About this study

The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the pathophysiological effects of the persistently colonized microbiome in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) patients. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Question 1: the microbiome difference of the biofilm between IBS and healthy patients.

Question 2: the metabolic product patterns between IBS and healthy patients.

Participants will need to take a colonoscopy examination, two gut mucosal biopsy samples will be collected during the examination.

Researchers will compare the IBS and healthy control groups to see if there was the disease-specific pattern in the microbiome and metabolic product of the biofilm.

What is being measured

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

  1. mirobiome difference of the fecal between IBS and health controls

    16S rDNA sequencing will be applied in fecal samples all the above participants

    Measured: Fecal samples will be collected immediately before the colonoscopy (T1) and 7 days after the colonoscopy test (T2)

  2. mirobiome difference of the fecal between IBS and health controls

    16S rDNA sequencing will be applied in fecal samples all the above participants

    Measured: Fecal samples will be collected 7 days after the colonoscopy test (T2)

  3. Metabolic changes between IBS and Healthy controls

    mucosal biopsy will be collected during the colonoscopy in each patients

    Measured: 1 day biopsy will be collected during the colonoscopy test

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing colonoscopy in people with Irritable Bowel Syndrome, run by Second Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University, School of Medicine at 1 site in China.

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 1 inclusion and 11 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 28 Aug 2023. 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 China. 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 WEI WEI (15267175186, wwze@zju.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

mirobiome difference of the fecal between IBS and health controls (time frame: Fecal samples will be collected immediately before the colonoscopy (T1) and 7 days after the colonoscopy test (T2)). The study lists 3 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 28 Aug 2023.
