Trial summary

The primary aim of the study is to detect the presence of gluten immunogenic peptides (GIP) in urine samples from celiac patients on a gluten-free diet clinically responsive and non-responsive to dietary treatment and from suspected celiac patients already on a gluten-free diet.

About this study

Official title: Impact of Gluten Contamination in Celiac Patients Clinically

The primary aim of the study is to detect the presence of gluten immunogenic peptides (GIP) in urine samples from celiac patients on a gluten-free diet clinically responsive and non-responsive to dietary treatment and from suspected celiac patients already on a gluten-free diet.

Read the detailed description

Once a year, celiac patients perform a clinical (gastroenterological visit) and blood chemistry (blood tests) check. At the Center for the Prevention and Diagnosis of Celiac Disease, about 1400 check-ups of celiac patients are carried out per year. During this annual control visit, consecutive patients afferent to the center and suffering from celiac disease who have been treated for more than 6 months, clinically "responsive" and "non-responsive" to the gluten free diet (GFD), will be invited to participate in the proposed study. Those who participate will be given the symptom questionnaires (VAS), the food questionnaire in order to evaluate the relevance of the symptoms reported and the type of diet followed by the patient and the adherence test to the gluten-free diet (CDAT). Urine samples will be collected to test the presence of GIP (gluten immunogenic peptides) and for patients whose samples test positive, will be asked for a stool sample to detect GIP.

Subjects with suspected celiac disease but already on a gluten-free diet will undergo a challenge, or the reintroduction of gluten in incremental steps of three weeks (routinely performed as per the instructions of the Italian Health Care System).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Celiac Disease, run by Fondazione IRCCS Ca' Granda, Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico at 1 site in Italy.

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 2 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 4 Oct 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 Italy. 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 Maurizio Vecchi, MD (0255033418, maurizio.vecchi@policlinico.mi.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

GIP (time frame: 3 weeks). 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 NCT05066191, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 Oct 2021.
