Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Functional Dyspepsia (Epigastric Pain Syndrome and Postprandial Distress Syndrome Subtypes) (FD-CBT)

Multimodal Phenotyping of Functional Dyspepsia: Controlled Trial on Response to Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy in Subtypes of Epigastric Pain Syndrome and Postprandial Discomfort Syndrome

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether adding Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to standard medical treatment can improve symptoms in adults with Functional Dyspepsia. The study includes adults aged 18 to 65 years diagnosed with Functional Dyspepsia, classified as Epigastric Pain Syndrome or Postprandial Distress Syndrome.

The main questions it aims to answer are:

Does Cognitive Behavioral Therapy added to standard treatment reduce gastrointestinal symptoms compared with standard treatment alone? Do patients with Postprandial Distress Syndrome and Epigastric Pain Syndrome respond differently to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy? Researchers will compare optimized standard medical treatment alone to optimized standard treatment combined with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to see if the addition of CBT leads to greater symptom improvement and better quality of life.

Participants will:

Be randomly assigned to receive either standard medical treatment alone or standard treatment plus Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Take part in clinical visits and complete questionnaires about gastrointestinal symptoms, psychological well-being, and quality of life Provide blood, saliva, and stool samples at several time points over a 12-month follow-up period

調査の概要

詳細な説明

Functional Dyspepsia is a chronic disorder of gut-brain interaction characterized by persistent upper gastrointestinal symptoms in the absence of structural disease. It is commonly classified into Epigastric Pain Syndrome and Postprandial Distress Syndrome, which may reflect partially distinct underlying mechanisms. Standard medical treatments often provide incomplete symptom relief, and growing evidence supports a role for psychological factors and gut-brain axis dysregulation in symptom generation and persistence.

This randomized controlled trial investigates the effectiveness of adding a manualized Cognitive Behavioral Therapy program to optimized standard medical treatment in adults with Functional Dyspepsia. Participants are stratified by dyspepsia subtype and randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive either optimized standard treatment alone or optimized standard treatment combined with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Outcome assessors are blinded to treatment allocation.

The Cognitive Behavioral Therapy intervention is delivered individually by trained therapists and focuses on psychoeducation, cognitive restructuring, stress management, coping strategies, and behavioral and interoceptive exposure. The intervention is designed to target symptom-related cognitions, emotional responses, and behavioral patterns that may contribute to symptom persistence.

In addition to evaluating clinical efficacy, the study adopts a multimodal approach to characterize biological, psychological, and clinical factors associated with treatment response. Data collection includes clinical and psychological assessments and the collection of biological samples to explore markers related to inflammation, stress regulation, gut barrier function, and gut microbiota composition and activity. Measurements are obtained at baseline and during follow-up to assess changes over time and their relationship with symptom improvement.

The study aims to identify predictors of response to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and to explore differences between Epigastric Pain Syndrome and Postprandial Distress Syndrome. By integrating clinical, psychological, and biological data, the trial seeks to support a more personalized treatment approach for Functional Dyspepsia and to improve the targeting of psychological interventions in clinical practice.

Participants receive guideline-based standard medical treatment for Functional Dyspepsia, including proton pump inhibitors, antiacids, and prokinetics at recommended doses. This intervention does not include any psychological or behavioral therapy.
実験的:Cognitive Behavioral Therapy + Optimized Standard Treatment (CBT + OPT)
Participants receive the same optimized standard medical treatment as the OPT arm, plus a manualized Cognitive Behavioral Therapy program.

Sessions include psychoeducation, cognitive restructuring, stress management, coping strategies, interoceptive and behavioral exposure, relaxation, and nutritional integration. Adherence and engagement are monitored throughout the study.

メジャーの説明
時間枠
Reduction in gastrointestinal symptom severity as assessed by the Leeds Dyspepsia Questionnaire - Short Form (LDQ-SF)
時間枠:Baseline (T0), 3 months (T1 - end of intervention), 6 months (T2 - intermediate follow-up), 12 months (T3 - final follow-up)
The primary outcome is a statistically significant reduction in total LDQ-SF score in patients treated with CBT + optimized pharmacological treatment (OPT) compared to OPT alone, with an expected greater benefit in the Postprandial Distress Syndrome (PDS) subtype compared to the Epigastric Pain Syndrome (EPS) subtype. The LDQ-SF assesses the frequency and severity of dyspeptic symptoms (epigastric pain, heartburn, nausea, vomiting, early satiety, bloating, regurgitation, postprandial discomfort); scores range from 0 to 32, with higher scores indicating greater symptom severity. Responder status is defined as a ≥30-50% reduction in total LDQ-SF score from baseline.
