About this study

Official title: Prevention of Progression of Duodenal Adenomas to Cancer in Patients With Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP)

Duodenal carcinomas are the leading cause of mortality in patients with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP) who underwent prophylactic colorectal surgery. The purpose of this study is to determine wether celecoxib combined with ursodeoxycholic acid is an effective chemoprevention strategy to influence the progression of duodenal adenomas to carcinomas in patients with FAP.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in number and size of duodenal adenomas (assessed directly and by evaluation of video and photographic material from endoscopic procedures)

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Cell proliferation, in normal mucosa and adenomas (if present)

    Measured: Baseline, 6 months

  2. Biliary acid profile (if present)

    Measured: Baseline, 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Celecoxib and Ursodeoxycholic acid in people with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis and Duodenal Neoplasms, run by Radboud University Medical Center at 5 sites in Netherlands.

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 2 inclusion and 14 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 16 May 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Netherlands. 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.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Change in number and size of duodenal adenomas (assessed directly and by evaluation of video and photographic material from endoscopic procedures) (time frame: Baseline, 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00808743, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 16 May 2013.
