About this study

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of a probiotic combination (Lactibiane Tolerance) on the severity of symptoms in patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

The secondary purposes are to evaluate the effects of the intervention on:

  • quality of life
  • severity of fatigue, anxiety and depression
  • levels of inflammatory markers in blood and tools

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Treatment and study plan

Lactibiane Tolerance

Dietary Supplement

Probiotics combination 2 gelules per days during 6 weeks

Other names: Probiotic

Placebo

Dietary Supplement

Placebo 2 gelules per days for 6 weeks

Primary outcomes

  1. Severity of bowel symptoms according to the Francis Score

    Time frame: After 6 weeks of complementation

    The severity of bowel symptoms is evaluated with a quality of life questionnaire, the Francis Score before and after 6 weeks of complementation in placebo and verum groups.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Quality of life

    Time frame: after 6 weeks of complementation

    Effect of the intervention on transit and abdominal pain

  2. Severity of Anxiety/Depression

    Time frame: after 6 weeks of complementation

    The level of anxiety/depression will be measured with the HAD scale

  3. Impact of the complementation on fatigue

    Time frame: after 6 weeks of complementation

    The level of fatigue will be measured with the score to the fatigue Impact Scale (FIS)

  4. Impact of the intervention on immunological parameters in stools

    Time frame: after 6 weeks of complementation

    The effects of the intervention on immunological parameters in stools will be evaluated via the levels of beta-defensine 2 and sérine protease activities

  5. Impact of the intervention on immunological parameters in blood

    Time frame: after 6 weeks of complementation

    The impact of the intervention on immunological parameters in blood will be measured with levels of endotoxines, ultrasensitive protein C Reactive and cytokines

  6. Severity of bowel symptoms according to the Francis Score

    Time frame: after 2 weeks of wash-out

    The severity of bowel symptoms is evaluated with the Francis Score before 6 weeks of complementation and after 2 weeks of wash-out in placebo and verum groups

  7. Quality of life

    Time frame: after 2 weeks of wash-out

    Effect of the intervention on transit and abdominal pain

  8. severity of the anxiety/depression

    Time frame: after 2 weeks of wash-out

    The level of anxiety/depression will be measured with the HAD scale

  9. Impact of the complementation on fatigue

    Time frame: After 2 weeks of wash out

    The level of fatigue will be measured with the score to the fatigue Impact Scale (FIS)

  10. Impact of the intervention on immunological parameters in stools

    Time frame: after 2 weeks of wash out

    The effects of the intervention on immunological parameters in stools will be avaluated via the levels of beta-defensine 2 and sérine protease activities

  11. Impact of the intervention on immunological parameters in blood

    Time frame: after 2 weeks of wash-out

    The impact of the intervention on immunological parameters in blood will be measured with levels of endotoxines, ultrasensitive protein C Reactive and cytokines
