About this study

Official title: Colon Cleasing for Colonoscopy in Patients With IBD Colitis: Efficacy and Acceptability of 4 Liter PEG vs 2 Liter PEG Plus Bisacodil

Comparison of two PEG-based bowel cleansing regimens in patients with inflammatory bowel disease.

Read the detailed description

Low-volume preparations are gaining attention for higher acceptability. This study compares efficacy, safety and tolerability of a 2L PEG solution plus bisacodil with a 4L PEG solution in patients with inflammatory bowel disease-related colitis.

This will be a multicenter, randomized, single-blind study. Adult outpatients with IBD colitis undergoing colonoscopy will receive either 2L PEG plus biscodil or 4L PEG. Bowel cleansing will be assessed using the Ottawa Scale and rated as adequate if <6. Patient acceptance, satisfaction, and related symptoms will be also recorded. The study will also focus on the factors affecting quality of preparation in inflammatory bowel disease patients such as disease characteristics and administration regimen

    Intake of at least 75% of the product volume

    Measured: during product assumption

  2. Tollerability

    Occurrence of discomfort during drug intake

    Measured: during product assumption

  3. safety

    Occurrence of side effects

    Measured: From drug intake to the end of colonoscopy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Colon preparation for colonoscopy in people with Inflammatory Bowel Disease, run by Luigi Sacco University Hospital at 1 site in Italy.

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 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 25 Sep 2014. 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 Italy. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Efficacy (time frame: During endoscopy within 24 hours after preparation). 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 NCT02248337, 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 25 Sep 2014.
