After the screening phase, eligible patients will be randomly assigned to either co-micronised form palmithoylethanolamide/polydatin 200 mg/20 mg, or the equivalent placebo (without the active treatment, replaced by equal amount of microcrystalline cellulose), three times a day, in a 1:1 ratio, for 12 weeks. Study visits were conducted every 4 weeks during the treatment period. All the subjects will be blindly allocated by means of scratch cards to one of the two treatment groups according to a computer-generated randomisation list provided by our statistician. A validated program will be used by an independent statistician to generate a randomisation list with blocks, block size = 4, pre-allocated to centres. Patients and study investigators will be blinded to the randomisation codes. The codes will be kept confidential until the end of the study when the randomisation code will be broken after the database lock.\n\nAfter the screening visit and at the end of treatment all subjects will undergo intestinal permeability test and fecal calprotectin assay. Calprotectin assay will be performed using a commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay test (Calprest Eurospital, Trieste, Italy). According to the manufacturer, calprotectin levels exceeding 100 mg/kg were considered positive. Intestinal permeability will be evaluated using a liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry method previously published .\n\nAll subjects will undergo a formal clinical assessment and will be further phenotyped using validated questionnaires. Number of bowel movements per day and/or week and bowel habit characteristics, will be assessed by the Bristol stool scale.\n\nThe protocol will be approved by an independent ethics committee and conducted according to the Declaration of Helsinki and the principles of good clinical practice. The trial will be registered in a public registry.\n\nThe primary outcome will be the change in the abdominal pain symptoms (frequency and severity) according to validated score from baseline to the end of the treatment period. Secondary outcome will be modifications of intestinal permeability and fecal caprotectine.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD', 'ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '18 Years', 'minimumAge': '10 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* positive diagnosis of all IBS subtypes,\n* negative fecal calprotectine\n* nagative anti-transglutaminasi antibodies\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Current use of nonsteroidal anti-infl ammatory drugs, corticosteroids and mast cell stabilisers\n* Use of topical or systemic antibiotics in the last month,\n* Continuous use of stimulant laxatives,\n* Major abdominal surgery, inflammatory bowel disease, infectious diarrhoea, allergic diseases and other organic or psychiatric disorders.'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT05867693', 'briefTitle': 'Palmitoylethanolamide and Polydatin in Pediatric Irritable Bowel Syndrome', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'University of Roma La Sapienza'}, 'officialTitle': 'Palmitoylethanolamide and Polydatin in Pediatric Irritable Bowel Syndrome: a Randomized Controlled Trial', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '2022/ST/235'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'IBS patients assigned to palmithoylethanolamide/polydatin treatment', 'description': 'Eligible patients (patients with symptoms meeting Rome IV criteria for diagnosis of IBS) will be randomly assigned to either co-micronised form palmithoylethanolamide/polydatin 200 mg/20 mg', 'interventionNames': ['Dietary Supplement: palmithoylethanolamide/polydatin']}, {'type': 'PLACEBO_COMPARATOR', 'label': 'IBS patients assigned to placebo treatment', 'description': 'Eligible patients (patients with symptoms meeting Rome IV criteria for diagnosis of IBS) will be randomly assigned to Placebo', 'interventionNames': ['Dietary Supplement: placebo']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'palmithoylethanolamide/polydatin', 'type': 'DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT', 'description': "Palmitoyl-ethanolamide, a saturated fatty acid amide of palmitic acid commonly found in egg yolk and peanuts, is chemically related to anandamide but exhibit low affinity for cannabinoid receptors, and participate in the control of inflammation and nociception mainly via down-regulation of mast cell activity. In addition, palmitoylethanolamide is able to reduce human colonic permeability both in vitro and in vivo. Interestingly, palmithoylethanolamide may act as mast cell modulator as a possible agonist for cannabinoid 2-like receptors; and as agonist for PPAR-α, transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 (TRPV1), and 'orphan' G protein-coupled receptor 55.\n\nFor these reasons, palmithoylethanolamide has emerged as potential regulators of nociception.
