About this study

To develop a test to measure small bowel and colonic permeability.

Read the detailed description

The study consists of a physical examination, standardized meals and 3 oral sugar tests with 24 hour urine collections. It requires the participants to visit the Clinical Research Trials Unit in the Charlton Building and Domitilla Building. Remuneration will be offered.

  • Small Bowel and Colonic Permeability TestOther

    small bowel and colonic permeability based on oral probe molecules and urine excretion in 60 healthy white, female and male adults aged 18-70y

Study groups in NCT04262310
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Study AimsTo obtain normative data (median, 10th and 90th percentile) as well as inter-individual coefficient of variation (COV, assessed by [SD/mean]) with approximately 15 participants in each age group: 18-30, 31-45, 46-60, and 60-70 years old. To assess intra-individual COV [assessed by [SD/mean]. To assess effect of standard diets containing 16.25 or 32.5 g fiber/day during the two 24 hour periods before and during the measurement of permeability
Receives: Other: Small Bowel and Colonic Permeability Test

What is being measured

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

  1. Standard Method to Measure Intestinal Permeability

    Normal data on intestinal permeability in a Healthy human cohort:

    To summarize, using descriptive statistics, the median, 95% confidence interval, interquartile range of the following:

    • Urine excretion of probe molecules at 0-2h (reflecting small bowel permeability) with primary interest in 13C-mannitol and rhamnose
    • Urine excretion of probe molecules at 8-24h (reflecting colonic permeability) with primary interest in lactulose and sucralose
    • Urine excretion of probe molecules at 2-8h reflecting both small intestinal and colonic permeability As part of the effort to ascertain conditions under which the test would be performed in the future, we shall test the intra-individual coefficient of variation in healthy individuals, when the test is performed twice under conditions of identical diet, and when the test is performed with diets that have standardized but different quantities of fiber

    Measured: 18 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Healthy, run by Mayo Clinic at 1 site 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 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Mar 2021. 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 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?

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?

Standard Method to Measure Intestinal Permeability (time frame: 18 months). 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 2021.
