Observational, Prospective, Multicentric Study of the Effect of Bifidobacterium Longum 35624 on Quality of Life of Patients With Irritable Bowel Syndrome

The main objective of this observatory is to evaluate the effect of Bifidobacterium longum 35624 on the quality of life of IBS patients having different subtypes of transit pattern and different level of symptom severity

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

This observatory evaluate the effect of Bifidobacterium longum 35624 on the quality of life of IBS patients having different subtypes of transit pattern and different level of symptom severity, after a one-month treatment with Bibidobacterium longum 35624, 1x10^9 CFU/capsule, 1 capsule/day.

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.

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
Quality of life assessed with the Irritable Bowel Syndrome Quality Of Life questionnaire (IBS-QOL).
Time Frame: Assessed at baseline and after 1 month of treatment
Change from baseline of quality of life as assessed with the Irritable Bowel Syndrome Quality Of Life questionnaire (IBS-QOL, scoring from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better IBS specific quality of life) in IBS patients having different subtypes of transit pattern and different level of symptom severity.
Assessed at baseline and after 1 month of treatment

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
Quality of life subscores assessed with the Irritable Bowel Syndrome Quality Of Life questionnaire (IBS-QOL).
Time Frame: Assessed at baseline and after 1 month of treatment
Change from baseline of quality of life subscores as assessed with the Irritable Bowel Syndrome Quality Of Life questionnaire (IBS-QOL, scoring from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better IBS specific quality of life) in IBS patients having different subtypes of transit pattern and different level of symptom severity.
Assessed at baseline and after 1 month of treatment
IBS Symptom Severity
Time Frame: Assessed at baseline and after 1 month of treatment
Change of IBS Symptom Severity assessed with the IBS Severity Scoring System (IBS-SSS, scoring from 0 to 500, with higher scores indicating worse severity of IBS symptoms)
Assessed at baseline and after 1 month of treatment
Change of Stool consistency
Time Frame: Assessed at baseline, day10, day 20 and day 30
Change of stool consistency assessed with the Bristol stool scale. The Bristol Stool Chart classifies stool according to their shape and consistency and assigns a sample a number from 1-7 depending on its characteristics, corresponding to constipation normal or diarrhea.
Assessed at baseline, day10, day 20 and day 30
Compliance to the treatment
Time Frame: Assessed after 1 month of treatment
Compliance assessed with patient self-report on a diary
Assessed after 1 month of treatment
Patient satisfaction
Time Frame: Assessed after 1 month of treatment
Patient satisfaction with treatment assessed on a 5-point Likert scale, with proposals ranked in ascending order of satisfaction as 1- Not at all satisfied; 2- Unsatisfied; 3- Somewhat satisfied; 4-Satisfied to 5-Very satisfied
Assessed after 1 month of treatment
Patient's overall impression after treatment
Time Frame: Assessed after 1 month of treatment
The patient's overall impression of how the product has changed his or her daily activities, symptoms, and quality of life, assessed with the Patients' Global Impression of Change (PGIC) scale. PGIC is a 7-point scale describing patient's rating of overall improvement. Change is rated by patients as "very much improved," "much improved," "minimally improved," "no change," "minimally worse," "much worse," or "very much worse."
Assessed after 1 month of treatment
Physician's satisfaction
Time Frame: Assessed after 1 month of treatment
Physician satisfaction with the treatment for his/her patient assessed on a 5-point Likert scale, with proposals ranked in ascending order of satisfaction as 1- Not at all satisfied; 2- Unsatisfied; 3- Somewhat satisfied; 4-Satisfied to 5-Very satisfied
Assessed after 1 month of treatment
