About this study

This study is carried out in patients with IBD and healthy subjects requiring ileocolonoscopy as part of routine care (disease monitoring or polyp/colon cancer screening). It aims the generation and culturing of organoids from digestive biopsies recovered from healthy and/or pathological (inflammatory) ileal and/or colonic mucosa during an ileo-colonoscopy. These cultures will make it possible to validate the organoid production method used in the context of the research (primary objective). In a second phase (secondary objectives), the study will aim to setup a screening tool by irradiating the organoids (step one) and then evaluate in vitro the regenerative activity of treatments dedicated to improve inflammatory bowel diseases and acute radiation enteritis (step two).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing biopsy in people with Radiation Enteritis and Inflammatory Bowel Diseases, run by Institut National de la Santé Et de la Recherche Médicale, France 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 19 inclusion and 10 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 18 Sep 2025. 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?

Validation of organoid-production method - quantity (time frame: Day 1). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. 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 18 Sep 2025.
