy eicosatrienoic acid (5,6 EET), 5,6- EpoxyEicosaTrienoic acid) in colonic biopsies of Inflammatory Bowel Disease patients. We will evaluate its possible use as a pathological activity biomarker and its potential as a therapeutic target. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Quantitative Analysis of Lipid Mediators in Colonic Biopsies From Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Diseases and From Control Patients.

We will quantify one of the lipid compounds (5,6 epoxy eicosatrienoic acid (5,6 EET), 5,6- EpoxyEicosaTrienoic acid) in colonic biopsies of Inflammatory Bowel Disease patients. We will evaluate its possible use as a pathological activity biomarker and its potential as a therapeutic target.

We hypothesized that 5,6-EET is present in human colonic tissues in varying quantities depending on the pathological state of the IBD patient.

Read the detailed description

The project is an exploratory physiopathological/translational pilot study, aiming at understanding the relative importance of the lipid compounds, especially 5,6-EET, in Inflammatory Bowel Diseases.

Using mass spectrometry, 5,6-EET and other 33 lipid metabolites will be quantified in situ in colonic biopsies from IBD patients and from control patients. We will compare quantities of 5,6-EET in inflammatory and non-inflammatory zones of biopsies from IBD patient to biopsies from control patient. We will establish a cluster of lipid compounds associated with pathological activity. We will determine the exposed profile of receptor lipid mediators expressing to the 5,6-EET lipid compound and one of its signalization.

All data will be submit to statistical analysis to confirm relevance.

We expect this pilot study to help us define 5,6-EET and other components of the same metabolic family as markers for IBD activity. It could point lipid mediators and their receptors as potential new therapeutic targets.

It will increase our knowledge on current treatment efficiency by evidencing lipid markers for the inflammatory condition.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Colonic BiopsyOther

    Colonoscopy or coloscopy can provide a visual diagnosis and grants the opportunity for biopsy or removal of suspected colorectal cancer lesions.

    The endoscope is then passed through the anus up the rectum, the colon, and ultimately the terminal ileum. The endoscope has a movable tip and multiple channels for instrumentation, air, suction and light. Biopsies are frequently taken for histology, needed for cancer or IBD diagnosis.

    Extra-biopsies for research purpose will only be performed if the clinician decides that they are necessary for the clinical diagnosis or for the disease follow-up.

    For this protocol, collecting these extra biopsies should last under 5 minutes and should not extend the procedure by more than this time.

Receives: Other: Colonic Biopsy
Control GroupOtherindividuals undergoing screening colonic biopsy for colon cancer or polyp detection, who have not been diagnosed with any intestinal pathology.
Receives: Other: Colonic Biopsy

What is being measured

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

  1. Measure of 5,6-EET quantity in a colonic biopsy

    Mass spectrography analysis of the biopsies will be performed each time at least 10 samples are available

    Measured: 5 minutes

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Nature and quantity of Lipid metabolites as a function of the patient clinical profile (mapping)

    This measure will be performed at the same time than the first outcome measure (each time at least 10 samples are available).

    Measured: 5 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Colonic Biopsy in people with Inflammatory Bowel Diseases and Colitis, Ulcerative, run by University Hospital, Toulouse at 1 site in France.

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 7 inclusion and 12 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 23 Feb 2017. 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 France. 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?

Measure of 5,6-EET quantity in a colonic biopsy (time frame: 5 minutes). 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 NCT01990716, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 23 Feb 2017.
