About this study
Official title: A Prospective, Randomized, Evaluator Blind, Active-Controlled, Parallel Study of the Efficacy and Safety of Quiklean® and Klean-Prep With Dulcolax® for the Bowel Preparation Prior to Colonoscopy
The objective is to demonstrate that investigational drug, Quiklean®, is not inferior to standard comparator, Klean-Prep with Dulcolax®, with respect to the overall quality of bowel preparation in subjects undergoing colonoscopy.
Read the detailed description
This will be a randomized, evaluator blind, active-controlled, parallel study to compare the safety and efficacy of investigational drug (Quiklean®) with standard comparator (Klean-Prep with Dulcolax®) in subjects undergoing bowel preparation for colonoscopy. This study will be conducted in two arms:
- Group A: Quiklean® (32 tablets)
- Group B: 2 sachets of Klean-Prep with 1 tablet of Dulcolax® The study will be consist of 4 clinical visits. Subjects will come to the clinics at Visit 1 (the start of the screening), Visit 2 (randomization), and Visit 3 (colonoscopy visit), and Visit 4 (follow-up visit) according to the pre-defined schedule.
After the inform consent is obtained from the subject, the designated assessment will be performed. If the eligibility criteria has been met, the subjects will be randomly assigned with a 1:1 (Group A:B) and scheduled to a colonoscopy. The colonoscopy visit should be arranged within 10 days after screening visit and randomization. Subjects are instructed how to take study medication, and standard dietary instructions for each group are identical.
After bowel preparation, the colonoscopy will be performed in the morning by the experienced colonoscopist, and the entire process of colonoscopy will be simultaneously recorded by video. The quality of bowel cleansing in video will be rated by an independent blinded colonoscopist after the completion of colonoscopy.
The modified Aronchick scale for the primary efficacy endpoint and the Ottawa scale, and subject's responses to the acceptability and tolerability for the secondary efficacy endpoint will be rated and collected. The safety laboratory examinations from the blood sample, solicited events from the start of administration of study medications before colonoscopy, and treatment-emergent adverse events will be also recorded.

What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing Quiklean® (sodium phosphate monobasic monohydrate, USP, and sodium phosphate dibasic anhydrous, USP) and Polyethylene glycol 3350, sodium sulfate anhydrous, sodium bicarbonate, sodium chloride, potassium chloride, aspartame;Bisacodyl in people with Bowel Preparation, run by Universal Integrated Corp. at 1 site in Taiwan.
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 25 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 30 Mar 2020. 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 Taiwan. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
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?
Aronchick scale (time frame: up to 24 weeks). 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 30 Mar 2020.
