About this study

Clinical and experimental data suggest that dysbiosis may play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of intestinal bowel disease (IBD). However, to the best of our knowledge, the composition of gastric and of intestinal microbiome has never been investigated in a population with IBD according to the presence/absence of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) in the stomach.

Read the detailed description
  1. pylori infection is one of the most widely spread infectious diseases in humans. Although the pathogenesis of IBD is unknown, this pathology could result from complex interactions between environmental factors and the intestinal microbiota, with dysbiosis likely being a key factor. In theory, H. pylori infection could be involved in the pathogenesis of IBD by inducing alterations in gastric and/or intestinal permeability or by causing immunological derangements. However, various studies indicate that the prevalence of H. pylori infection is low in patients with IBD, suggesting a protective role for this infection in the development of IBD.

The objective of the study is to investigate the potential link between H. pylori infection and IBD. Another objective is to analyze the complex interactions between the gastric and intestinal microbiome in a population with IBD according to the presence or absence of H. pylori in the stomach.

The study will be based on a prospective cohort of patients with IBD receiving medical care at the CHU of Guadeloupe.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • BiopsiesOther

    Gastric biopsies are taken during digestive endoscopy as part of routine clinical care. Two additional biopsies (one fundic and one antral) are planned for research purposes, specifically for metagenomic analysis of the gastric microbiome.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Patients with Inflammatory Bowel DiseaseEndoscopy is systematically performed in patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). In accordance with the recommendations of the French National Authority for Health, gastric biopsies are taken during digestive endoscopy as part of routine clinical care. Two additional biopsies (one fundic and one antral) are planned for research purposes, specifically for metagenomic analysis of the gastric microbiome.

What is being measured

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

  1. Prevalence of H. pylori infection in patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)

    Presence of Helicobacter pylori infection determined using gastric biopsies collected during clinically indicated upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. Infection status will be confirmed by standard histological assessment performed as part of routine care. The prevalence will be expressed as the proportion of IBD patients with confirmed H. pylori infection among all included IBD patients in the cohort.

    Measured: At the time of endoscopic evaluation (baseline only).

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Demographic characteristics according to H. pylori infection status

    Comparison of demographic characteristics (age, sex, ethnicity) between IBD patients with and without confirmed H. pylori infection. Data collected at baseline from medical records.

    Measured: Baseline.

  2. Clinical characteristics according to H. pylori infection status

    Comparison of clinical characteristics (type of IBD, disease duration, clinical activity) between IBD patients with and without confirmed H. pylori infection. Data collected at baseline from medical records.

    Measured: Baseline.

  3. Biological inflammatory markers according to H. pylori infection status

    Comparison of biological markers related to disease activity (e.g., C-reactive protein, fecal calprotectin) between IBD patients with and without confirmed H. pylori infection.

    Measured: Baseline.

  4. IBD-related treatments according to H. pylori infection status

    Comparison of ongoing therapeutic regimens (e.g., immunosuppressants, biologics, corticosteroids) between IBD patients with and without confirmed H. pylori infection.

    Measured: Baseline.

  5. Prevalence of gastric intestinal metaplasia and dysplasia according to H. pylori infection status

    Histological assessment of gastric biopsies to determine intestinal metaplasia or dysplasia, compared between groups with/without H. pylori.

    Measured: Baseline.

  6. Composition of the gastric microbiome according to H. pylori infection status

    Metagenomic analysis of additional gastric biopsies (fundic + antral) to compare microbiome profiles between IBD patients with and without H. pylori.

    Measured: Baseline.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of HELICOBACTER PYLORI INFECTIONS and Inflammatory Bowel Disease (Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis), run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de la Guadeloupe at 1 site in Guadeloupe.

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 1 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Dec 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 Guadeloupe. 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 georgette Saint-Georges, MD (0590891445 ext. +590, georgette.saint-georges@chu-guadeloupe.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Prevalence of H. pylori infection in patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) (time frame: At the time of endoscopic evaluation (baseline only).). 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 Dec 2025.
