About this study

Official title: True Ileal Digestibility of Different Plant-based Proteins in a Human Ileostomy Model

The goal of this interventional study is to learn about the digestibility of different plant-based proteins in adults (age 18-75) with an ileostomy.

The main questions the study aims to answer are:

Read more
  1. How does the digestibility of proteins in the small intestine differ between different plant-based proteins?
  2. Which proteins and amino acids are not digested or absorbed in the small intestine and are available for further metabolic processes in the large intestine?
  3. How do metabolites in the collected content of the ileostomy bag differ after consuming different plant-based proteins?
  4. Can the in vivo results be compared to results from existing in vitro models?

Participants will consume five different protein meals (oat protein - high bioavailable, oat protein - low bioavailable, pea protein - high bioavailable, pea protein low bioavailable, protein-free meal) on five different study days in a random order. Five hours after consuming the test meals ileostomy bags will be collected and the content will be analysed to answer the above mentioned research questions.

Being tested
Oat Protein, low bioavailability, Oat Protein, high bioavailability, Pea Protein, low bioavailability, Pea Protein, high bioavailability, Protein-free meal
Keywords

What is being measured

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

  1. True ileal digestibility of different plant-based proteins

    The primary outcome is defined as the differences in the true ileal digestibility, determined by measuring the amount of nitrogen in the meal and the amount of unabsorbed nitrogen in the ileal fluid after consuming four different plant-based protein meals

    Measured: 0-5 hours after consumption of test meal (on all 5 study days)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Protein and metabolite profiles in ileostomy digesta

    The secondary outcomes are defined as changes in protein and metabolite profiles in the digesta, determined by proteomics and metabolomic analyses.

    Measured: 0-5 hours after consumption of test meal (on all 5 study days)

  2. Differences between in vivo and in vitro data

    Results from the human ileostomy model will be compared with results from in vitro digestion according to the Infogest 2.0 protocol for each of the tested plant-based proteins

    Measured: In vivo data: 0-5 hours after consumption of test meal (on all 5 study days)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Oat Protein, low bioavailability, Oat Protein, high bioavailability and Pea Protein, low bioavailability in people with Ileostomy - Stoma, 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 4 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Jun 2026. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Robert Brummer, PhD (004619303731, robert.brummer@oru.se), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

True ileal digestibility of different plant-based proteins (time frame: 0-5 hours after consumption of test meal (on all 5 study days)). 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 23 Jun 2026.
