Inulin for Healthy Subjects

West Lafayette, Indiana
The main aim of this study is to investigate differences in rate, extent of change and persistence of the gut microbiota in healthy adult volunteers in response to native chicory inulin. Along with investigating the impact of native chicory on bowl habits, mood and appetite. The two main questions this study aims to answer: * To what extent do differences exist in rate of change over time between individuals in gut microbiota response (Bifidobacterium growth) to native chicory inulin supplementation. * To what extent do differences exist between individuals in persistence of the gut microbiota upon stopping supplementation. The effects of native chicory inulin on gut microbiota response will be compared to a maltodextrin placebo to sure changes in gut microbiota result directly from chicory inulin supplementation. Participants will firstly complete a one-week run-in phase to establish baseline data and will then be allocated to either native chicory inulin or maltodextrin supplementation for 6 weeks. Inulin will be delivered at 12 g/day split into 2 x 6g portions. Maltodextrin will be calorie matched at 6 g/day split into 2 x 3g portions. This will then be followed by a 6 week post-supplementation phase. Fecal and blood samples will be collected regularly throughout all phases for analysis of gut microbiota and compounds of interest. Participants will also record any changes in gastrointestinal sensation, bowel habits and mood in a diary. Changes in appetite sensation will also measured.

Prebiotics for Gut Health

Chicago, Illinois
According to International Scientific Association for Probiotics and Prebiotics (ISAPP), a prebiotic is defined as a substrate that is selectively utilized by host microorganisms conferring a health benefit (Gibson et al, 2017). Fibers/ Prebiotics are known to have several beneficial effects on human health via gut. They remain mostly undigested in upper GI and reach colon where they are fermented by resident gut microbiota. This leads to the production of several beneficial metabolites such as short chain fatty acids and others which are implied in human health. The aim of this study is to examine the effects of combinations of two prebiotics on gut microbiota modulation and Quality of Life at two doses.

Probiotic + Prebiotic for Fatty Liver in HIV/AIDS

Nashville, Tennessee
Persons with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) have higher risk of developing fatty liver disease (NAFLD) than HIV-negative persons but the reasons for this discrepancy are not known. Changes in the intestinal microbiome may contribute to the development of NAFLD in persons with HIV (PWH) through impairment of barrier function of the intestinal wall and by producing metabolites that are harmful to the liver. This project will test the hypothesis that HIV-related NAFLD is associated with differences in the intestinal microbiome and that supplementation with probiotic and prebiotic fiber will lead to improvements in markers of NAFLD in PWH.

Prebiotics for PTSD and Liver Cirrhosis

Richmond, Virginia
Despite medical advancements, PTSD remains a major issue in Veterans1. Current treatment strategies have relatively poor adherence. In patients with PTSD and cirrhosis, there is greater cognitive impairment as well as changes in gut microbiome structure and function2,3. In addition, when there is concomitant cirrhosis, medication-related treatment options become even narrower from a safety and tolerability perspective and cognitive issues pertaining to cirrhosis could impact participation3. Changes in gut microbiome in Veterans with cirrhosis and PTSD compared to those with cirrhosis without PTSD is characterized by a greater relative expression of pathobionts and reduction in stool microbiome diversity with reduction in bacteria that produce beneficial short chain fatty acids (SCFA)2. Modulation of the gut microbiome in patients with cirrhosis and PTSD may be an important therapeutic target. In prior studies with cirrhosis alone, microbial modulation using diet, antibiotics such as rifaximin, probiotics, and fecal microbiota transplant have improved gut microbial diversity and clinical outcomes in some cases4,5. In patients with cirrhosis without PTSD and in patients with PTSD without cirrhosis there is emerging evidence regarding prebiotics and other forms of gut microbial modulation. Prebiotics are such an example6. Prebiotics are natural fibers derived from carbohydrates and can be beneficial to gut microbiota (good bacteria in the gut)6. Resistant starches (RS) are dietary fiber prebiotics found naturally in many foods including potatoes, plantains, and legumes6,7. In addition to being highly accessible, RS have been shown to be well tolerated with few adverse reactions. While no studies of RS exist in PTSD + cirrhosis patients, a meta-analysis of RS in IBD has shown RS to be an effective treatment in both animal and clinical studies where improvements in clinical remission and reduced mucosal damage were found7. However, there is insufficient data regarding patients with PTSD and cirrhosis regarding gut microbial structure and function modulation with dietary supplements such as resistant starches. These starches can improve SCFA production in elderly subjects, which could in turn affect the gut-brain axis favorably8.

Prebiotics for Type 1 Diabetes

Saskatoon, Saskatchewan
Evidence suggests that prebiotic fibre can correct dysbiosis, reduce intestinal permeability and improve glycemic control. The investigators hypothesize that microbial changes induced by prebiotics contribute to gut and endocrine adaptations that reduce glucose fluctuations, including less hyper- and hypoglycemia in type 1 diabetes (T1D). The primary objective is to compare the change in frequency of hypoglycemia from baseline to 6 months in n=144 individuals with T1D treated with a 6-month course of prebiotic or placebo as an adjunct to insulin. Secondary objectives will be aimed at understanding the mechanisms by which the prebiotics could affect glycemic control.

Probiotic Lozenges for Oral Hygiene

Toronto, Ontario
Gingivitis is an oral disease condition affecting 50% to 90% of adults globally. Gingivitis is a reversible inflammatory condition caused by the accumulation of dental plaque and the associated disruption of the host-microbial homeostasis. During gingivitis, the microbial community shifts from gram-positive health-associated bacteria, to gram-negative disease associated species. This shift triggers inflammatory responses, leading to tissue damage and, in some cases, progression to periodontitis. A promise area of oral health is treating the oral cavity with gram-positive probiotics to improve oral health. One promising candidate is S. salivarius SALI-10. Typically oral probiotics are dosed to the oral cavity using lozenges. This study is a pre-clinical Phase 0 trial to determine is a lozenge is a viable dosage form for the delivery of salivarius SALI-10 oral probiotics.

Dietary & Supplement Intervention for Perinatal Depression & Anxiety

Toronto, Ontario
Perinatal depression and anxiety (PDA) are the leading causes of maternal mortality in developed countries. Women with a history of depression have a 20 fold higher risk of PDA at subsequent pregnancies. The adverse outcomes extend beyond maternal well-being to long-term deficits in children and families. The gut-brain axis is a newly recognized key player in mental health disorders. Specifically, the microbial composition of the gut along with their metabolites are directly involved in disease onset and course. Recent clinical studies have identified diet as the most powerful environmental factor in manipulating gut microbiome. Given vulnerability and resistance of pregnant women to pharmacotherapy, particularly in those with a predisposition to mood disorders, as well as pregnant women's high motivation and commitment to improving gestational diet, a dietary/supplemental intervention to 'optimize' gut microbiome, is a favored approach in disease management. The study investigators aim to exploit microbial responsiveness to diet together with this maternal motivation, to alter the risk and severity of a universal public health concern that has dire and long-term consequences for new moms and their children. The investigators of this trial, will first study the challenges in pursuing a study aimed at changing the microbiome of pregnant women with a history of mood disorders. Pregnant women in their second trimester will be recruited. Each will be assigned or randomized to one of four groups that will use a combination of diet, supplementation with probiotics, fish oil or no intervention. Each participant will meet with the study team virtually every 3 months until 1 year after delivery. At each study visit participants will be required to complete some questionnaires about their food intake, mood, and other health related measures and will provide a stool sample using the stool collection kits provided. The findings from this study will help strategize for a larger study that will allow for comparison of the effects of diet, and/or supplementation with Omega-3 Fatty Acids (O3FA) and probiotics on the microbiome and the onset and severity of PDA.

Probiotics for Gut Microbiome Imbalance

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
This study aims to evaluate whether probiotics can help maintain a healthy gut microbiome in patients receiving prophylactic antibiotics during elective orthopedic surgery. Antibiotics, while effective in preventing infections, can disrupt the balance of gut bacteria, leading to dysbiosis. The study hypothesizes that the use of probiotics during the perioperative period can prevent or reduce this disruption, supporting gut health and overall well-being. The research seeks to answer whether combining probiotics with routine antibiotic prophylaxis can preserve gut microbiome balance and improve patient outcomes.

Probiotics for Prosthetic Joint Infection

New York, New York
Prosthetic joint infection (PJI) is one of the most devastating complications following total joint arthroplasty (TJA) of the hip and knee. Standard of care (SOC) treatment includes surgery and antimicrobials. Morbidity and mortality remain high despite contemporary treatments. The human body is colonized by billions of organisms, collectively, the microbiome, which is central to healthy immune function. Microbiome disruption, dysbiosis, can impair the immune response to infection. Despite recent evidence that suggests dysbiosis may be implicated in PJI, the role of probiotics in the treatment of PJI is unknown. Perioperative probiotics have been demonstrated to be safe and effective for infection prevention in abdominal surgery. The investigators hypothesize that perioperative probiotics will reduce re-infection in patients treated for PJI. A multi-centered, randomized controlled trial (RCT) at two academic, tertiary care centers will be conducted to determine the impact of probiotics on recurrent infection following treatment for PJI. Controls will receive SOC; study patients will receive a probiotic, started shortly after the initiation of and for the duration of their antibiotic therapy + 7 days, in addition to SOC. Primary outcome is re-operation for recurrent infection within 1 year.

Probiotic for Obesity

Storrs, Connecticut
This is a pilot research study to investigate the effects of a probiotic supplement (L. acidophilus, strain TW01) on substances found in the stool and bloodstream, gut bacteria composition, body composition, as well as any relationship of these substances with markers of inflammation. Lactobacillus acidophilus is commonly found in a variety of fermented foods, including yogurt, cheese, and kefir, due to its ability to produce lactic acid and other substances. This bacterium is generally well-tolerated in healthy individuals and has a longstanding history of safe use. The investigators are doing this pilot study to see if a particular probiotic, called L. acidophilus (strain TW01) and isolated from fermented coffee grounds, can make a positive difference in human gut and overall health. Specifically, the investigators want to look at how this probiotic affects certain substances in human stool and blood, the makeup of the bacteria in the gut, and aspects of body composition. The investigators are also interested in whether these changes relate to markers of inflammation, which can tell us more about their impact on overall health. This probiotic strain has been shown in other studies to be safe and well tolerated, and the investigators hope our research will help us better understand how it works and whether it might support health in humans.

Probiotics for Autism

Montréal, Quebec
Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) present with stereotyped behaviors and often with comorbidities including gastrointestinal symptoms and sleep disturbances. These affect the quality of life of both children and parents. As of now, interventions available to manage ASD-related behaviors rely heavily on the services of professionals who are often difficult to access. What is even more striking is that there are currently no approved medications to treat the core symptoms of ASD. There is an important need for additional strategies to manage severity of ASD and to develop new treatments. Targeting the bacteria living in the intestine, named 'gut microbiota', by using probiotics is an avenue that has been proposed by other groups to improve behaviors associated with ASD and gastrointestinal symptoms. However, these studies have important limitations, pressing the need for robustly designed interventions. Previously, the PROBI-O-TISM pilot study was conducted at CHU Sainte-Justine. The investigators confirmed that the Bio-K+ probiotic beverage is acceptable and safe for autistic children and that the proposed study protocol is feasible. The study also led to promising preliminary results suggesting a beneficial effect of the probiotics on behaviors, gastrointestinal symptoms and sleep. The proposed study will answer the question: ''Does supplementing with Bio-K+ probiotics reduce the severity of autistic behaviors and comorbidities in children with a diagnosis of ASD? '' The investigators will use a solid study design, a double-blinded randomized controlled-trial with placebo, to test the efficacy of a 14-week treatment with daily Bio-K+ probiotic supplement in children aged 4 to 11 years old. The investigators will also study the impact of the supplementation on other parameters such as quality of life, gut microbiota and brain signaling. This is a unique opportunity to test a simple approach to improve behaviors and comorbidities in autistic children.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Prebiotics clinical trials pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Prebiotics clinical trials work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Prebiotics trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Prebiotics is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Prebiotics medical study?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Prebiotics clinical trials?

Most recently, we added Probiotics for Gestational Diabetes, Vaginal Probiotics for Premature Rupture of Membranes and Probiotics for Autism to the Power online platform.
