Pilot Study to Assess Tolerability and Feasibility of Oral Sulfate Solution (SUPREP) in Hospitalized Patients

Not Applicable
Conditions
Polyethelene Glycol
Inpatient Colonoscopy
Oral Sulfate Solution
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT04504292
Lead Sponsor
University of Virginia
Brief Summary

This study will test the efficacy, tolerability, and feasibility of an oral sulfate solution (SUPREP) for inpatient colonoscopy preparation, compared to the standard of care (GoLytely). The hypothesis is that SUPREP will be well tolerated and non-inferior to standard polyethylene glycol bowel preparation for colonoscopies in an inpatient setting. To test this, at least 124 subjects who are undergoing an inpatient colonoscopy will be randomized to receive either SUPREP or standard of care. The Boston Bowel Preparation Score will be collected as standard of care for both groups. Safety will be monitored from standard of care blood tests and ECG (when indicated). Subjects will be given a survey to assess how tolerable they found the procedure.

A non-inferiority design will be used to compare SUPREP to the standard of care polyethylene glycol preparation. Data analysis will be performed on Boston Bowel Preparation Score and rate of failure of preparation (measured as number of successful subsequent colonoscopies).

Polyethelene Glycol (GoLytely arm)Golytely Oral ProductPolyethylene Glycol Bowel Prep Kit
Oral sulfate solution (SuPREP arm)SUPREP Bowel Prep KitPer the package insert: The dose for colon cleansing requires administration of two bottles of SUPREP Bowel Prep Kit. Each bottle is administered as 16 oz of diluted SUPREP solution with an additional 1quart of water taken orally. The total volume of liquid required for colon cleansing (using two bottles) is 3 quarts (approximately 2.8 L) taken orally prior to the colonoscopy outlined below under frequency. Two 6 oz bottles of oral solution: Each 6 oz bottle contains: sodium sulfate 17.5 g, potassium sulfate 3.13 g, magnesium sulfate 1.6 g.
