About this study

Official title: Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability of a Split-dose of a New Bowel Cleansing Preparation (BLI800) in Adult Subjects Undergoing Colonoscopy: A Phase III, Multicentre, RANDOMIZED, 2 Parallel- Group, Comparative Versus Fortrans®, Non-inferiority, Investigator/Assessor-blinded Study

The purpose is to demonstrate that BLI800 is non-inferior, on overall colon cleansing, to Fortrans® (a reference colonic lavage in China) administered in adult subjects scheduled to undergo a colonoscopy for a routinely accepted diagnostic indication.

Being tested
BLI800, Fortrans®

What participants receive

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

  • BLI800Drug

    Two bottles of BLI800 are needed for appropriate cleansing of the bowel. Prior to administration, the content of each bottle must be diluted in water, using the cup provided, to a total volume of approximately 0.5 L, and must be followed by the ingestion of 1 additional litre of water.

  • Fortrans®Drug

    Fortrans® (Powder for Oral Solution) will be given according to Chinese approved Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC). Fortrans® is provided as a powder for Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) based solution available in sachets containing a white powder readily miscible with water. The dosing for Fortrans® administration will be adapted to subjects' body weight as following: 1 L of solution for 15 to 20 kg, an average of 3 to 4 L (maximum 4 L).

What is being measured

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

  1. The proportion of subjects with successful overall preparation based on a centrally assessed global BBPS score (for all segments) ≥ 6 (centralised assessment).

    Efficacy of BLI800 versus Fortrans® will be evaluated with the BBPS global score which ranges from 0 to 9. It will be blindly scored and evaluated by a centralised assessment (blinded assessors will assess the electronic record of colonoscopy and rate it).

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

Secondary outcomes (11)
  1. Assessment of cleanliness by investigators using the Boston Bowel Preparation Scale (BBPS)

    Measured: Day 2

  2. BBPS score by segment (0 to 3), scored in blind and evaluated by centralised assessment

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  3. Rate of polyp detection, evaluated by the investigator

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  4. Rate of adenomas detected, evaluated by the investigator

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  5. Rate of other lesions including cancer, evaluated by the investigator

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  6. Proportion of subjects for whom total colonoscopy could be completed, evaluated by the investigator

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  7. Investigator satisfaction evaluated by 5-point Likert scale score

    Answers will be given on a 5-point rating scale.

    Measured: Day 2

  8. Duration of the colonoscopy

    Time from colonoscopy insertion to the time to reach the caecum.

    Measured: Day 2

  9. Patient compliance with BLI800 versus Fortrans®

    The proportion of subjects who fully followed prescription will be analyzed. The compliance with the instructions of use provided in the prescription will be evaluated by the measurement of unused preparation and fluid intake recorded by the subject on the subject's leaflet. A subject will be considered as fully compliant with the instructions of use provided in the prescription if he drinks the whole preparation and any required further fluid intake.

    Measured: Through study completion, an average of 1 year

  10. Patient Satisfaction with BLI800 versus Fortrans®

    Patient satisfaction will be evaluated by patient satisfaction scale. Satisfaction of bowel preparation will be performed by questionnaire assessing difficulty using bowel-cleansing preparations, ability to consume preparation, acceptability of taste, overall experience and questions regarding acceptance or refusal of future use of the same bowel preparation.

    Measured: Day 2

  11. Patient tolerability with BLI800 versus Fortrans®

    Evaluation of patient tolerability will be performed by patient tolerability questionnaire. Tolerability will be assessed by questionnaire recording the presence and intensity of specific symptoms (nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, abdominal distension, and abdominal discomfort).

    Measured: Day 2

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing BLI800 and Fortrans® in people with Diagnosis Disease, run by Ipsen at 10 sites in China.

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 4 inclusion and 4 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 30 May 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites in China. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

The proportion of subjects with successful overall preparation based on a centrally assessed global BBPS score (for all segments) ≥ 6 (centralised assessment). (time frame: Through study completion, an average of 1 year). 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 30 May 2019.
