Filter by:This pilot, randomized phase I/II trial studies how well inositol works in preventing colorectal cancer in patients with abnormal cells (dysplasia) associated with inflammation of the colon (colitis). Patients with colitis-associated dysplasia may have an increased risk of developing colorectal cancer. Inositol is a vitamin-like substance that may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
Confirmation of safety profile of Pentasa slow release tablets 500 mg in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC).
Open-label, 8 week study, to assess the efficacy and safety of oral Budesonide-MMX 9 mg Extended-release Tablets in patients with mild to moderate, active ulcerative colitis who are not in remission based on the Ulcerative Colitis Disease Activity Index in study CB-01-02/01 (parent study [NCT00679432]).
This clinical trial hypothesize that Gut Microbiota (bacteria, viruses, fungi)play a major role in the occurrence and progression of many chronic gastrointestinal diseases like Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Inflammatory Bowel Diseases and Colo-Rectal Cancer. Hence, aims to study the spectrum of such microbiota in these patients as compared to normal subjects, by utilizing metagenomic techniques rather than cultural methods.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a treatment of a novel leukapheresis column is safe and effective in patients with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis.
The purpose of this study is to study samples of rectal mucosa (the moist lining of the rectum) using a new light scattering technology, called partial wave spectroscopy (PWS) in patients who will undergo a standard of care colonoscopy or a flexible sigmoidoscopy and have a history of ulcerative colitis (UC).
The study aims at showing that the susceptibility in the stress is more raised at the person affected digestive pathologies (SII or IBD) in forgiveness than healthy subjects.
The purpose of this study is to look at the importance of L-Arginine in the digestive tract. L-Arginine is an amino acid and is important in making proteins within the cell. The evaluation of colon tissue, blood, urine, diet, health history, and symptoms will help us learn more about L-Arginine and ulcerative colitis. The investigators believe these studies will provide new insights into the treatment for Inflammatory Bowel Disease (ulcerative colitis) and nutritional needs. The investigators plan to enroll 200 participants in this study over the next two years.
The purpose of this study is to determine if Cimzia (certolizumab pegol) is an effective treatment for patients with Ulcerative colitis.
Fifty patients will get probiotics (109 bacteria [L. acidophilus, B. bifidum, S. thermophilus, L. rhamnosus, L. casei] in 2 capsules) and half will get placebo (2 capsules that look the same like the probiotic capsules and will contain microcrystalline cellulose, artificial brown color, magnesium strearate, and silica dioxide). The patients and the staff will be blinded to the identity of the study medications. Each patient and volunteer will get the study medication for 6 weeks and will be evaluated twice - before enrollment and after 6 weeks of treatment. Routine clinical management will continue - with regular treatment as needed. Each individual will be studied for changes in biochemical inflammatory and immunological markers and changes in flow medicated diameter that will be measured by the brachial artery method (that is evaluating endothelial function). Every patient will be evaluated for his/her ability to produce endothelial progenitor stem cells (EPCs).
