About this study

Official title: Modulation of Lactase Expression by a New Synthetic PPARgamma Ligand in Ex-vivo Cultures of Duodenal Biopsies

This study is designed to assess the effect of a new PPARgamma modulator on the expression and activity of the lactase enzyme in human intestinal epithelial cells. Based on their previous experimental results, the investigators hypothesized that modulating intestinal PPARgamma activity is a new pharmacological mechanism allowing the control of lactase expression and activity in the gut

What participants receive

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

  • GEDDrug

    Four duodenal biopsies will be collected. Two biopsies will stimulated with GED (PPARgamma modulator) ex vivo during 6 hours. Two biopsies will be unstimulated (control).

What is being measured

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

  1. LCT mRNA expression measured by quantitative RT-PCR in duodenal biopsies stimulated ex-vivo with a new PPARgamma agonist (GED, 1mM)

    Measured: 2 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. LCT mRNA expression measured by quantitative RT-PCR in primary intestinal epithelial cells (isolated from duodenal biopsies) stimulated with a new PPARgamma agonist (GED, 1mM)

    Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing GED in people with Lactose Intolerance, run by University Hospital, Lille 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 4 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 17 Oct 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?

LCT mRNA expression measured by quantitative RT-PCR in duodenal biopsies stimulated ex-vivo with a new PPARgamma agonist (GED, 1mM) (time frame: 2 years). 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 17 Oct 2018.
