Filter by:The hypothesis underlying this study is that nasally administered calcitonin will stabilize or improve bone mineral density in young patients with ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease. Patients who participate will receive either calcitonin or placebo and will have their bone mineral density measured at the start, at nine months, and at 18 months of study. Participants will also receive age appropriate doses of vitamin D and calcium supplements. Other serological measures of vitamin D status will be obtained every 3 months during the study.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the Adacolumn Apheresis System to treat the signs and symptoms of ulcerative colitis.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of infliximab (Remicade) in patients with Ulcerative Colitis. Infliximab (Remicade) targets specific proteins in the body's immune system to help control the development of inflammation to help reduce painful disease.
This dose comparison study, taking place at over 200 sites worldwide, will compare the dosing, safety and efficacy of an investigational medicine OPC-6535 to the dosing, safety and efficacy of Asacol ® in the maintenance of remission in subjects with ulcerative colitis.
The purpose of The PROSPECT Study is to evaluate an investigational medication for the treatment of moderate to severe ulcerative colitis. This study is being conducted at up to 38 clinical research centers in the US, Canada, and Belgium, and is open to male and female patients 12 years and older. Participants in the study will have a number of visits to a research center over a five-month period. All study related care and medication is provided to qualified participants at no cost: this includes all visits, examinations, and laboratory work.
This study is a prospective clinical study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of two different doses of Asacol for the treatment of moderately active ulcerative colitis. In addition, a new tablet formulation will be evaluated at one of the two doses.
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluating rosiglitazone: 4 mg tablets or placebo tablets administered orally twice daily for 12 weeks. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of rosiglitazone in the treatment of mild to moderately active ulcerative colitis. Disease activity will be measured using a standard disease activity index. Calculation of the index requires patients to undergo flexible sigmoidoscopy at the start of the study and at week 12.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the drug OPC-6535 compared to a placebo in patients with active Ulcerative Colitis. Depending on their response, participants will be offered the investigational medication for up to one year after the study's completion at select sites.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the drug OPC-6535 compared to a placebo in patients with active Ulcerative Colitis. Depending on their response, participants will be offered the investigational medication for up to one year after the study's completion at select sites.
This is a multi-center trial in the US and Europe to test the safety, efficacy and tolerability of alicaforsen (ISIS 2302), a new type of drug called an antisense drug, in patients with mild to moderate active Ulcerative Colitis (UC). Alicaforsen is designed to reduce the production of a specific protein, called ICAM-1, a substance that plays a significant role in the increase of inflammation and is likely to be involved in inflammatory bowel diseases such as ulcerative colitis. The ISIS 2302-CS27 study will compare four dosing regimens and determine the minimum effective dose of alicaforsen enema in UC patients over six weeks as compared to a placebo enema. (The probability of receiving active formulation is 4:1). The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the percentage reduction in DAI at Week 6.
