Comparison of Gastrointestinal Motility in Healthy Children and Children With Constipation

Study Description
Brief Summary:
To gain a better understanding of the underlying dysmotility in constipation in children, we will use a novel minimal invasive method called 3D Transit. We will examine four groups of children aged 7 to 17 years: healthy children, chronically constipated children (ROM IV criteria), children with neurofibromatosis type 1 and finally children receiving chemotherapy (vincristin) for acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Study Design

Study Type : Interventional  (Clinical Trial)
Estimated Enrollment : 80 participants
Allocation: N/A
Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment
Masking: None (Open Label)
Primary Purpose: Diagnostic
Official Title: Comparison of Gastrointestinal Motility in Healthy Children and Children With Constipation
Actual Study Start Date : June 13, 2019
Estimated Primary Completion Date : December 2023
Estimated Study Completion Date : December 2023
Arms and Interventions
Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Children being investigated with 3D-transit

4 groups of each 20 children will be investigated with respectively one or two capsules:

  • Healthy children (1)
  • Children with chronic constipation (2)
  • Children with neurofibromatosis type 1 (2)
  • Children with cancer receiving treatment with Vincristine (1)
Diagnostic Test: 3D-Transit
3D transit investigation consists of a small electromagnetic pill and a detector located in a belt around the waist. The pill is swallowed by the participant and the belt is worn until the pill has left the gastrointestinal tract. The method is without any pain and discomfort for the child. The child will visit the hospital the first time to ingest the capsule alongside a standardized meal, and is then free to go home and proceed with daily activities (beside hard exersize) while wearing the belt with the detector. The next day, the child will again visit the hospital to check whether or not the capsule has left the tract - this is done with a computer and software. The children ingesting two capsules will do this with a certain delay.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. The investigation is without discomfort and adverse events. [ Time Frame: 3 days ]
  2. Children with chronic constipation has a longer transit time through the colon and fewer fast bowel movements than healthy children. [ Time Frame: 3 days ]
  3. Children in Vincristine treatment has a longer transit time through the colon and fewer fast bowel movements than healthy children. [ Time Frame: 3 days ]
  4. Children with NF1 and gastrointestinal symptoms has a longer transit time through the colon and fewer fast bowel movements than healthy children. [ Time Frame: 3 days ]
