About this study

Official title: Study of the Modularity Immune Function of Lactobacillus Rhamnosus GG in the Small Intestine of Healthy Individuals

The aim of this study was to investigate the host-microbe interaction effects of various Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus GG strains, with different binding capacities to the mucus in the small intestine, in healthy individuals

Read the detailed description

The project consisted in the supplementation of a) a wild-type LGG strain, b) a low-producing pili LGG strain or c) a high-producing pili LGG strain to study subjects. The individuals received the three treatment combinations in a randomised order. Each supplementation was given to the individuals every 30 min over a period of 6 hours. Eight biopsies from the duodenum were collected at the end of 6 h-solutions administration by flexible gastroduodenoscopy, likewise the routine procedure during this endoscopic investigation. Faecal samples were collected by the study subjects at home 1 day before, 2, 7 and 14 days days after administrations of each oral supplementation. The supplementations were separated by a 3-week wash-out period.

What is being measured

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

  1. Difference in whole genome gene expression of duodenal mucosa after administration of three different LGG strain

    Microarray-based Gene expression Analysis were carried out from duodenal biopsies collected after the supplementation of each LGG strain

    Measured: 6hrs supplementation after start of LGG strain administration.

  2. Microbiome of duodenal mucosal biopsies

    Bacterial composition was analysed by Illumina MiSeq sequencing the hypervariable V3-V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene

    Measured: 6hrs supplementation after start of LGG strain administration

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Faecal microbiome

    Bacterial composition by MiSeq sequencing hypervariable V3-V4 region of 16SrRNA gene

    Measured: 2 days after LGG strain administration

  2. Faecal microbiome

    Bacterial composition by MiSeq sequencing hypervariable V3-V4 region of 16SrRNA gene

    Measured: 7 days after LGG strain administration

  3. Faecal microbiome

    Bacterial composition by MiSeq sequencing hypervariable V3-V4 region of 16SrRNA gene

    Measured: 14 days after LGG strain administration

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Probiotic in people with Healthy, run by Örebro University, Sweden at 1 site in Sweden.

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 15 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 18 Jul 2022. 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 Sweden. 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?

Difference in whole genome gene expression of duodenal mucosa after administration of three different LGG strain (time frame: 6hrs supplementation after start of LGG strain administration.). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 18 Jul 2022.
