Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 9 to 18 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult

Study population: In the aim of recruiting a sample that will be the most representative possible of the population of pediatric IBD patients in remission in France, patients will be recruited for the study through different procedures: * either during a routine visit to the pediatric gastroenterology clinic (all French pediatric gastroenterology clinics will be study centers) * or during a routine visit to the adult gastroenterology clinic (the French adult gastroenterologists will be informed of the study and will be able to apply to be a study center) * finally, the patient will be able to find information on the study through the French IBD patient Foundation (association Francois Aupetit) and contact the investigators in order to participate.

Who may be able to join

  • IBD (Crohns disease, Ulcerative colitis or IBD-U)
  • in remission (defined as: Physician's global assessment = remission, no nocturnal stools, no blood in stools, < or = 3 stools/day, C reactive protein < 10 mg/L, erythrocyte sedimentation rate < 20 mm, no flare of disease or change of treatment in the last 3 months, no ongoing corticosteroid therapy
  • followed for IBD for at least 1 year

Who cannot join

  • presence of an ileostomy or colostomy
  • past history of total colectomy
  • unable to understand written French or to answer the questionnaires

About this study

Official title: Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders in Children and Adolescents With Inflammatory Bowel Disease in Remission: Prevalence and Identification of Clinical and Psychosocial Risk Factors

Background: Persistent gastrointestinal symptoms have been described in patients who are considered in remission of their inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). These symptoms, attributed to Functional gastrointestinal disorders (FGID) in IBD, may have a significant impact of quality of life, and may be associated with fatigue, anxiety and depression. There is very little data regarding pediatric specificities of these FGID.

Aims: The aim of the study is to evaluate the prevalence of FGID in pediatric patients with IBD in remission. Secondary aims are to investigate a possible association of FGID with fatigue, anxiety, depression and impacted quality of life in the patients, as well as anxiety and depression in the parents.

Methods: This will be an observational, case-control study. All patients between 9 and 18 years old , with IBD in remission will be invited to participate. Questionnaires will be web-based and will evaluate: presence of FGID (Fr-qPGS), fatigue (FACIT-F), anxiety (SCARED-R), depression (CDI), quality of life (IMPACT-III). Parents will be invited to fill in web-based questionnaires on their symptoms of anxiety (STAI/Y-A and STAI/Y-B) and depression (BDI). Clinical parameters will be retrieved retrospectively from the chart. Level of remission will be confirmed by most recent blood tests and fecal calprotectin. Patients with FGID will be compared to patients without FGID in terms of clinical characteristics, disease phenotype and associated psychological comorbidities.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Inflammatory Bowel Diseases and Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders, run by University Hospital, Caen 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 3 inclusion and 3 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 17 Nov 2020. 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?

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?

Presence of Functional Gastrointestinal Disorder (time frame: baseline). 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 17 Nov 2020.
