Clinical Trial Summary

This study tests the hypothesis that a supplement that combines a functional fiber, long chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), vitamin D3, vitamin E, and zinc will reduce clinical symptoms, decrease pro-inflammatory cytokines in the blood and ergo decrease inflammation, promote beneficial microbial activity in the colon, and help recovery of the intestinal mucosa of ulcerative colitis (UC) patients compared with a placebo.


Description:

An anticipated 30 participants with newly diagnosed active ulcerative colitis will be recruited to participate in a randomized control trial, with 50% of the subjects distributed to the supplement (n=15) and the other 50% provided a placebo control (n=15). This is considered as a "proof of concept" study to determine if there is evidence that a multi-ingredient supplement (immunonutrition) will reduce UC disease severity.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Reduced inflammatory cytokines cytokines will be isolated from blood analysis 2 months
Secondary Improved microbiome/ increased Short-Chain Fatty acid (SCFA) counts SCFA will be isolated from stool sample. SCFAs are anti-inflammatory components generated in the colon. The SCFAs looked at include acetate, lactate, propionate, butyrate, and isobutyrate. 2 months
Secondary Reduced bowel movements per day Many with Ulcerative colitis can experience 10+ bowel movements per day. This intervention is aiming to reduce the total number of bowel movements per day 2 months
Secondary Decreased intestinal cramping/ pain Many with ulcerative colitis experience constant intestinal cramping. This intervention is geared towards reducing pain and discomfort for the participants 2 months
