Secondary endpoints focus on the mechanisms associated with these changes.\n\nThese mechanisms relate to dietary adaptations, changes in anxiety, depressive comorbidity, somatisation, alterations in the gut microbiome or metabolome, body composition and measures of cardiovascular fitness. Virtually all IBS guidelines mention lifestyle modifications as a management option.\n\nResearch on the role of physical activity remains underassessed as compared to the other interventions. Therefore, an exploratory proof-of-concept study will investigate the influence of regular physical exercise on symptoms in a small group of IBS patients. This study will gather data on putative underlying mechanisms related to dietary factors, faecal microbiome and metabolome, mental well-being, body composition and cardiovascular fitness."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '60 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patients aged 18 - 60 years;\n* Fulfilling the ROME IV criteria for Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS);\n* Moderate symptom severity as defined by a IBS-Symptom Severity Scale \\> 175;\n* Sedentary lifestyle defined as SIT-Q-7D \\> 8h/day;\n* Physically inactive defined as \\< 150min/week on the IPAQ score\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Cardiorespiratory disorder hampering participation in a program of physical exercise as evidenced by the sport + keuringsartsen (SKA) questionnaire.\n* Clinical suspicion of an organic disorder different from IBS (patients can be included when this disorder had been excluded);\n* Known inflammatory bowel disorder;\n* Known intestinal motility disorder;\n* Alcohol (defined as more than 14 U per week) or other substance abuse;\n* Active psychiatric disorder;\n* Known systemic or auto-immune disorder with implication for the GI system;\n* Prior abdominal surgery (with the exception of appendectomy or cholecystectomy more than 6 months ago);\n* Any prior diagnosis of cancer other than basocellular carcinoma;\n* Current chemotherapy;\n* History of gastro-enteritis in the past 8 weeks;\n* Change in diet in the past 8 weeks;\n* Dietary supplements unless taken at a stable dose for more than 8 weeks;\n* Antibiotics, pre-, pro-, post-biotics or any combination during the past 8 weeks;\n* Treatment with neuromodulators (one neuromodulator taken at a stable dose for more than 12 weeks is allowed);\n* Treatment with spasmolytic agents, opioids, loperamide, gelatine tannate or mucoprotect-ants during the past 8 weeks.'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT05680766', 'briefTitle': 'Feasibility Assessment of Cardiovascular Endurance Training for the Symptomatic Improvement of Irritable Bowel Syndrome Patients With a Sedentary and Non-active Lifestyle.', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Universitair Ziekenhuis Brussel'}, 'officialTitle': 'Feasibility Assessment of Cardiovascular Endurance Training for the Symptomatic Improvement of Irritable Bowel Syndrome Patients With a Sedentary and Non-active Lifestyle.', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'Face-IT'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Intervention arm', 'description': 'IBS subjects fulfilling the eligibility criteria will follow a structured and personalised cardiovascular endurance training (CET).', 'interventionNames': ['Other: Cardiovascular endurance training']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Cardiovascular endurance training', 'type': 'OTHER', 'description': 'Based on the results of a maximal effort test, investigators will provide a personalised training program.
