简要总结
The objectives are to assess the efficacy and safety of Vibrant capsule administered twice a week
详细描述
The study is a prospective, randomized, multicenter, adaptive design, double blinded clinical study, to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Vibrant Capsule vs. placebo in relieving constipation in subjects with Chronic Idiopathic Constipation.
Two arms will be assessed (at a ratio of 1:1 of Vibrant Treatment vs. placebo):
- Vibrant Capsule administered twice a week (Monday and Thursday)
- Placebo Capsule administered twice a week (Monday and Thursday) Subjects will come for 4 visits: Screening (visit 1), baseline (visit 2), after 4 treatment weeks from baseline (visit 3) and after 8 treatment weeks from baseline (Final visit , visit 4). A total of 8 treatment weeks.
During the entire study period subjects will be asked to refrain from taking any medications or supplements to relieve their constipation.
Subjects will be authorized to use rescue medication after 3 consecutive days without a bowel movement

盲法说明
This is a double-blind study. The subjects and the evaluators will be blinded to the treatment allocated to each subject. Each site will assign an unblinded person that will handle all issues related to capsule administration and accountability. The unblinded person will not be involved in any subject's assessments. Rest of the site staff will remain blind throughout the study.

结局指标
主要结局
CSBM 1 Success Rate
时间窗: up to 8 weeks of treatment
CSBM1 Success Rate: defined as the number of Participants with an increase from the run-in period of at least one weekly Complete Spontaneous Bowel Movement (CSBM) during at least 6 of the 8 weeks of treatment. NOTE: A spontaneous bowel movement (SBM) is defined as a bowel movement that occurs at least 48h after laxative/rescue intake and without digital maneuver. A complete spontaneous bowel movement (CSBM) is defined as a spontaneous bowel movement associated with a feeling of complete evacuation by the subject.
CSBM2 Success Rate
时间窗: up to 8 weeks of treatment
CSBM2 Success Rate: defined as the number of Participants with an increase from the run-in period of at least two weekly Complete Spontaneous Bowel Movement (CSBM) during at least 6 of the 8 weeks of treatment. NOTE: A spontaneous bowel movement (SBM) is defined as a bowel movement that occurs at least 48h after laxative/rescue intake and without digital maneuver. A complete spontaneous bowel movement (CSBM) is defined as a spontaneous bowel movement associated with a feeling of complete evacuation by the subject.
