Sucrase-isomaltase genes and meal study for IBS
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at how people with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) handle meals based on their genes for an enzyme that breaks down sugar and starch. It may help explain why some people benefit from a starch- and sugar-reduced diet.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
- You have had genetic testing for sucrase-isomaltase genes in a past study about a starch- and sugar-reduced diet.
- You do not have inflammatory bowel disease, celiac disease, or other gut disorders.
- You have no severe food allergies.
- You are not pregnant and have not had recent major gut surgery.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how the body digests sugar, specifically sucrose, in people with a genetic condition called CSID (sucrase-isomaltase deficiency) and in healthy volunteers. By comparing the two groups, researchers hope to learn more about food sensitivities and digestive symptoms.
This study tests a new breath test to see if a digestive enzyme problem (sucrase-isomaltase deficiency) causes IBS symptoms. If you have IBS, this could help find a specific cause and lead to better treatment.
This study looks at how lactose intolerance is linked to gut health. It is for adults with ongoing digestive issues like bloating, pain, or diarrhea, to see if their gut lining may be more sensitive.
This study uses a tiny capsule to collect samples from your small intestine to learn about gut bacteria in people with IBS or other functional gut disorders. It could help researchers understand what causes digestive symptoms.
This study looks at how gut bacteria interact with fructose (a sugar in fruits and some vegetables) to cause belly pain in people with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). If you have IBS and fructose intolerance, this research might help find new ways to treat your symptoms.
This study looks at whether the artificial sweetener sucralose (found in many diet products) affects people with Crohn's disease who are feeling well. You will consume sucralose or a placebo and track your symptoms and diet for a short period.
