About this study

The purpose of this study is to determine whether an association between endomicroscopic pattern and colorectal mucosal microbiome exists.

Read the detailed description

The gut microbiome plays a pivotal role in the intestinal pathophysiology. The mucosal microbiome is in the front face of microbiome-host cross-talk. Confocal laser endomicroscopy (CLE) can provide realtime mucosal images during ongoing endoscopy. We hypothesized that the mucosal pattern, here evaluated by endomicroscopy, may constitute specific microbiome niches and participate the evolvement of the mucosal microbiome.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Colorectal Neoplasia and Colorectal Inflammation, run by Shandong University at 1 site in China.

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 2 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 30 Jun 2015. 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 China. 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?

The operational taxonomy unit in the colorectal mucosal microbiome. (time frame: 6 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 30 Jun 2015.
