Mood-01 Trial Summary

This trial will study the effect of a new drug on Irritable Bowel Syndrome. It is placebo controlled, meaning some patients will receive the drug and some will receive a fake drug, and double blind, meaning neither the patients nor the doctors will know who is receiving which.

Who is the study for?
Adults aged 18-70 with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) and mild psychological symptoms, but no psychiatric diagnosis. Participants must not have taken certain probiotics recently, be free from serious systemic diseases or gastrointestinal pathologies other than IBS, and not have had major abdominal surgery or used antibiotics in the last month.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing Bifidobacterium longum NCC3001's effects on intestinal and psychological symptoms in IBS patients. It's a controlled study where participants are randomly assigned to receive either the test probiotic or a placebo without knowing which one they're getting.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects aren't listed for this probiotic, common ones may include digestive discomfort such as gas or bloating. Allergic reactions could occur but are generally rare.

Mechanism Of Action
Side Effect Profile
Prior Approvals
Other Research
Common treatments for Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) include dietary modifications, probiotics, and medications. Dietary changes, such as a low FODMAP diet, reduce the intake of fermentable carbohydrates that can cause bloating and discomfort. Probiotics, like Bifidobacterium longum NCC3001, aim to restore a healthy balance of gut microbiota, which can alleviate symptoms like abdominal pain and bloating by reducing inflammation and improving gut barrier function. Medications may target specific symptoms, such as antispasmodics for pain or laxatives for constipation. Understanding these mechanisms is crucial for IBS patients as it helps tailor treatments to their specific symptoms and underlying causes, potentially improving their quality of life.
