Comparison of Clenpiq vs Golytely Bowel Preparation

February 11, 2021 updated by: Carol Burke, MD, The Cleveland Clinic

Randomized Comparison of the Impact of Sodium Picosulfate, Magnesium Oxide and Anhydrous Citric Acid Versus Polyethylene Glycol Bowel Preparation on Inpatient Colonoscopy Quality Parameters

This is a prospective randomized study which will be done at main campus Cleveland Clinic. The investigators will be comparing the colon cleansing by the Boston Bowel Preparation Scale in participants undergoing colonoscopy as an inpatient at our hospital. Participants will be randomized to the the standard of care (4 Liter polyethylene glycol based preparation) or a low volume bowel preparation (sodium picosulfate, a stimulant laxative, magnesium oxide and anhydrous citric acid (SP/MC)). Both agents will either be administered as full dose the evening before or as split-dose on the evening before and on the day of the procedure.

Study Overview

Status

Status

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

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 purpose of our study is to determine if a 4L bowel cleansing agent is more effective than a low volume bowel preparation, and if the time of dosing (single dose night before vs split dose) of the bowel preparation results in better bowel cleansing in participants undergoing colonoscopy. Eligible participants undergoing colonoscopy with conscious sedation will be randomly assigned to one of two bowel preparations and one of two dosing schemas of bowel preparation. Participants not eligible for conscious sedation and are undergoing colonoscopy with general anesthesia will be randomized only to the single dose arms of the study. Participants will complete a questionnaire while drinking the bowel preparation to determine timing and tolerability of the bowel preparation.

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.

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.

Participants in Group A will begin drinking the bowel preparation Golytely (4 liter Polyethylene glycol based preparation) at 4:00 PM on the day before colonoscopy - an 8-ounce glass of the bowel preparation every 10 minutes. Participants must finish drinking the bowel preparation by 7:00 PM, and may continue to drink clear liquids until midnight.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

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.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Percentage of Participants With Satisfactory Bowel Cleansing
Time Frame: 1 day
Bowel cleansing efficacy will be measured using the Boston Bowel Prep Scale (BBPS). The BBPS divides the colon into 3 segments (right, transverse, left); each is scored from 0-3 (0=colonic mucosa not seen due to solid stool that cannot be cleared, 1=only a portion of the mucosa of the colon segment is seen due to staining, residual stool and/or opaque liquid, 2=minor amount of residual staining, small fragments of stool and/or opaque liquid but mucosa of colon segment is seen well, and 3=entire mucosa is seen well with no residual staining, small fragments of stool or opaque liquid). A total BBPS score of 6 or greater AND 2 or greater in all segments will be defined as satisfactory bowel prep. BBPS score of less than 6 or less than 2 in any segment of the colon will be taken as unsatisfactory bowel cleansing in the final analysis.
1 day

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Proportion of Participants Requiring a Repeat Colonoscopy
Time Frame: 1 day
Participants requiring a repeat procedure due to unsatisfactory bowel prep
