Constipation Predominant Irritable Bowel Syndrome

Brief summary

This is a multi-center, Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled study of RDX5791 in subjects with IBS-C. Patients who are 18 to 75 years old, meeting the definition of IBS-C as defined by the Rome III Criteria for the Diagnosis of IBS will undergo a battery of screening procedures to determine eligibility for the trial. The study will consist of a 2-week treatment-free screening period, a 4-week blinded treatment period, and a 2-week treatment-free follow-up period.

Inclusion criteria

* Subject meets Rome III criteria for IBS-C * If \> 50 years old, colonoscopy evaluation within 10 years * All ages, negative colonoscopy if any warning symptoms * Active disease during 2-week screening period * Compliant with IVRS

Exclusion criteria

* Subjects has IBS-D, IBS-M or un-subtyped IBS according to Rome III criteria * Diagnosis or treatment of any clinically symptomatic biochemical or structural abnormality of the GI tract * Use of medications that are known to affect stool consistency * Subject has any protocol-excluded or clinically significant medical or surgical history that could confound the study assessments or prevent completion of study

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Complete Spontaneous Bowel Movement (CSBM) Frequency Change From BaselineBaseline and Week 4Patients complete a phone diary daily. They are asked how many bowel movements have you had today? they are then asked for each spontaneous bowel movement (unaided with laxative use) wether there was its was a complete evacuation. if it was then it is a complete spontaneous bowel movement. All CSBMs are added and adjusted for a mean compete sponteneous bowel movement.
