研究概览
简要总结
Single Centre, open label assignment phase II clinical study.
To evaluate the effect of oral 200mg Methylene Blue tablets (administered 8x25mg) prior to endoscopy on double stranded DNA breaks in colonic biopsy samples assessed by histone gamma H2AX analysis, compared to control biopsies.
详细描述
Primary Objective: To evaluate the effect of oral 200 mg Methylene Blue MMX® tablets, (administered as 8 x 25 mg), prior to endoscopy, on double-stranded DNA breaks in colonic biopsy samples assessed by histone γH2AX analysis, compared to control biopsies collected during standard white light colonoscopy without the prior use of Methylene Blue MMX®.
Secondary Objectives : To evaluate the safety and tolerability of oral Methylene Blue MMX® tablets.. To evaluate the staining score for colonoscopy obtained with oral Methylene Blue MMX® tablets . Time to reach the caecum during colonoscopy and withdrawal time from caecum to exit.

研究组 & 干预措施
Group A
Biopsy samples collected during standard white light colonoscopy.
干预措施: standard white light colonoscopy-equivalent to placebo (Procedure)
Group B
Subjects who have had samples collected during a Group A colonoscopy, who require a second colonoscopy within 2 weeks. Prior to this second colonoscopy the subjects take Methylene Blue MMX tablets. Biopsies collected are compared to their previous group A colonoscopy for histone gamma H2AX activity.
干预措施: Methylene Blue MMX tablets (Drug)
