About this study

Official title: Short Versus Long Interval to Ileostomy Reversal After Ileal Pouch Surgery for Ulcerative Colitis

In patients with ulcerative or indeterminate colitis who undergo ileal pouch anal anastomosis and diverting loop ileostomy (IPAA) surgery* a short interval to loop ileostomy reversal will result in differences in complications and quality of life compared to a long interval to loop ileostomy reversal.

Read the detailed description

Aim #1: To compare the Comprehensive Complication Index (CCI), the incidence of postoperative complications, including total number of complications per patient, percent of patients with complications, and total number of ostomy-related complications per patient among IPAA patients who have their ileostomy reversed after a short interval compared to a long interval.

Aim #2: To compare the short vs. long interval groups on measures of health-related quality of life (PROMIS) and IPAA functional outcomes

What participants receive

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

  • EarlyProcedure or surgery

    Early ileostomy closure

  • LateProcedure or surgery

    Late ileostomy closure

Study groups in NCT03587519
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Early ileostomy closureExperimentalEarly ileostomy closure will be performed 7 to 12 days after with ileal j-pouch anal anastomosis (IPAA) and loop ileostomy (IPAA).

Late ileostomy closureActive comparatorLate ileostomy closure will be performed 8 - 12 weeks after IPAA.
Receives: Procedure: Late

What is being measured

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

  1. Comprehensive Complication Index at 6 months after randomization.

    The CCI® calculator is an online tool to support the assessment of patients' overall morbidity. The Comprehensive Complication Index (CCI®) is based on the complication grading by Clavien-Dindo Classification and implements every occurred complication after an intervention. The overall morbidity is reflected on a scale from 0 (no complication) to 100 (death).

    Measured: 6 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Total number of postoperative complications per patient

    Post-operative complications. For example, surgical site infection, venous thromboembolism, lung or heart-related complications, etc.)

    Measured: 6 months

  2. Percent of patients with complications

    Percentage of patients with one or more postoperative complication such as surgical site infection, venous thromboembolism, lung or heart-related complications, etc.

    Measured: 1-2 month intervals after randomization through 6 months".

  3. Total number of stoma related complications per patient

    Examples: leakage, pain, retraction, prolapse, bleeding, etc.

    Measured: 1-2 month intervals after randomization through 6 months

  4. Health-related quality of life

    PROMIS questionnaire. This will be used to assess the study patient's overall health, quality of life, physical health, mental health, social activities, relationships, activities of daily living, emotional health, fatigue level, and pain.

    Measured: Once, at 6 months after ostomy closure surgery

  5. IPAA functional outcomes

    Daily stools, nightly stools, stool seepage, stool incontinence, anti-peristaltic medication use

    Measured: Once, at 6 months after ostomy closure surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Early and Late in people with Ulcerative Colitis and Ileal Pouch, run by University of Colorado, Denver at 8 sites in United States.

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 5 inclusion and 18 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Mar 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Adverse Event). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Comprehensive Complication Index at 6 months after randomization. (time frame: 6 months). 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 NCT03587519, 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 4 Mar 2022.
