The Efficacy of AZD1722 in Constipation Predominant Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS-C)

March 31, 2020 updated by: Ardelyx

A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of AZD1722 for the Treatment of Constipation-Predominant Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS-C)

This phase 2, randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of three dose levels of AZD1722 in subjects with constipation predominant IBS (IBS-C) as defined by the ROME III criteria and who have active disease as determined during a two-week screening period. Subjects who qualify and are randomized into the study will receive 5, 20, or 50 mg of AZD1722 BID or placebo BID for 12 consecutive weeks. At the end of this treatment period, subjects will be followed for an additional 4 weeks.

Study Overview

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 75 years (ADULT, OLDER_ADULT)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study
