Trial summary

Background: Within recent years, new methods for detailed assessment of gastrointestinal (GI) motility have been developed. Hence, the electromagnetic 3D-Transit system is a safe, non-invasive method for detailed description of GI motility. Read more about this study

About this study

Background: Within recent years, new methods for detailed assessment of gastrointestinal (GI) motility have been developed. Hence, the electromagnetic 3D-Transit system is a safe, non-invasive method for detailed description of GI motility. The system tracks the exact position of an ingested electromagnetic capsule through the entire GI tract and provides detailed information on both regional transit- and contraction patterns. High Resolution Colonic Manometry (HRCM) allows extremely detailed description of contraction patterns in the colon. The HRCM is however an invasive method, as the catheter is placed during colonoscopy. Before widespread use of capsule-based techniques (3D-Transit or others), the system needs to be validated by another method.

Study Objectives: The purpose of this study is to investigate weather pressure changes measured by HRCM correlate with passage patterns recorded by 3D-Transit. This has been assumed so far, but has never been further investigated.

Hypothesis: Movement of the electromagnetic 3D-Transit capsule within the colon correspond well with pressure changes determined with HRCM.

Materials and methods: HRCM and 3D-transit will be performed simultaneously in 20 healthy participants. A colonoscopy is performed to install the HRCM catheter and place two 3D-Transit capsules within the colon. For 24 hours, the participants lie in a bed in the research lab while pressure changes from the HRCM catheter are recorded and the 3D-Transit capsules are followed through the gastrointestinal system.

Perspectives: If data from the 3D-Transit technique correlate well with HRCM, the method provide a non-invasive alternative allowing detailed assessment of colonic motility.

Receives: Device: High Resolution Colonic Manometry and 3D-Transit system

What is being measured

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

  1. Correlation between pressure changes and passage patterns

    Do the high amplitude propagating contraction patterns accessed with High Resolution Colonic Manometry occur simultaneously with the long fast antegrade movements determined with the 3D-Transit system.

    Measured: 24 hours measurement

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Distance of capsule movement and pressure changes

    How do the length of a pressure change measured by High Resolution Colonic Manometry correlate with the distance covered in long fast antegrade movements determined with the 3D-Transit system (cm).

    Measured: 24 hours measurement

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Healthy and Colonic Motility, run by Janne Ladefoged Fassov at 1 site in Denmark.

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 3 inclusion and 4 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Jan 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 Denmark. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Ditte S Iversen, MD (+45 78453800, dittiver@rm.dk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Correlation between pressure changes and passage patterns (time frame: 24 hours measurement). 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 22 Jan 2020.
