About this study
Official title: A Multicenter Randomized Parallel Group Phase III Study Comparing the Bowel Cleansing Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability of NER1006 (a Low Volume Bowel Cleansing Solution) Versus Sodium Picosulfate and Magnesium Salt (SP+MS) Solution Using Day Before-Only Dosing Regimen in Adults.
This study evaluates the efficacy, safety and tolerability of NER1006 versus a sodium picosulfate and magnesium salt solution (SP + MS) in adult patients requiring bowel cleansing prior to any procedure that requires a clean bowel, using a Day Before Only Dosing regimen. Approximately 484 patients will be randomised with the aim of achieving a minimum of 220 patients in each of the 2 groups.
- Conditions
- Colorectal Cancer, Colorectal Carcinoma, Colon Cleansing
- Being tested
- NER1006, Day Before-Only Dosing, SP+MS, Day Before-Only Dosing
- Medical subject headings

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
NER1006, Day Before-Only DosingDrug
The subject will self-administer both doses of NER1006 in the evening of Day 1 with 1-2 hours interval. Subject will take mandatory additional clear fluid after each dose.
SP+MS, Day Before-Only DosingDrug
The subject will self-administer SP+MS in the morning of Day 1 and afternoon of Day 1. Subject will take mandatory additional clear fluid after each dose.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| NER1006, Day Before-Only Dosing | Experimental | NER1006 1-Day Day Before-Only Split-Dosing Regimen (to commence on the evening of the day before colonoscopy). Receives: Drug: NER1006, Day Before-Only Dosing |
| SP+MS, Day Before-Only Dosing | Active comparator | SP+MS 1-Day Day Before-Only Split-Dosing Regimen (to commence on the morning of the day before colonoscopy). Receives: Drug: SP+MS, Day Before-Only Dosing |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Number of Patients With Successful Bowel Cleansing (Overall Colon)
The overall quality of bowel cleansing was assessed by a blinded central reader (an experienced and trained colonoscopist) using the segmental scores of the Harefield Cleansing Scale (HCS). A final HCS grading of A, B, C or D was derived. Grades A and B are classified as successful (i.e. all mucosa could be visualized) and C and D are classified as unsuccessful. Comparison of overall success of cleansing with NER1006 versus SP+MS was evaluated using a non-inferiority study design.
Measured: One day (day before colonoscopy)
Number of Patients With 'Excellent Plus Good' (Highly Effective) Bowel Cleansing (Colon Ascendens)
The overall quality of bowel cleansing was assessed by a blinded central reader (an experienced and trained colonoscopist) using the segmental scores of the Harefield Cleansing Scale (HCS). Highly effective cleansing in the colon ascendens corresponded to scores 3 (Good) or 4 (Excellent) of the HCS. Adequate plus failure of cleansing corresponded to score 0-2. Comparison of 'Excellent plus good' cleansing of the colon ascendens using NER1006 versus SP+MS was evaluated using a non-inferiority study design.
Measured: One day (day before colonoscopy)
Secondary outcomes (4)
Adenoma Detection Rate (Colon Ascendens)
Comparison of the number of patients with at least one adenoma detected in the colon ascendens when NER1006 is used for bowel cleansing versus SP+MS. Adenoma detection rate (ADR) defined as the number of patients with at least one adenoma in the colon ascendens.
Measured: One day (day before colonoscopy).
Adenoma Detection Rate (Overall Colon)
Comparison of the number of patients with at least one adenoma detected in the overall colon when NER1006 is used for bowel cleansing versus SP+MS. Adenoma detection rate (ADR) defined as the number of patients with at least one adenoma in the overall colon.
Measured: One day (day before colonoscopy)
Polyp Detection Rate (Colon Ascendens)
Comparison of the number of patients with at least one polyp detected in the colon ascendens when NER1006 is used for bowel cleansing versus SP+MS. Polyp detection rate (PDR) defined as the number of patients with at least one polyp in the colon ascendens.
Measured: One day (day before colonoscopy)
Polyp Detection Rate (Overall Colon)
Comparison of the number of patients with at least one polyp detected in the overall colon when NER1006 is used for bowel cleansing versus SP+MS. Polyp detection rate (PDR) defined as the number of patients with at least one polyp in the overall colon.
Measured: One day (day before colonoscopy)

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing NER1006, Day Before-Only Dosing and SP+MS, Day Before-Only Dosing in people with Colorectal Cancer and Colorectal Carcinoma, run by Norgine at 19 sites in 6 countries.
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 7 inclusion and 25 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 15 May 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 19 sites in Netherlands, Poland, Germany, Italy, Spain and 1 more country. 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 phase mean?
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?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 18 Apr 2017). 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?
Number of Patients With Successful Bowel Cleansing (Overall Colon) (time frame: One day (day before colonoscopy)). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT02273141, which also lists 1 linked publication.
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 15 May 2018.
