About this study

Official title: Fiber Tolerability In Children Aged 3-7 Year

Determination of the digestive tolerability of the PROMITOR® in children from 3 to 7 years old.

Read the detailed description

The aim of the trial is to determine, using a dose escalation design, the digestive tolerability of the PROMITOR®given at the doses of 6, then 9 and finally 12 g (corresponding to 4, 6, and 8 g of fibers respectively) twice a day with the meals of the morning and of the evening versus control (maltodextrin, no fiber) over one week of intake in children from 3 to 7 years old.

As it is an exploratory study there is no categorization between primary and secondary objectives.

Being tested

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?

Assessment of the digestive tolerability of the Investigational Product (abdominal pain) using analog visual scale (time frame: 7 days of intake). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. 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?
