Retrospective Study of IBS-D Patients Previously Receiving SBI

September 9, 2016 updated by: Entera Health, Inc

Retrospective Study of Irritable Bowel Syndrome With Diarrhea (IBS-D) Patients Previously Receiving Serum-derived Bovine Serum Immunoglobulin (SBI)

This is a retrospective study designed to gather outcomes data from existing medical charts from patients who have taken EnteraGam for management of their IBS-D for at least eight weeks. Data from two study periods will be collected: (1) the time during which the Standard of Care (SOC) therapy (i.e., prescribed or over-the-counter as well as FDA-approved or non-approved agents) that is used immediately prior to prescribing EnteraGam; and (2) the time during which EnteraGam is used as therapy.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

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.

Detailed Description

  • The first collection of information (Visit 1 - Chart Report Form) will be for the visit at which the SOC therapy, utilized immediately before the introduction of EnteraGam, was initiated. This data point will serve as the baseline for that SOC therapy.
  • The second collection of information (Visit 2 - Chart Report Form) will be for the visit at which the original prescription for EnteraGam was written and the patient was instructed to begin the therapy. Captured data will consist of information contained in the patient's chart for a minimum of eight weeks and a maximum of 12 weeks prior to initiation of EnteraGam therapy. This data point will serve as the baseline for initiation of EnteraGam therapy.
  • The third collection point (Visit 3 - Chart Report Form) will be at the next patient visit to the clinic - provided that visit is a minimum of eight weeks following initiation of EnteraGam therapy.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

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 and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Patients who have failed on Standard of Care and then taken EnteraGam for management of their IBS-D for at least eight weeks.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patient is at least 18 years of age at the initiation of EnteraGam therapy.
  • Patient has been previously diagnosed with IBS-D by the physician and has undergone at least one course of SOC treatment prior to receiving EnteraGam.
  • Patient has completed a minimum of eight weeks of EnteraGam therapy for his / her IBS-D.
  • There is recorded information regarding patient response to SOC or EnteraGam for stool frequency/consistency and abdominal pain

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patient has not taken EnteraGam for a minimum of eight weeks or has not used the product according to the directions provided by the prescribing physician.
  • Patient has not consented to the use of their clinical data in this retrospective clinical investigation.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
