Comparing the Effectiveness of 2 Diets for Patients With Irritable Bowel Syndrome

30 mars 2016 uppdaterad av: Shanti Eswaran, University of Michigan

Comparing the Effectiveness of Two Diets to Control the Symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome With Diarrhea (IBS-D): a Randomized, Controlled Trial and Gastrointestinal Microbiome Analysis

The purpose of the study is to find out if the diets often recommended for patients with Irritable Bowel Syndrome with diarrhea (IBS-D) provide adequate relief. The study will compare two diets that are used to treat IBS-D symptoms to see which one is more effective. The study will also measure the effect of these diets on the bowel flora, which are the good bacteria that inhabit the bowels in healthy people.

Detaljerad beskrivning

As irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) symptoms are often refractory to conventional therapies, there has been increasing interest in the role of diet in IBS. Certain foods may exacerbate symptoms of IBS. Thus, restricted diets have recently gained attention for the treatment IBS. The mechanism by which symptoms are improved is unclear, but these diets may improve symptoms by exerting changes on the GI microbiome.

Aims:

Primary Objective:

-Compare the proportion of patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D) reporting adequate relief on Diet 1 vs Diet 2

Secondary Objectives:

  • Assess the effects of these diets in patients with diarrhea-predominant IBS on the gastrointestinal microbiota and blood based biomarkers.
  • Compare the efficacy of Diet 1 vs Diet 2 in patients with diarrhea-predominant IBS on pre-specified clinical and quality of life endpoints.

Methods:

This is a prospective randomized control trial of adults meeting the Rome III criteria for irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea (IBS-D). After a 2 week screening period and randomization, during which the severity of symptoms will be assessed and eligibility determined, patients will be randomized to Diet 1 vs Diet 2 for a period of 4 weeks.

The primary endpoint will be a comparison of the proportion of patients in each group reporting adequate relief of their IBS symptoms. For the secondary clinical outcomes, a responder definition incorporating abdominal pain and stool consistency as proposed by the FDA will be utilized. Key IBS-D symptoms will be assessed daily and adequate relief of IBS-D symptoms will be assessed weekly during the randomization period. We will also determine if a difference can be detected with high probability in the relative abundance and variety of specific bacterial taxa between the two groups before and after the 4 week dietary intervention. In addition, blood samples will be collected before and after randomization to measure relevant biomarkers of immune activation.

Vapen och interventioner

Deltagargrupp / Arm
Intervention / Behandling
Aktiv komparator: Diet 1
Patients randomized to this arm will receive both written and face-to-face advice about how the components of Diet 1 can be used to control their IBS symptoms.
After a 14 day screening period, subjects will be randomized to 1 of 2 diets to treat their IBS symptoms. They will receive dietary instruction and are expected to remain on this diet for 4 weeks.
Aktiv komparator: Diet 2
Patients randomized to this arm will receive both written and face-to-face advice about how the components of Diet 2 can be used to control their IBS symptoms.
After a 14 day screening period, subjects will be randomized to 1 of 2 diets to treat their IBS symptoms. They will receive dietary instruction and are expected to remain on this diet for 4 weeks.

Resultatmått
Åtgärdsbeskrivning
Tidsram
Composite endpoint
Tidsram: 4 weeks
Composite endpoint: A responder will report a ≥30% reduction in mean daily abdominal pain score and a decrease in mean daily BSFS value of ≥1 compared to baseline for ≥2 of 4 treatment weeks. The proportion of responders between the 2 groups will be compared.
4 weeks
Abdominal Pain
Tidsram: 4 weeks
An abdominal pain responder will report a ≥30% reduction in mean daily abdominal pain score compared to baseline for ≥2 of 4 treatment weeks. The proportion of responders between the two groups will be compared. Between group differences in the proportion of patients with a ≥30% reduction in mean daily abdominal pain score compared to baseline at the end of each treatment week will also be assessed.
4 weeks
Stool consistency
Tidsram: 4 weeks
For stool consistency, a responder will be defined as one who reports a decrease in mean daily BSFS value of 1 or more compared to baseline for ≥2 of 4 treatment weeks. The proportion of responders between the 2 groups will be compared. Between group differences in the proportion of patients with a decrease in BSFS value of ≥1 compared to baseline at the end of each treatment week will also be assessed.
4 weeks
Stool frequency
Tidsram: 4 weeks
The number of bowel movements will be recorded each day by IVRS. The change from baseline in mean daily stool frequency for each treatment week will be compared for the two groups.
4 weeks
Individual symptoms
Tidsram: 4 weeks
The change from baseline in daily NRS scores averaged over each treatment week for abdominal discomfort, urgency, bloating, and fatigue will compared between the 2 groups.
4 weeks
Quality of life measures
Tidsram: 4 weeks
IBS-Quality of Life scores, Hospital Depression Anxiety Scores, Work Productivity and Activity Impairment questionnaire, and Sleep Assessment questionnaires will be compared between groups before and after the dietary intervention.
4 weeks
Stool Microbiome
Tidsram: 4 weeks

The effect of these 2 diets on the gut microbiome (number and species) in the context of IBS is not known. A change in the microbiota may be a mechanism through which symptom response is mediated.

We will be measuring the shift in the relative abundance (richness) and variety (diversity) of gut microbial taxa in patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D) in response to dietary intervention. Stool microbiome would be collected and analyzed using the PhyloChip™ Assay (Second Genome Inc., San Bruno, CA).

4 weeks
Serum Biomarker Panel
Tidsram: 4 weeks
Recent attempts have been made to identify a serological biomarker profile (Prometheus Therapeutics & Diagnostics, San Diego, CA) which accurately identifies patients with IBS. We intend to perform a biomarker test panel at enrollment in all study subjects to assess whether specific combinations of biomarkers can positively or negatively predict response to either diet.
