Filter by:This trial will evaluate the effect of ASP7147 on daily abdominal pain due to IBS-D during 4 weeks of treatment. It will also evaluate safety and tolerability in patients with IBS-D over the 4-week treatment period.
This study is a withdrawal randomized clinical trail to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of 1.1 chemical drugs N-acetyl glucosamine on Chinese IBS-D patients coming from four centers in chongqing. 180 IBS-D patients in this research are accord with the Rome III diagnostic criteria, screening/import period pain intensity scores of the NRS week mean value are 3.0 plus and the days which at least more than one time a stool type are 6 or 7 type over 2 days/week. Test cycle includes screening/import period (2 weeks), open treatment period (8 weeks), a double-blind placebo-controlled randomized withdrawal period (8 weeks), the main outcome measures are pain intensity (NRS score 11 point scale) and stool type ( Bristol type). And secondary endpoints included overall symptoms sensory scores, defecation frequency, abdominal distension, mucous stool and quality of life parameters (IBS-36 scale). After the end of the treatment period, the participants whose pain intensity and stool type are effective subjects into a randomized withdrawal period, analysis and comparison of the difference between treatment group and placebo group withdrawal rate and curative effect index score reduces.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of 5g of Daikenchuto (TU-100) three times per day (Daikenchuto [TU-100] is a botanical agent that modulates gastrointestinal nerves), and placebo on rectal sensation (sensation ratings of urgency to defecate and sensation threshold for pain) in response to rectal balloon distension by barostat in patients with IBS.
The Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine is conducting a research study on Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), a common condition in North America. It is a long term, recurring gastrointestinal disorder that is estimated to affect 30% of the general population. IBS is characterized by abdominal pain and cramps, and bowel dysfunction such as diarrhea and bloating. The medicines that are currently used to help people with IBS are not as effective as we would like them to be. These medicines are usually only prescribed to reduce the pain of IBS and not actually treat the disorder itself. Recently, scientists have found that probiotics (beneficial bacteria that live inside humans) may help reduce the painful symptoms and diarrhea that are part of IBS. This research is being conducted to determine whether this particular combination of three probiotic bacteria (named Lactobacillus gasseri, Bifidobacterium bifidum and Bifidobacterium longum) will reduce the symptoms of severe IBS.
A two month intervention trial assessing the effect of Vetal Laban containing L. acidophilus on enhancing functional bowel wellbeing among subjects with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
The objective is to evaluate whether ONO-2952 modulates visceral pain perception produced by rectal distention in female patients with IBS-D
In patients with IBS, will supplementation with a probiotic demonstrate symptomatic efficacy and will the probiotic influence gut microflora and thus improve clinical outcomes, as compared to no intervention.
The primary goal of this study is to test the efficacy of emotional awareness and expression training (EAET), a novel emotional processing intervention that the investigators have developed, for people with IBS. In this randomized, controlled trial, the investigators will compare EAET to a standard intervention that teaches the conceptually opposite approach—relaxation training (RT)—and test how both of these interventions compare to a wait-list control condition. The investigators hypothesize that individuals in the EAET group will demonstrate greater improvement in their IBS symptom severity, psychological functioning, quality of life, and health care utilization at 4 and 12-week follow-up time points, compared to individuals in the wait-list control group. It is also expected that both of the active interventions (EAET and RT) will be more efficacious than the wait-list control condition.
This clinical trial is an international, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group trial comparing one dose of linaclotide to placebo. Approximately 800 patients with a diagnosis of IBS-C (modified Rome III criteria) will be randomized at up to 60 trial centers in China, Australia, and New Zealand. The trial will consist of up to 21 days of screening, 14 to 21 days of pre-treatment, 12 weeks of double-blind treatment, and 2 weeks of follow-up. At the end of the Pre-treatment Period, patients meeting the entry criteria for this trial will be randomized to one of two double-blind treatment groups: 290 ug linaclotide, or placebo (1:1).
To demonstrate the superiority of YM060 to a placebo in global assessment of relief of overall IBS symptoms and stool form normalization, and to evaluate safety in female patients with diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (D-IBS).
