Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
To monitor the Whole Gut Transit Time and repeatability of the motility of MD1 capsules in the colon of subjects with known polyps and in healthy subjects. Multi-Center, Open, Home Monitoring, Prospective Study. Up to 100 participants in various phases 2-5 capsules per person, (1 capsule at a time) The primary objective of the study is to monitor the variability of the motility of the MD1 capsules in the Gastrointestinal tract of human subjects with and without polyps in previous Colonoscopy.

- Participants
- description
- All study participants will be examined by the MD1 capsules, 2-5 capsules per person, one capsule at a time. Efforts will be made to maintain balanced numbers between men and women and even distribution of ages
- interventionNames
- Device: MDI
Primary outcomes (1)
- measure
- Measure the variability of the motility (Whole gut transit time from ingestion to excretion {hours}) of the MD1 (Motility dummy 1) capsules in the Gastrointestinal tract of human subjects with and w/out polyps in previous Colonoscopy.
- timeFrame
- 12 months
- description
- All participating subjects will be consented for multiple measurements. In selected subjects the experiment will be repeated with same type MD1 capsule but w/out the drug, to compare the effect of the drug on the motility and the instantaneous speed during contractions. These subjects will be selected according to their results in the first round, ease of adjustment to the monitoring routine, retrieval of the excreted capsules and lack of any side effects or complains. The repeated procedure will be at least 1 week apart and will be approved by the investigator only after positive identification of the excretion of the first capsule. Naturally, there is no need to repeat the colonoscopy procedure The repeated tests will be conducted according to the same protocol. There are no additional safety issues in the re-ingestions tests since the 1st capsule has to be excreted and retrieved few days before the repeated experiment starts
