About this study

Official title: Behavior of Various Galenic Forms of a Probiotic in the Digestive Tract

The aim of this study is to assess the behavior of a model probiotic strain, Lactobacillus salivarius, in the digestive tract of healthy volunteers and of ileostomized patients, depending on its galenic form.

Two classic forms will be tested (powder and pill). An innovative galenic form (pill with retarded release), developed to enhance intestinal viability and probiotic efficacy, will also be tested.

Read the detailed description

Probiotic survival in the stomach and in stools will be assessed on 9 healthy volunteers. It will be evaluated in the stomach after one unique probiotic intake. Gastric content will be collected at different times, up until an hour after probiotic ingestion.

Fecal probiotic survival will be evaluated after a 7-day period of probiotic intake. Initial stool collection, before first probiotic intake, will be used as control. Stools will be collected after 7 days of treatment (D8) and 3 days after last intake (D10).

Probiotic survival in the small intestine will be assessed on 9 patients with stable medical condition that either have a terminal or preterminal ileostomy. It will be evaluated after one unique probiotic intake. Ileal content will then be collected within 4 hours after intake.

Probiotic survival will be evaluated in the stomach, small intestine and in stools by qPCR and determination of CFU. Microbiota composition will be determined by pyrosequencing on ileal and fecal samplings. Finally, metabolic activity will be determined by chromatography with a short chain fatty acid dosage.

Healthy volunteers will test each of the 3 galenic forms of Lactobacillus salivarius on 3 periods of 7 days. Each period will be separated from another with a 14-day wash-out period at least.

Ileostomized patients will only take a unique dose of each probiotic. Each intake of a different probiotic will be separated from another by a 14-day wash-out period at least.

What is being measured

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

  1. Survival rate of Lactobacillus salivarius

    Measured by qPCR and determination of CFU in gastric content and in stools for each galenic form.

    Measured: 7 days

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Probiotic residual amount in control healthy volunteer

    Measured by qPCR and determination of CFU

    Measured: 10 days

  2. Probiotic residual amount in ostomy pouch

    Measured by qPCR and determination of CFU. Fecal microbiota composition at D0 and D8 after the first intake, in the healthy volunteer group, for each 3 galenic forms.

    Measured: 8 days

  3. Ileal microbiota composition

    Patients with ostomy pouch

    Measured: 8 days

  4. Potential occurrence of digestive symptoms or extra-digestive

    Nausea, bloating, flatulence, abdominal pain, intestinal transit modification

    Measured: 8 days

  5. Comparison of residual probiotic amount between in vivo and in vitro collection in the stomach, ileon and in stools

    Measured by qPRC and determination of CFU number

    Measured: 8 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Lactobacillus salivarius BL 3123 in people with Healthy Volunteer and Terminal Ileostomy, run by University Hospital, Clermont-Ferrand at 1 site in France.

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 7 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 1 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 1 site in France. 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.

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 Patrick LACARIN (04 73 75 11 95, placarin@chu-clermontferrand.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Survival rate of Lactobacillus salivarius (time frame: 7 days). 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 May 2018.
