Study summary

Fructosin® is a medical device for use in fructose intolerance. In this uncontrolled posdt market clinical follow up (PMCF) study, the safety and efficacy of oral supplementation of Fructosin® in fructose intolerance will be investigated.

The study participants will be informed about the nature and scope of the study during a preliminary examination (screening) and a declaration of consent will be obtained. In addition, it is determined whether fructose intolerance is present. This is determined by means of the aCPQ test. Subsequently, the patients fill out symptom questionnaires (IBS-SSS, IBS-QoL, 1-week symptom questionnaire).

After the eligibility check, a 14-day phase of monitoring and documentation of symptoms and complaints without taking Fructosin® (observation phase) takes place. At visit 1, the patients receive the Fructosin® capsules, which they take as needed, but no more than 2 x 3 times a day with fruit meals. The intake phase runs over a period of 28 days (4 weeks) during which the study participants observe and evaluate gastrointestinal symptoms with the help of the 1-weekly symptom questionnaire. In addition, the daily fructose consumption (fruit, fruit juices, smoothies) and the amount of Fructosin® capsules taken are documented in a diary.

Study population

Test persons are recruited from the patient pool of the Clinical Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology of the Medical University Clinic Graz. Fructose intolerance has been detected in these patients by means of aCPQ since March 2017. In addition, those affected will be approached through advertising measures and an aCPQ test for fructose intolerance determination will be carried out as part of the study. A detailed medical history will also be taken to check eligibility for participation in the study.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Pregnancy and breastfeeding
  • Congenital (hereditary) fructose intolerance

Groups and cohorts

  • People suffering from fructose intolerance

    Device: Fructosin

Interventions

  • DeviceFructosin

    Fructosin® is a CE marked medical device. The capsules with 30.23 mg xylose isomerase are taken as recommended. This means that, depending on the total intake, 1-2 capsules are to be taken with water 15 minutes before meals containing fructose, a maximum of 3 times a day. Use as needed during the 4-week intake phase.

    Also known as: Fructease

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Safety of FRuctosin

    Adverse events are recorded by the study participants by means of a diary and asked about by the study investigators at the end of the study (final visit). At the final visit, the subjects are asked about any changes in their health status. Any symptoms that occur that go beyond the symptoms of fructose intolerance are documented as adverse events (AE). All distinguishing features between adverse and serious adverse events, defined in accordance with the ICH/GCP guidelines, are queried and documented in the electronic case report form. AE are documented in source documents and include description, time period, treatment, intensity (1 mild, 2 moderate, 3 severe) and outcome (1 recovered, 2 recovered with limitation, 3 not yet recovered, 4 unknown), as well as severity (yes/no) and possible association (0 no association, 1 unlikely, 2 possible, 3 probable, 4 certain). The assessment of the association of AEs with the study medication is made by the investigator.

    Time frame: 28 days

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Sep 21, 2023, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
