About this study

This study investigates the use of glycomacropeptide (GMP) as a means to manipulate the gut microbiome, metabolome and protein profile of subjects with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

Read the detailed description

In vitro assays show that GMP strongly promotes the growth of beneficial bacteria including Bifidobacterium breve, B. bifidum, B. infantis and Lactococcus lactis. GMP also binds to pathogenic bacteria and prevents their adhesion to intestinal cells, which could prevent enteric infection. GMP also modulates the inflammatory response of key gut immune cells called macrophages. However, the extent to which daily consumption of GMP alters the gut microbiome, metabolome and protein profile of subjects with IBS remains unknown.

This study will investigate how daily GMP consumption can alter the gut microbiome, metabolome and protein profile of subjects with IBS.

What is being measured

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

  1. Measure the inflammatory markers in stool and blood using immunology multiplex assay

    Change in levels of inflammatory markers (GM-CSF, IFN-γ, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-9, IL-10, IL-12 (p70), IL-13, IL-15, IL-17A, IL-17F, IL-17E/IL-25, IL-21, IL-22, IL-23, IL-27, IL-28A, IL-31, IL-33, MIP-3α/CCL20, TNF-α and TNFβ) in stool and blood using immunology multiplex assay

    Measured: Baseline, GMP feeding week 1, 2 and 3 and post study without GMP feeding week 1, 2 and 3

  2. Stool sample based gut microbiome composition using 16S rRNA gene sequencing

    Change in stool sample based gut microbiome composition using 16S rRNA gene sequencing.

    Measured: Baseline, GMP feeding week 1, 2 and 3 and post study without GMP feeding week 1, 2 and 3

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Casein glycomacropeptide (CGMP) in people with Inflammatory Bowel Syndrome, run by Oregon State University 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 3 inclusion and 6 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 4 Apr 2025. 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?

Measure the inflammatory markers in stool and blood using immunology multiplex assay (time frame: Baseline, GMP feeding week 1, 2 and 3 and post study without GMP feeding week 1, 2 and 3). 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 4 Apr 2025.
