Although positive psychology (PP) interventions, which focus on the cultivation of positive psychological well-being, have been linked to improved health outcomes across diverse medical populations, they have not yet been investigated in IBS. To address this gap, we developed WISH (Well-Being in IBS: Strengths and Happiness), a novel, 9-week, phone-delivered PP-based BGBT for individuals with IBS.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Objective<\/jats:title>\n This randomized controlled trial (RCT) aims to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, preliminary effects, and candidate gut-brain mechanisms of a 9-week phone-delivered PP intervention for IBS compared with a time- and attention-matched educational control.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods<\/jats:title>\n The WISH 2.0 trial is a parallel-group, 9-week pilot RCT that aims to enroll 50 adults meeting Rome IV criteria for IBS. Participants are randomized (1:1), stratified by IBS subtype and gender, to either the WISH 2.0 intervention or an educational control condition. Both conditions consist of 9 weekly 30-minute phone sessions accompanied by weekly manualized exercises. Primary outcomes are feasibility (proportion completing \u22656 of 9 sessions) and acceptability (weekly ease and utility ratings). Secondary outcomes include WISH 2.0\u2019s preliminary effects on health-related, health behavior, and psychological outcomes, assessed at 4 time points: baseline, intervention midpoint, the postintervention assessment, and the 3-month postintervention assessment. Candidate gut-brain mechanisms that might underlie WISH 2.0\u2019s effects, including changes in autonomic function (heart rate variability), interoception (self-report measure), gene expression (whole transcriptome RNA sequencing), and immune system activity (serum inflammatory biomarkers), will be explored before and after the intervention.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n The trial was approved by the Mass General Brigham Institutional Review Board and prospectively registered at ClinicalTrials.gov in March 2025. Funding was awarded in June 2025. Following a study start-up period, recruitment commenced in October 2025 and is ongoing. As of July 2026, 20 participants have been enrolled. Study completion is anticipated in August 2028.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n This trial will determine the feasibility and acceptability of WISH 2.0, a novel PP intervention for IBS. Comparative results between WISH 2.0 and an educational control, including the possibility of equivalent outcomes, will provide important mechanistic insights and facilitate further optimization of BGBTs for IBS, informing a future fully powered efficacy trial.<\/jats:p>\n
