Official title
A Pilot Study of the Safety and Efficacy of AST-120 in the Treatment of Active Pouchitis
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The aim of the study is to assess the safety and efficacy of an investigational agent, AST-120, in treating patients with active pouchitis. This is an open-label trial which means that all patients will receive AST-120 in 2g sachets (packets)three times a day for 4 weeks. All antibiotics, probiotics and nutritional agents must have been discontinued for at least 2 weeks prior to study entry. An initial group of 10 patients will be enrolled. If there are no serious adverse events associated with the study drug and at least 3 of the 10 patients respond, a second group of 10 patients will be enrolled. In the second group of patients, those patients who are considered responders or who are in remission are eligible to receive open-label AST-120 for as long as response is maintained up to a maximum of 52 weeks. Patients will have clinic visits at the start of the study and at week 4. If continuing on open label AST-120 after week 4, patients will have clinic visits every 12 weeks to assess the continuing safety and efficacy of AST-120. Endoscopies will be performed at the start of the study, week 4, week 28, week 52 or early termination.
