methane and Inflammatory Bowel Diseases

methane has been researched along with Inflammatory Bowel Diseases in 12 studies

Methane: The simplest saturated hydrocarbon. It is a colorless, flammable gas, slightly soluble in water. It is one of the chief constituents of natural gas and is formed in the decomposition of organic matter. (Grant & Hackh's Chemical Dictionary, 5th ed)
methane : A one-carbon compound in which the carbon is attached by single bonds to four hydrogen atoms. It is a colourless, odourless, non-toxic but flammable gas (b.p. -161degreeC).

Inflammatory Bowel Diseases: Chronic, non-specific inflammation of the GASTROINTESTINAL TRACT. Etiology may be genetic or environmental. This term includes CROHN DISEASE and ULCERATIVE COLITIS.

Trial Outcomes

Change From Baseline in Breath Methane Production Based on a Single-point Breath Methane Test

Change in exhaled methane level as a potential predictor of constipation improvement will be evaluated by comparing single-point breath tests pre- and post-treatment. (NCT03763175)
Timeframe: After completing course of SYN-010

Interventionparticles per million (Mean)
SYN-010 21 mg-22.623
SYN-010 42 mg-4.785
Placebo-10.081

Change From Baseline in the Weekly Average Number of Completely Spontaneous Bowel Movements (CSBM) Compared to the 12-week Treatment Period

Subjects will record their daily bowel movements throughout the duration of the study. Change in weekly average number of CSBMs will be evaluated by comparing reported values pre- and post-treatment. (NCT03763175)
Timeframe: After completing 12-week course of SYN-010

Mean Change From Baseline in the Area-under-the-curve (AUC) of Breath Methane Production, Based on the 120-minute Lactulose Breath Test.

Change in exhaled methane level as a potential predictor of constipation improvement will be evaluated by comparing lactulose breath tests pre- and post-treatment. (NCT03763175)

Proportion of Overall Abdominal Pain Intensity Responders During the 12-week Treatment Period

An overall abdominal pain intensity responder is defined as a patient with a weekly abdominal pain intensity response in at least 50% of the weeks of treatment (6 of 12 weeks). A weekly response abdominal pain intensity response is defined as a decrease in the patient's weekly average score for worst abdominal pain in the past 24 hours of at least 30% compared to baseline, with stool frequency unchanged or improved compared with baseline.
