Prior to study entry, a screening visit will be required for all potential participants. If a participant meets the inclusion criteria, they will be randomized to either a placebo (0.55 g total fructans/GOS), a moderate oligosaccharide group (3.25 g total fructans/GOS) or a high oligosaccharide group (5.43 g total fructans/GOS) through a computed-generated scheme within each respective center. During the run-in period, enrolled subjects will undergo the following: 1) Laboratory analyses (CBC, routine biochemistry, CRP and fecal calprotectin); 2) Stool collection for fecal calprotectin analysis; 3) tolerability assessment including overall gastrointestinal symptoms and specific symptoms (abdominal bloating, abdominal pain, gut rumbling, flatulence) utilizing a 100mm visual analogue scale (VAS, 0 = no symptoms; 100 = worst symptoms ever experienced); 4) fatigue assessment utilizing a multi-dimensional fatigue impact scale (FIS); 5) health-related quality of life (HRQOL) assessment utilizing the Short Form 36-Item Health Survey (SF-36) and 6) Mood assessment utilizing the Spielberger State-Trait Personality Inventory (STPI). Participants will also meet with a registered dietitian to quantify baseline oligosaccharide consumption by completing a prospective 5-day diet diary alongside a validated food frequency questionnaire (FFQ), the Monash University Comprehensive Nutritional Assessment Questionnaire (CNAQ) that assesses oligosaccharide intake in addition to the usual nutrients \\[49\\]. Once the initial dietary assessment is complete, participants will begin up-titration of their oligosaccharide supplementation in a step-wise fashion until they reach their required daily amounts defined by their treatment group allocation. Once this is achieved, they will enter the 4 weeks of treatment or at time of relapse. Participants will undergo re-assessment during the study period at 2 weeks (Visit #3), and at study completion (Visit #4).\n\nIf a participant undergoes a CD flare during the run-in period, they will be withdrawn from the study. The end point of the study will be at 4 weeks of treatment or at time of relapse."}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '19 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* age \\>/= 19 years\n* diagnosed with CD for \\>/= 6 months, currently in remission based on the Harvey-Bradshaw Index score (\\</= 4 points) and C-reactive protein (\\<5mg/L)\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* unable to provide informed consent;\n* have significant hepatic, renal, endocrine, respiratory, neurological, or cardiovascular disease;\n* confirmed diagnosis of celiac disease, or have suspected celiac disease and are following a gluten-free diet to manage symptoms with an elevated screening anti-tissue transglutaminase antibody test;\n* significant complications of CD which includes a history of extensive colonic resection, including subtotal or total colectomy, history of \\>/= 3 small bowel resections or received a diagnosis of short bowel syndrome, current ileostomy, colostomy or ileal-anal pouch, or a fixed symptomatic intestinal stenosis;\n* antibiotic use in the 4 weeks prior to study start;\n* use of any rectal preparations in the 2 weeks prior to study start;\n* use of any non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in the 2 weeks prior to study start;\n* use of commercial probiotic supplements in the 4 weeks prior to study start\n* change in CD therapy in the 4 weeks prior to study start (excluding steroid taper, however steroid dosing must be stable for 2 weeks prior to study start);\n* recently been adhering to a novel dietary intervention for alternative health issues within the last 4 weeks prior to study start.'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT02193750', 'briefTitle': "Assessing the Tolerability of Oligosaccharide Supplementation in Patients With Crohn's Disease", 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'University of British Columbia'}, 'officialTitle': "Assessing the Tolerability of Oligosaccharide Supplementation in Patients With Crohn's Disease: A Randomized, Controlled Trial", 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'H14-01420'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'PLACEBO_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'Placebo', 'description': '1 placebo muesli bars and 1 serving placebo muesli per day (0.55 g total fructans/GOS)', 'interventionNames': ['Dietary Supplement: Placebo']}, {'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Moderate Oligosaccharide Group', 'description': '1 placebo muesli bar and 1 serving intervention muesli per day (3.25 g total fructans/GOS)', 'interventionNames': ['Dietary Supplement: Moderate Oligosaccharide Group']}, {'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'High Oligosaccharide Group', 'description': '1 intervention muesli bar and 1 serving intervention muesli per day (5.43 total fructans/GOS)', 'interventionNames': ['Dietary Supplement: High Oligosaccharide Group']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Placebo', 'type': 'DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT', 'description': '1 placebo muesli bar and 1 serving placebo muesli per day (0.55 g total fructans/GOS)', 'armGroupLabels': ['Placebo']}, {'name': 'Moderate Oligosaccharide Group', 'type': 'DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT', 'description': '1 placebo muesli bar and 1 serving intervention muesli per day (3.25 g total fructans/GOS)', 'armGroupLabels': ['Moderate Oligosaccharide Group']}, {'name': 'High Oligosaccharide Group', 'type': 'DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT', 'description': '1 placebo muesli bar and 1 serving placebo muesli per day (5.43 g total fructans/GOS)', 'armGroupLabels': ['High Oligosaccharide Group']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'city': 'Melbourne', 'country': 'Australia', 'facility': 'Department of Gastroenterology Alfred Hospital', 'geoPoint': {'lat': -37.814, 'lon': 144.96332}}, {'zip': 'V6Z 1Y6', 'city': 'Vancouver', 'state': 'British Columbia', 'country': 'Canada', 'facility': "GI Clinic, St. Paul's Hospital", 'geoPoint': {'lat': 49.24966, 'lon': -123.11934}}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Brian Bressler, MD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': "Division of Gastroenterology, Department of Medicine St. Paul's Hospital, Vancouver, BC Cananda"}, {'name': 'Peter Gibson, MD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'Department of Gastroenterology Alfred Hospital, Melbourne, Australia'}]}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'University of British Columbia', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'collaborators': [{'name': 'The Alfred', 'class': 'OTHER'}, {'name': 'Melbourne Health', 'class': 'OTHER'}], 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'investigatorTitle': 'Clinical Associate Professor', 'investigatorFullName': 'Brian Bressler', 'investigatorAffiliation': 'University of British Columbia'}}}}
