336 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This study will serve as a pilot randomized controlled trial to assess the feasibility of Psilocybin-Assisted Psychotherapy (PAP) in Treating Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). Patients with severe IBS will undergo 3 pre-psychotherapy sessions with two licensed and trained psychedelic therapists, then will be randomized to undergo a guided psychotherapy session with single 25 mg oral "high" dose of psilocybin or a single 100 mg dose of niacin (active placebo) and attend 4 post-therapy integration sessions.
The purpose of this research study is to assess whether morning bright light therapy (BLT) using a wearable device called a Re-Timer could potentially improve Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) symptoms and decrease intestinal permeability (leaky gut). Morning bright light therapy will be administrated through a safe-wearable glasses device called a Re-Timer. The Re-Timer glasses are lightweight and deliver blue-green light at 500nm, mimicking exposure to natural light.
The study will investigate the relationship between fecal bile acids, short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), and the gut microbiota in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). The central hypothesis of this study is that specific shifts in the GI microbiome composition correlate with altered colonic SCFAs and BAs and contribute to IBS symptoms. Primary aims include: (a) identifying GI microbiome signatures in IBS subtypes (IBS-C and IBS-D) and matched controls, and test if microbiome signatures in these groups correlate with fecal SCFAs and bacterial fermentation of an indigestible carbohydrate (inulin) after a dietary challenge (fecal inulin), and (b) determining if GI microbiome signatures in IBS subtypes and controls correlate with fecal BAs or markers of SCFA production (fecal SCFAs or inulin) and test if BAs correlate with fecal SCFAs or inulin. The target population is adults ages 18-65 years meeting Rome IV criteria for IBS (both diarrhea- and constipation-predominant, IBS-D and IBS-C) and asymptomatic controls. Primary outcomes will be fecal bile acid excretion and profile, short-chain fatty acid excretion and profile, colonic transit, and fecal microbiota. Secondary outcomes will be stool characteristics based on responses to validated bowel diaries. Stool samples will be collected from participants during the last 2 days of a 4-day 100 g fat diet and split into 3 samples for fecal microbiota, SCFA, and bile acid analysis.
In this study, the investigators conduct a remote, eight-week, two-arm, randomized controlled trial that assesses the benefits, primarily measured through the irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)-targeted HRQOL (health-related quality of life), of an immersive, disease-targeted virtual reality program compared to a non-immersive virtual reality program for patients with IBS.
Participants with IBS (all subtypes) and with no exclusionary comorbid psychiatric or medical disorders will be enrolled in the study. This study will involve a randomized waitlist control design to investigate the rapid and sustained effects of TRP-8802 following two experimental sessions in which an oral dose of TRP-8802 is administered to participants with IBS. The study will include clinician and participant ratings of depression and anxiety pre- and post-drug-session, monitor and participant ratings of subjective drug effects during and after each drug session. This study comprises approximately a 28-day screening period (Days 28 to 1). After screening and enrollment, participants will be randomized to an immediate treatment group or a delayed treatment group ("waitlist control" condition). Participants in the immediate treatment group will proceed directly into three weeks of baseline and preparation (Days 1 to 18), a 2-dose administration period (Days 22 and 37), integration (Days 23, 30, 38, and 45), the End of Therapy (EOT) visit (Day 52). Participants in the delayed treatment group will wait 8 weeks after enrollment before beginning the study interventions and neuroimaging assessments. As a safety precaution, participants in the delayed treatment group will be assessed weekly via telephone calls or in-person visits during the wait period (i.e., telephone assessments during post-randomization weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7; in-person assessment during post-randomization week 8) to assess suicide risk to determine if intervention is warranted. During week 8, IBS symptoms will also be assessed. At the end of the delay period, all participants in the delayed treatment group will complete the same intervention as the participants in the immediate treatment group. Validated and commonly used assessment tools will be used to evaluate symptoms at baseline and repeatedly after each session. The weekly average of worst daily pain score and weekly stool frequency and consistency for the 7 days immediately prior to EOT visit will be assessed for change from baseline and at the 3-, 6 , and 12- month follow-up visits (Days 120, 240, 365).

The investigators will characterize and compare protein signatures between groups with and without post-infection irritable bowel syndrome (PI-IBS). From previous Healthy Nevada Project (HNP) participants, at least 60 patients with PI-IBS and 60 healthy controls will undergo additional proteomics testing, age, sex and race/ethnicity-matched healthy. The investigators will use proteomic testing to detect, quantify and characterize serum protein biomarkers and protein signatures, and compare biomarkers and signatures between the patient groups of interest. Serum samples will be analyzed by the Nevada Proteomics Center. Samples will first undergo protein digestion, then peptides are separated using liquid chromatography (LC), mass spectral analysis is performed using an Orbitrap Eclipse mass spectrometer (Thermo Scientific, San Jose, CA) using data-independent acquisition (DIA). Library generation and data analysis will be performed using Spectronaut software (Biognosys, Schlieren, Switzerland). The Nevada Proteomics Center and Bioinformatics Center will be engaged during the data analyses comparing biomarkers and signatures between the patient groups of interest. This research aim has the potential to add to our understanding of the underlying mechanisms of PI-IBS and to create reliable differentiating protein biomarkers to better diagnose PI-IBS.
The aim of this study is to better understand how tenapanor affects the metagenomics and metabolomics of patients with irritable bowel syndrome with constipation (IBS-C). Tenapanor is the newest FDA-approved agent for IBS-C. It is a small molecule that inhibits the NHE3 receptor, leading to impaired sodium and water absorption in the intestine. Previous clinical trials comparing tenapanor to placebo showed that a 50 mg dose of tenapanor led to increased bowel movements and decreased abdominal pain. This study consists of an 8-week treatment period in which subjects will ingest one capsule of tenapanor (50 mg per dose), twice daily, and send in stool samples following 4 weeks and 8 weeks of treatment.
This study is being completed to determine if the Mediterranean (MD) and low FODMAP (fermentable, oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides, and polyols) diets are comparable in the effectiveness to treat Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).

Researchers will compare results from parents who use one of two websites chosen by chance, like flipping a coin. One website focuses on child health and safety behaviors. The other website focuses on strategies to promote child wellness behaviors.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is the most common cause of recurrent abdominal pain in children. IBS is a functional gastrointestinal disorder that is linked to motor and sensory physiology, as well as the central nervous system, that presents as abdominal pain with abnormal defecation patterns. This discomfort leads to emotional stress, decreased quality of life, and anxiety. The study proposes that yoga and mindfulness will decrease anxiety and increase quality of life for patients with IBS. The aim of this study is to measure the impact of a brief, at-home, 6-week twice per week Standardized Yoga \& Meditation Program for Stress Reduction program on anxiety, IBS symptoms, and quality of life in children ages 12-21 diagnosed with IBS.
