Leaky Gut SyndromePhase 2/3NCT01088087
Effect of Colostrum on Gut Permeability and Endotoxin Level in Chronic Alcoholic Disease
A Phase 2/3 study testing colostrum in people with Leaky Gut Syndrome, run by Gangnam Severance Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.
Trial summary
Chronic alcohol ingestion is related with leaky gut syndrome. Colostrum is well-studied that it has a effect of decreasing the degree of leaky gut syndrome. So the investigators are planning to find out whether Colostrum has a effect of decreasing the degree of leaky gut syndrome. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Effect of Colostrum Administration on Improving Gut Permeability and Serum Endotoxin Level in Chronic Alcohol Drinkers With Hepatic Dysfunction
Chronic alcohol ingestion is related with leaky gut syndrome. Colostrum is well-studied that it has a effect of decreasing the degree of leaky gut syndrome.
So the investigators are planning to find out whether Colostrum has a effect of decreasing the degree of leaky gut syndrome.
Read the detailed description
We randomly sort the participant as placebo group and colostrum group. Each group consists of 17 people. and the duration of our study for one participant is 3 weeks. (Participant takes colostrum for 3 weeks.)
When a person gets leaky gut syndrome, his or her endotoxin and lactulose/mannitol ratio (L/M ratio, in urine) can elevate.
So We will compare the value of those two parameters and LFT. etc. after the administration of colostrum or placebo.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2/3 study testing colostrum in people with Leaky Gut Syndrome, run by Gangnam Severance Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.
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 5 inclusion and 9 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 17 Mar 2010. 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 South Korea. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?
Results are not available in the source record.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Jae Yong Shim, Master (82-02-2019-3155, hongbai96@yuhs.ac.kr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
endotoxin (time frame: 1st visit and 3 weeks after 1st visit). 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 17 Mar 2010; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
