Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Current primary outcome measure as of 08/04/2022: 1. Occurrence of adverse events: frequency, intensity and relation with the administered treatments measured using case report forms during the study period 2.

Safety assessed using patient’s report at Day 0, Day 2, Day 10, and Day 20 Previous primary outcome measure as of 06/04/2022: 1. Occurrence of adverse events: frequency, intensity and relation with the administered treatments measured using case report forms during the study period 2.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Current secondary outcome measures as of 06/04/2022: 1. Symptomatology of bloating and distention in FGIDs 2. Onset of effectiveness: time to onset of symptoms improvement assessed with visual analogue scale (VAS) before, at 60 and 120 min after the dose of the first 8 days of therapy 3. Symptomatology of bloating and distention in FGIDs, possibly caused by SIBO assessed using a Hydrogen Breath Test at Day 1 (V1) and Day 20 (V4) Previous secondary outcome measures: 1. Symptomatology of bloating and distention in FGIDs assessed using the Likert gastrointestinal symptom score (GIS) scale using a daily journal kept for the entire period of the study treatment and throughout the 10-day follow-up period and by measuring abdominal girth at every visit to the doctor’s office 2. Onset of effectiveness: time to onset of symptoms improvement assessed with visual analogue scale (VAS) before, at 60 and 120 min after the dose of the first 8 days of therapy 3. Symptomatology of bloating and distention in FGIDs assessed using a Hydrogen Breath Test at Day 1 (V1) and Day 20 (V4)
