About this study

Official title: Impact of Osteopathy on IBS-like Symptoms Associated With Ulcerative Colitis in Patients in Remission

Type : interventional, randomized single blind study Aim : to evaluate 3 sessions of osteopathy on IBS-like symptoms associated with ulcerative colitis in remission Number of patients : 50 (randomization 1:1) Duration of the inclusion period : 2 years Primary end-point : Irritable Bowel Syndrome Severity Scoring System (IBS SSS) at 3 months

Read the detailed description

Osteopathy has been shown to be effective in IBS patients in few studies and to improve IBS-like symptoms in a short series of Crohn patients. IBS-like symptoms are frequent in patients with ulcerative colitis in remission (about 20 %).

The aim of this interventional, randomized single blind study is to evaluate the impact of 3 sessions of osteopathy on Irritable Bowel Syndrome symptoms in 50 patients (randomisation 1:1) with ulcerative colitis in remission (defined by fecal calprotectin < 200 µg/g).

The two group of patients will have 4 sessions of osteopathy (M0, M1, M2, M3). The "treated group" will have 3 sessions of osteopathy testing followed by osteopathy treatment (M0, M1, M2) and a final testing session at M3. The "untreated group" will have 4 sessions of only testing osteopathy (M0, M1, M2, M3).

Primary end-points : Irritable Bowel Syndrome Severity Scoring System (IBS SSS) at 3 months (M3) Secondary end-points : Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire ol, Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue at M3, evaluation of osteopathic dysfunctions between M0 and M3, questionnaire for use of medication for IBS between M0 and M3

What is being measured

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

  1. Evaluate the score change of Irritable Bowel Syndrome Severity Scoring System (IBS SSS)

    index of severity of Irritable Bowel Syndrome symptoms

    Measured: Month 1, Month 2, Month 3, Month 4

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. IBDQol : Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire

    Index of quality of life dedicated to Inflammatory Disease Bowel patients : the score is high, better the quality of life

    Measured: Month 1, Month 2, Month 3, Month 4

  2. FACIT-F : Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue

    Validated fatigue score with question about quality of life 45/5000

    if the score is high, the patient is tired

    Measured: Month 1, Month 2, Month 3, Month 4

  3. Evaluation of osteopathic dysfunctions

    it will be interesting to see if patients with remission-prone RCH have similar osteopathic dysfunctions at the beginning of the study, and then if the management during the study influences or not these osteopathic dysfunctions.

    Osteopathic dysfunction is an alteration of the mobility, viscoelasticity or texture of somatic system components. It is accompanied or not by a painful sensibility.

    Measured: Month 1, Month 2, Month 3, Month 4

  4. Questionnaire for use of medication for Irritable Bowel Syndrome

    if treatment modification, dose reduction or change in treatment

    Measured: Month 1, Month 2, Month 3, Month 4

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Osteopathy in people with Irritable Bowel Syndrome and Ulcerative Colitis, run by Clinique Paris-Bercy 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 7 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

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?

Evaluate the score change of Irritable Bowel Syndrome Severity Scoring System (IBS SSS) (time frame: Month 1, Month 2, Month 3, Month 4). 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?
