About this study

Colon capsule endoscopy(CCE) is a new diagnostic method of colonic lesions.It has advantages of no requirement for sedation and air insufflation.The bowel preparation has a closely relationship with yield of diagnosing diseases.Bowel preparation of CCE is not only to clean the colon but also to promote capsule propulsion.Now there is not an optimal method for CCE.

Read the detailed description

Objective: In this study, a new bowel preparation regime of the colon capsule is used.This regime combines free-residue nutrients and polyethylene glycol (PEG) to achieve a better preparation quality.

Methods: Participants who underwent a diagnostic colonoscopy examination that demonstrated a colorectal polyps that required endoscopic treatment will be recruited to patients in the study. The first 32 participants receive a traditional low fiber diet two days before the test.Then the patients will take 2L polyethylene glycol (PEG) at 21:00-23:00 before the test day and 2L PEG at 05:00-07:00 on the test day for bowel preparation. The subsequent 30 participants receive two-days free-residue nutrients without other diet before the test.Then the patients will take 2L PEG at 05:00-07:00 on the examination day for bowel preparation. Then they will take 5mg mosapride citrate at 8:00 and ingest the colon capsule at 8:30.0.75L and 0.50L PEG are administered as boosters.And the therapeutic endoscopy will be given on the following day.Before the therapeutic colonoscopy, the participants will take 2L PEG. The colon capsule results will be reviewed by two experienced endoscopists who are blinded to first endoscopy results.

What participants receive

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

  • Free-residue nutrientsDrug

    This trial evaluated the efficiency of free-residue nutrients for the bowel prepartion of CCE.

  • Low fiber dietDrug

    Low fiber diet often used in the bowel prepartion of CCE. In this study, it is the control group.

  • Colon capsule endoscopyProcedure or surgery

    In the study,all patients should undergo two colonoscopies.The first is for examinations and the second for therapy.

  • 2L PEGDrug

    Also called polyethylene glycol

    2L PEG are laxatives for experiment group.

  • 4L PEGDrug

    Also called polyethylene glycol

    4L PEG are laxatives in the control group.

  • PEGDrug

    Also called polyethylene glycol

    These PEG are for boosters. All patients will take 0.75L and 0.5L PEG for two boosters.

  • Mosapride citrateDrug

    5mg mosapride citrate are used to promote gastric motivity.

What is being measured

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

  1. Bowel Cleansing Level of Two Different Bowel Preparation Methods

    The first 32 patients adopted a low fiber diet two days before the CCE procedure. Bowel preparation included the ingestion of 2L polyethyleneglycol in the evening before test day and 2L PEG in the morning on the test day. The subsequent 30 patients were received free-residue Nutrients。Then they ingested 2L PEG between 5:00 and 7.00 am of the examination day. The capsule was scheduled at 8:30 am. When the capsule reached the small bowel, 0.75L PEG was used as first booster. If the capsule had not been excreted 3 hours later, the patients was received 0.5L PEG.

    Measured: an expected average of 1 months from study procedure

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Accuracy parameters:assessment the yield of detection of polyps ≥6mm and ≥10mm;

    Measured: an expected average of 1 months from study procedure

  2. The gastrointestinal tract transit times and the colonic transit times between two different bowel preparation methods for CCE;

    The gastrointestinal tract transit time was defined as the time from initial ingestion to capsule excretion. The colon transit time defined as first capsule image of the cecum to capsule excretion.

    Measured: an expected average of 1 months from study procedure

  3. Colon capsule excretion rate between two different bowel preparation methods;

    Measured: an expected average of 1 months from study procedure

  4. Adverse events between two different bowel preparation methods.

    Measured: the PillCam procedure day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Free-residue nutrients, Low fiber diet and Colon capsule endoscopy in people with Colorectal Polyps, run by Kaichun Wu.

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 6 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 7 Feb 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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?

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?

Bowel Cleansing Level of Two Different Bowel Preparation Methods (time frame: an expected average of 1 months from study procedure). 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 7 Feb 2017.
