It is hoped that different forms of the same medicine, called PVP001, PVP002, and PVP003, will help people with celiac disease. Both healthy adults and adults with celiac disease will take part in this study. There are many main aims of the study. - To check if participants have side effects from different forms of the study medicine. These forms are called PVP001 (liquid in a cup), PVP002 capsule, and PVP003 tablet. - To check how well PVP003 breaks down gluten. - To check how much PVP003 participants can take without getting side effects from it. The study is in 4 parts. At the start of each part of the study, the study doctor will check to determine who can take part at the first study visit. Different groups of participants will be in different parts of the study. In all parts of the study, some participants will take 1 of the 3 forms of study medicine. Others will take a placebo. In this study, a placebo will look like the form of study medicine but will not have any medicine in it. This means that a placebo can either look like PVP001 liquid in a cup, the PVP002 tablet, or the PVP003 tablet. In Part 1, different small groups of participants will take lower to higher doses of PVP001 or PVP002 or a placebo. This is to work out the best dose of study medicine to take in other parts of the study. After treatment, participants will regularly visit the clinic to check that they have no problems with their treatment, including any side effects from their treatment. In Part 2, different small groups will take different doses of PVP001 or PVP002 or a placebo, either with or without a meal that has different amounts of gluten in it. This is to check if PVP001 or PVP002 has broken down gluten in the body. Participants will visit the clinic after treatment to check how much gluten has been broken down in the body. In Part 3, different small groups will take different doses of PVP003 or a placebo, either with or without a meal that has gluten in it. This is to check if PVP003 has broken down gluten in the body. Participants will visit the clinic after treatment to check if more gluten has broken down in the body. In Part 4, different small groups will take PVP003 or placebo 3 times a day for 5 days. After treatment, participants will visit the clinic to check that they have no problems with their treatment, including any side effects from their treatment.
To assess the adherence to gluten free diet by measuring faecal and urinary gluten immunogenic peptides (GIP). This will provide an objective measure for adherence.
Recent studies have shown that FODMAPs (Fermentable Oligosaccharides, Disaccharides, Monosaccharides, and Polyols) free diet is efficient in subjects with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD) and celiac disease (CD) can experience functional gastrointestinal symptoms not related to inflammation, but data about the use of low FODMAPs diet in these settings are still scarce. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the usefulness of a low FODMAPs diet in patients with IBS, non-active IBD and CD on strict gluten-free diet (GFD). A low FODMAPs diet could be a valid option to contrast abdominal symptoms in patients with IBS, non-active IBD and CD on GFD, thus improving the quality of life and the social relations.
Single Center, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo Controlled, Gluten Challenge Trial in Patients with Well-Controlled Celiac Disease
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical study in non-homozygous human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DQ.2.5+ adults with celiac disease (CeD).
This is a model development, open label, no therapeutic treatment, three sequential group, short term-gluten challenge study in subjects with celiac disease. Immune responses are evaluated following gluten challenge. Approximately fifteen subjects with celiac disease will be enrolled in up to three sequential groups (5 subjects per group).
Engagement in regular physical activity (PA) is associated with a range of physical and psychological benefits among chronic disease populations. Celiac disease is a chronic autoimmune condition that requires strict adherence to a gluten-free diet (GFD) for the best medical outcomes, as well as to prevent detrimental health outcomes including bloating, diarrhea, constipation, and increased risk of intestinal cancers and osteoporosis. Despite following a GFD, individuals with celiac disease often report dissatisfaction with the diet, are less likely to engage in social activities, can have an imbalance in gut bacteria and up to 30% still report negative symptoms (e.g., gastro-intestinal upset). Furthermore, preliminary research revealed that rates of PA among those with celiac disease are dismal, with the majority of participants failing to engage in regular PA. The purpose of this pilot research project is to examine the effects of a 12-week structured exercise program on inactive adults with celiac disease. It is anticipated that compared to those in a wait-list control condition, participants who engage in the 12-week exercise program will report greater improvements in quality of life and experience improved balance of gut bacteria. The findings from this project may reveal an additional strategy to optimize health while living with celiac disease. In addition, results from this study will provide essential pilot data that will inform a grant application for a larger clinical trial to further investigate the role of exercise in the promotion of health and well-being among those with celiac disease.
This study is to characterize the safety and tolerability of an investigational drug called TIMP-GLIA when either one or two intravenous doses are given to subjects with celiac disease. The way the body reacts to TIMP-GLIA is being checked by laboratory tests of the blood and urine, and study subject health will also be monitored by vital signs such as blood pressure, electrocardiogram (ECG), and physical examination.
Celiac disease (or gluten intolerance) is recognized as one of the most common chronic diseases: prevalence of 1 in 100 to 1/300 people in Europe and the United States. To date, the treatment consists of a total elimination of any source of gluten from the diet. This eviction generates many daily constraints that would explain that more than 50% of patients do not follow this diet correctly. Hidden sources of gluten in a number of foods also carry the burden of this difficulty in effective exclusion. The objective of the ProtAlSafe study is to develop an innovative nutritional approach in the form of a dietary supplement to improve quality of life of patients. The product is not intended to replace a strict gluten-free diet but to propose a nutritional approach in the form of a dietary supplement to improve quality of life of patients. The expected benefits for people consuming the test product are an overall improvement in quality of life and an improvement in biological markers (intestinal permeability, chronic inflammation, etc.) associated with celiac disease.
