About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the PillCam® Platform With the PillCam Crohn's Disease Capsule in Visualization of Lesions in the Small Bowel and Colon That May Indicate Crohn's Disease

This is a prospective, multi-center (up to 6 sites) study which aims to To establish the effectiveness of the PillCam Platform with the PillCam Crohn's capsule as demonstrated by visualizing the small bowel and colon in patients with active symptoms associated with Crohn's disease (CD).

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective, multi-center (up to 6 sites) study which aims to evaluate the diagnostic yield and safety of the PillCam Platform with the CD capsule in subjects with symptoms associated with Crohn's disease. All subjects to be enrolled in this study will have evidence of active symptoms associated with Crohn's disease. Each subject will be required to follow a bowel preparation regimen and will undergo the Crohn's Disease capsule endoscopy procedure and thereafter the ileocolonoscopy procedure on the same day. The ileocolonoscopy procedure may be done the following day per physician discretion. If the ileocolonoscopy procedure is done within 24 hours from the CE procedure, the subject will stay on clear liquid diet. Observations/ assessments to be conducted in the trial detailed in the sections below:

What participants receive

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

  • Pillcam colon capsule and PillCam™ Prep ProcedureOther

    PillCam® Crhon capsule preparation will include a clear liquid diet and administration of a purgative sulfate-free polyethylene glycol electrolyte lavage (SF-ELS) solution (e.g. Nulytely) divided into two doses: the first dose on the evening before the exam and the 2nd dose on the morning of the exam day.

What is being measured

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

  1. Per-subject Diagnostic Yield of the PillCam Platform With the CD Capsule Within the Terminal Ileum and Colon as Compared to the Ileocolonoscopy Diagnostic Yield Within the Terminal Ileum and Colon

    the primary outcome will be evalluated as follow: The number of subjects having active Crohn's disease in their terminal ileum and / or colon as detected by the PillCam Platform with the CD capsule and ileocolonoscopy.

    The analysis related to the primary endpoint was applied for the terminal ileum and colon only due to the limited access of ileocolonoscopy.

    Each patient was classified as follows:

    • Active Crohn's disease is likely
    • Active Crohn's disease is NOT likely "Active Crohn's disease" included the followings lesions:
    • Aphthous ulceration
    • Ulcers (other than Aphthous)
    • Bleeding
    • Inflammatory stricture Lesions other than the above list were classified as "Non active Crohn's disease."

    Measured: All the end points and outcomes measures will be evaluated within 4 months from end of enrollment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Pillcam colon capsule and PillCam™ Prep Procedure and Ileocolonoscopy in people with Crohn's Disease, run by Medtronic - MITG at 1 site in United States.

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 12 inclusion and 21 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 1 Aug 2019. 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 United States. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 27 Mar 2015). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Per-subject Diagnostic Yield of the PillCam Platform With the CD Capsule Within the Terminal Ileum and Colon as Compared to the Ileocolonoscopy Diagnostic Yield Within the Terminal Ileum and Colon (time frame: All the end points and outcomes measures will be evaluated within 4 months from end of enrollment). 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 1 Aug 2019.
