Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine whether Propionyl-L-carnitine administration may ameliorate the illness in patients affected by mild to moderate ulcerative colitis already in treatment with one of the standard treatments (corticosteroids excluded).
This Phase I study will be a closely monitored trial of a small number of subjects to establish, preliminarily, the tolerability and safety of two ALTH12 enema formulations: ALTH12-1:4 and ALTH12-2:4. The study will be conducted in two parts. The first part will be the assessment of the safety and tolerability of a single dose of ALTH12-1:4 or the comparator, mesalamine (4.0g 5-ASA) followed by an assessment of repeated administrations of study drug (ALTH12-1:4 or comparator) for 6 weeks. The second part will be the same assessment for ALTH12-2:4. Three subjects will be enrolled in each cohort: 2 to receive ALTH12 enema therapy and 1 subject to receive comparator enema therapy. A total of up to 9 patients will be enrolled in this study, allowing for up to 3 replacement or additional patients.
The participation in this clinical study will last approximately 21 weeks with a 1 week screening period and a 12 weeks treatment duration. If the study doctor finds, that the patients disease has significantly improved he/she will enter a treatment free follow-up period of 8 weeks. In total the study consists of 5 to 6 clinical visits (V1 - V6) and 1 telephone follow-up call.
The researchers will investigate gut microbiome in Korean patients with ulcerative colitis and normal control subjects using metagenomic analysis to elucidate the significant difference between two groups This study will help to understand the association between gut microbiome and inflammatory bowel disease.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether low dose Asacol® (27 mg/kg - 71 mg/kg) and high dose Asacol® (53 mg/kg - 118 mg/kg) are safe and effective when dosed as 400 mg delayed-release tablets given twice daily for 26 weeks to children and adolescents for the maintenance of remission of ulcerative colitis.
This will be a prospective, multi-center, randomized, single blind study to collect and evaluate post-market clinical data on the SprayShield Adhesion Barrier System as an adjuvant to good surgical technique for the reduction of postoperative adhesion formation following major open abdominal surgery.
This study will be performed to compare the efficacy and safety of the classical "Step-Up" approach for treatment of moderate-to-severe active ulcerative colitis using oral prednisolone + oral 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) or oral prednisolone + oral azathioprine (AZA) with a more intensive and early "Top-Hold" approach with intravenous infliximab (5 mg/kg) administered at Weeks 0, 2, and 6 and 8 weeks thereafter.
The purpose of this study is to provide data correlating levels of microparticles that circulate in the blood and disease activity in children with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The hypothesis is that circulating microparticles will be higher in children with active IBD, show inflammatory activity, and will be low in patients in remission as well as in healthy controls.
The primary purpose of this study is to pilot test an instrument that the investigators will develop to assess decision influences on inflammatory bowel disease patients' medication adherence decision-making. This pilot study will use an exploratory, descriptive cross-sectional survey approach to pilot test the instrument and answer the research questions. The main hypothesis is that patients at risk for intentionally modifying their prescribed medication regimen will differ on influences on decision-making, health status, and utilization of the IBD clinic services compared to those who are intentionally adherent and who continue adherence over time.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the Chinese prescription on Ulcerative Colitis.
