About this study

Official title: Identify Bacteria Associated With Metabolic Diseases That Reside Both in Intestinal Crypts and in Blood.

The investigators will compare 16sRDNA profile in cases and controls in order to identify bacteria associated with metabolic diseases that reside both in intestinal crypts and in blood.

Read the detailed description

Experimental evidence suggests that bacterial translocation from gut to tissue could be an initial step leading to diabetes. To test this hypothesis, a bacterial component that is highly conserved between different species of bacteria, the 16S rDNA gene will be analysed both in intestinal crypt and in blood in patients with type 2 diabetes, obese patients and control.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing obese patients, diabetic patients and patients free of obesity and diabetes in people with Obesity, 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 6 inclusion and 5 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 3 Dec 2018. 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?

rDNA comparison between cases and controls (time frame: 36 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 3 Dec 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 6 Nov 2026.
