Filter by:The LumenEye scope and CHiP platform will be piloted in a number of clinical settings including remote colorectal clinics. The rationale is to perform an initial pilot study to determine the clinical utility of the LumenEye device for use in primary and secondary care settings. The main hypothesis is that digital rectoscopy is safe and acceptable to clinicians including general practitioners and can significantly reduce the burden of endoscopy referral to and within secondary care centres.
This is a Phase 1, 2-part, open-label study. Part A will be a formulation bridging and food effect study in healthy adult subjects. Part B will be an assessment of pharmacokinetics (PK) in healthy adult Chinese subjects.
This registry on Tofacitinib and biologics (anti-integrin/anti-TNF) in the treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC) patients in Germany will extend the prospective documentation of safety issues and efficacy in induction and maintenance therapy of Tofacitinib (Xeljanz®) in addition to other biologics used in Germany with a particular interest in predictors of long-term responses and favorable disease outcome or to predict severe side effects caused by therapy with Januskinase(JAK)- inhibitors/biologics.
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a term that defines a chronic disease characterized by inflammation of the intestine. It includes ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD). The objective of the study was to administer a treatment based on a group adaptation of the BMGIM in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and assess its impact on state of mind, quality of life, anxiety, depression, immunocompetence as a marker of well-being, and levels of acute and chronic stress. To achieve the objectives a quasi-experimental, quantitative, qualitative, analytical, and prospective study was performed. 41 patients with IBD divided into a test group (24 patients), who received 8 sessions over 8 weeks, and a control group (17 patients). A saliva sample was taken from each patient before and after each session to determine cortisol levels (acute stress) and IgA (immunocompetence) using ELISA. A series of questionnaires were completed as follows: HADS (perceived anxiety), MOOD (state of mind), and CCVEII (quality of life). Similarly, a hair sample was taken before the first and after the last session to determine the cumulative cortisol level (chronic stress) using ELISA.
This is an open-label, 2-cohort study to evaluate the absolute bioavailability, absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion of TD-1473 in healthy male subjects. Subjects in cohort 1 will receive a single oral dose of TD-1473 and a single intravenous bolus dose of [14C]-TD-1473. Subjects in cohort 2 will receive a single oral dose of [14C]-TD-1473 only.
This multicenter study is being conducted to determine whether infliximab exposure after an initial infusion is predictive of early clinical response in hospitalized pediatric patients with severe steroid-refractory UC or IBD-U. This pilot and feasibility study will establish the infrastructure, demonstrate feasibility, and collect preliminary data to support the full study.
Anemia is a clinical manifestation, which is commonly observed in patients with inflammatory bowel disease, and it accounts for significant loss in the quality of life of these patients. The aim of the current study is to assess the effect of orally administered iron treatment, as well as its response predictors in patients with inflammatory bowel disease who are in remission and present anemia. The study will recruit 100 patients with Crohn's disease (CD) and 100 patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) diagnosed and regularly monitored in the Inflammatory Bowel Disease Center at the University Hospital of the Federal University of Juiz de Fora, for clinical, hematological, biochemical and immunological assessment. Blood samples will be collected (10 ml) and the following tests will be performed in all the anemia patients (in remission) at the beginning of the treatment and 8 weeks later: complete blood count, mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) , transferrin saturation index, ferritin, serum iron, hepcidin, quantitative C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6)) and fecal calprotectin. In addition, quality of life, anxiety and depression and fatigue questionnaires will be applied to the patients (IBDQ, HAD and Chalder). The World Health Organization (WHO) criteria will be used to diagnose anemia, therefore, hemoglobin lower than 12 g/dl for women and 13g/dl for men will be considered anemia; hemoglobin lower than 10 g/dl will be considered severe anemia. Patients with mild and moderate anemia in remission will be initially treated with oral iron (oral liposomal iron) and the occurrence of possible symptoms related to oral iron intolerance will be assessed, as well as the patients' disease activity level and quality of life. The patients in follow-up will be subjected to new laboratory tests after the eighth oral iron treatment week. The results of the current study are expected to help assessing the oral iron efficacy and response predictors, as well as the side effects of the treatment and its impact on the quality of life of patients.
This is a multicenter, prospective, randomized, open study comparing two anti-pneumococcal vaccination strategies in patients with Chronic Inflammatory Bowel Disease (CIBD) treated by immunosuppressants and/or biotherapies. At present such patients are poorly protected by anti-pneumococcal vaccination. In addition, vaccination efficacy in this type of patient is much weaker than in the general population. There are two types of anti-pneumococcal vaccines: firstly a polysaccharide, Pneumo23® (PSV-23®) vaccine and secondly a conjugate, Prevenar13® vaccine. New recommendations have just been issued by the HSCP advising immunocompromised patients to follow a vaccination plan combining one dose of Prevenar13® followed by one dose of PSV-23® after an interval of two months. In the case of young children infected with HIV, the recommendation is to multiply doses of Prevenar13® before the PSV-23® injection to improve vaccine efficacy in these immunocompromised patients. Our study aims to identify an optimal vaccination strategy for immunocompromised CIBD patients by combining use of a conjugate vaccine, Prevenar13® and a polysaccharide vaccine, PSV-23®. We will compare the use of one or two doses (M0 +/- M2) of Prevenar13® combined with a later PSV-23® injection (M4) on vaccination immunogenicity measured by antibody titer against at least nine of the thirteen pneumococcal serotypes contained in Prevenar13®. We also want to evaluate the immunological impact of these different strategies in their capacity to stimulate a memory B anti-pneumococcal response more effectively. With this aim, we are studying all immunological functional aspects of the antibodies and B lymphocytes induced by the two vaccine strategies.
