Bacillus Subtilis and Enterococcus Faecium Probiotic Plus Lipid-Lowering Therapy for Hypertriglyceridemic Acute Pancreatitis: A Prospective RCT
2026년 7월 18일 업데이트: Jianyin Zhou
Effect of Bacillus Subtilis and Enterococcus Faecium Combination Therapy Combined With Conventional Lipid-Lowering Treatment on Triglyceride Levels in Patients With Hypertriglyceridemic Acute Pancreatitis: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial
Background: Hypertriglyceridemia-associated acute pancreatitis (HTG-AP) has become the second most common cause of acute pancreatitis in China, accounting for up to 42.4% of cases, with high recurrence rates and substantial disease burden. Disease severity and recurrence risk are potentially linked to triglyceride (TG) levels. Current lipid-lowering strategies have limitations in efficacy, onset speed, or safety. Increasing evidence suggests that gut microbiota dysbiosis and impaired intestinal barrier function contribute to lipid metabolism regulation and systemic inflammation in HTG-AP patients. Probiotic supplementation may offer a novel therapeutic approach by modulating gut microbiota, improving lipid metabolism, and alleviating inflammation.
Objective: To evaluate whether adjunctive treatment with Bacillus subtilis and Enterococcus faecium enteric-coated capsules (LCBE) reduces serum TG and inflammatory markers and improves clinical outcomes in mild to moderate HTG-AP patients.
Methods: This is a prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded endpoint (PROBE design), single-center, parallel-group clinical trial. A total of 180 eligible participants will be randomized 1:1 to the intervention group (standard therapy plus oral LCBE 500 mg three times daily for 28 days) or control group (standard therapy alone). The primary endpoints are serum TG, C-reactive protein (CRP), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels on day 5 post-intervention. Secondary endpoints include TG normalization rate (<1.7 mmol/L), lipid profile, inflammatory markers, glucose metabolism parameters, gut microbiota composition, intestinal barrier integrity, symptom relief, length of hospital stay, healthcare costs, quality of life, and safety.
Expected Impact: This study aims to provide high-level evidence for probiotic adjunctive therapy in HTG-AP and to explore underlying mechanisms from the perspective of gut microbiota modulation.

상세 설명
Rationale:
Timely reduction of serum TG is critical for improving prognosis in HTG-AP. However, conventional therapies-including fibrates, insulin, heparin, and blood purification-have limitations related to onset speed, invasiveness, cost, and adverse effects. Preclinical and clinical studies suggest that Bacillus subtilisand Enterococcus faecium(LCBE) can improve lipid metabolism, restore gut microbial balance, enhance intestinal barrier function, and reduce systemic inflammation. Nevertheless, robust prospective RCT evidence focusing on TG dynamics in HTG-AP remains lacking.
Study Population and Setting:
Adult patients (18-65 years) diagnosed with mild HTG-AP (serum TG ≥11.3 mmol/L or 5.65-11.3 mmol/L with lactescent serum) within 72 hours of symptom onset will be enrolled from the Department of Gastroenterology, Zhongshan Hospital, Xiamen University. Patients with severe or moderately severe AP, other etiologies of AP, significant organ dysfunction, pregnancy, immunosuppression, diabetes mellitus, lactose intolerance, or recent use of antibiotics/probiotics will be excluded.
Intervention and Follow-up:
Participants will receive standard care according to the 2021 Chinese Expert Consensus on Emergency Management of HTG-AP, including fenofibrate, low-molecular-weight heparin, fluid resuscitation, somatostatin, ulinastatin, proton-pump inhibitors, nutritional support, and pain management. In addition, the intervention group will receive LCBE 500 mg (2 capsules) orally three times daily for 28 days. Follow-up visits are scheduled at baseline, day 5, day 14, and day 28, with serial assessments of TG, lipid profile, inflammatory cytokines, glucose metabolism, gut microbiota (16S rRNA sequencing), intestinal barrier biomarkers (D-lactate, endotoxin, DAO, zonulin), clinical symptoms, severity scores, and quality of life (EQ-5D-5L).
Statistical Analysis:
Analyses will follow the intention-to-treat principle, with per-protocol analysis as sensitivity analysis. Continuous variables will be compared using t-tests or Mann-Whitney U tests; categorical variables will be analyzed using chi-square or Fisher's exact tests. Microbiome diversity will be assessed using Shannon index, PERMANOVA, and LEfSe analysis. An independent Data Safety Monitoring Board will conduct one interim analysis when 50% enrollment is reached.
Ethical Considerations:
The study will be conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki and Good Clinical Practice guidelines. Written informed consent will be obtained from all participants. The trial is approved by the Institutional Review Board of Zhongshan Hospital, Xiamen University

Time to Abdominal Pain Relief
기간: From randomization up to Day 28 (±2 days)
|
Abdominal pain intensity will be assessed every 2 hours by nursing staff using a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS; 0-100 mm) blinded to group allocation.
Abdominal pain relief is defined as the time from randomization to the first instance when the VAS score decreases to ≤30 (mild pain or less) and remains at or below this level for at least 12 consecutive hours without rescue analgesia.
Patients requiring surgical intervention, discharged, or experiencing a serious adverse event prior to achieving relief will be censored at the time of that event.
Data will be presented as Median Time (Interquartile Range, IQR)

Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)
기간: From randomization to end of treatment (Day 28 ± 2 days)
|
Adverse Events (AEs) and Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) will be monitored continuously from the time of informed consent until the end of the follow-up period (Day 28).
AEs will be classified according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE), version 6.0.
The severity (Grade 1-5) and relationship to the study intervention (certain, probable/likely, possible, unlikely, unrelated) will be assessed by the investigator.
SAEs will be reported to the Institutional Review Board and the sponsor within 24 hours.
The incidence will be calculated as the number of participants experiencing at least one event divided by the total number of participants in each arm.
Data will be presented as the number of participants (n) and percentage (%) with corresponding 95% Confidence Intervals.

Quality of Life Assessed by EuroQol 5-Dimension 5-Level (EQ-5D-5L) Utility Score
기간: Baseline through Day 28 (±2 days)
|
Health-related quality of life (HRQoL) will be assessed using the EuroQol 5-Dimension 5-Level (EQ-5D-5L) questionnaire, a standardized generic instrument covering 5 domains: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression.
Participants will complete the questionnaire independently at Baseline, Day 5 (±2 days), Day 14 (±2 days), and Day 28 (±2 days) under the guidance of study staff blinded to group allocation.
Utility scores will be derived using the Chinese adult population preference-based scoring algorithm, with a theoretical range of -0.391 (worst possible health state, equivalent to coma/death) to 1.0 (full health).
Higher scores indicate better HRQoL; lower scores reflect greater impairment in daily functioning and well-being.
Data will be presented as Mean (Standard Deviation, SD), with sensitivity analyses using Median (Interquartile Range, IQR) if data deviate from normality.
