About this study

Official title: The Effect of Daily Intake of Bifidobacterium Breve Bif195 on Small-intestinal Damage Induced by Ibuprofen - a Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Trial in Healthy Volunteers.

To investigate if a daily dose of minimum 15 billion CFU of Bif195 reduces the risk of small-intestinal tissue damage in an Ibuprofen challenge model as assessed by video capsule endoscopy in a healthy US population.

Read the detailed description

This trial is a single-site, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, two-armed, parallel-group trial in healthy volunteers aged 18 - 40 years. The trial will investigate the effect of daily intake of the probiotic strain Bif195 or placebo when co-administered to daily intake of 800mg of Ibuprofen.

The trial includes a run-in period of two weeks duration followed by a six weeks intervention period where Bif195/placebo and Ibuprofen is co-administered.

Subjects will participate in the trial for a total duration of 8 weeks including the run-in phase. Besides the screening visit, the trial will consist of 5 visits.

After having given their written informed consent, subjects will complete the screening procedures to evaluate their eligibility for participation in the trial and complete a run-in period of two weeks duration to washout possible pre-trial probiotics and/or use of medication. After baseline assessments at Visit 2, subjects will start daily intake of 800mg of Ibuprofen and also be randomly assigned to 6-weeks daily intake of Bif195 or placebo product in a ratio of 1:1.

What is being measured

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

  1. Lewis score area-under-the-curve for Bif195 vs Placebo

    The effect of Bif195 versus placebo on small intestinal mucosal damage during a 6-week Ibuprofen challenge measured as the area-under-the-curve of the Lewis scores obtained from all video capsule endoscopies between Visit 2 (randomization) and Visit 6 (end of treatment).

    Measured: 6 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Bif195 in people with Reduction of Small Intestinal Ulceration Risk, run by Chr Hansen at 1 site in United States.

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 1 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 26 Aug 2021. 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 United States. 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.

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?

Lewis score area-under-the-curve for Bif195 vs Placebo (time frame: 6 weeks). 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 26 Aug 2021.
