Filter by:Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic inflammatory condition for gastrointestinal tract. There have been numerous studies to reveal dysbiosis of fecal/mucosal microbiome composition in IBD patients but actual trend of dysbiosis is strikingly different among patient's ethnicity. In this background, the investigators have composed a prospective cohort of Korean IBD patients in a large academic referral IBD center. Using an integrated multi-omics bioinformatic analysis, the investigators aim to explore gut microbial signatures along with distinct clinical/genetic features, and their potential interplay in patients with IBD.
In patients with ulcerative or indeterminate colitis who undergo ileal pouch anal anastomosis and diverting loop ileostomy (IPAA) surgery* a short interval to loop ileostomy reversal will result in differences in complications and quality of life compared to a long interval to loop ileostomy reversal.
Fecal Microbiota Transplantation(FMT) - reconstitution of normal flora by a stool transplant from a healthy individual, is increasingly being recognized as a therapeutic modality for diseases that are associated with gut dysbiosis. This is a placebo-controlled, double blinded interventional study evaluating multiple, oral, fecal microbiota transplantation, administered in newly diagnosed pediatric patients with mild-moderate UC. The primary objective is to assess the safety and feasibility of multiple, oral, fecal microbiota transplantation, in newly diagnosed pediatric patients with mild-moderate UC. All processing will occur at the Center for Microbiome Research at Assaf Harofeh Medical Center, under GMP conditions.
Ulcerative colitis is a chronic condition that results in the inflammation of the colon and rectum. Patients suspected to have ulcerative colitis are diagnosed via colonoscopy. Moreover, colonoscopy is considered to be the preferred procedure for assessing the activity and extent of the disease, as well as monitoring treatment response and development of lesions. Therefore, optimal performance and visualization of mucosal lesions via adequate bowel preparation is essential in such patients. In addition, the nature of the disease and the need for multiple colonoscopies throughout a patient's lifetime makes compliance to repeated procedures difficult. It is well known that colonoscopy preparations are generally poorly tolerated, disliked and, consequently serve as an additional burden on patients.Polyethylene glycol (PEG), despite being the golden standard, is not very well tolerated. Inadequate bowel preparations are associated with cancelled procedures, prolonged procedure time, incomplete examination, increased cost and possibly complications, physician frustration and patient anxiety, but most importantly, with missed pathology. A good bowel preparation would need a solution with reasonable volume, acceptable taste, minimal diet restrictions, and easy-to-follow instructions. The strict need for adherence to drinking a relatively large volume of solution preparation may result in poor compliance. Despite the emergence of several types of low volume preparations, the evidence on the use of such solutions remains sparse. This is especially true in terms of patients' tolerability to the solution, and its relation with adequate bowel preparation during colonoscopy. The investigator's aim is to assess how small volume preparations such as sodium picosulfate/magnesium citrate (Citrafleet®) enhance participants tolerability to the solution, compliance, and adequacy of bowel preparations when compared to 2L polyethylene glycol + ascorbic acid (MoviPrep®) in patients with Ulcerative Colitis.
Acute severe ulcerative colitis [ASUC] patients have high risk of no response to medical treatments and might miss the best timing for surgery when waiting for the medical response. Thus, we investigated whether biomarkers which could early predict the surgery risk of patients with ASUC on admission.
This placebo cross-over trial aims to study the effect of the oral intake of an essential amino-acid 5-OH tryptophan, the precursor of serotonin, on the fatigue scores in IBD patients in deep clinical and biological remission.
The PROCTO trial is a double-blind randomized, placebo-controlled, 24-week, comparative, exploratory phase II proof of concept trial. The trial will be conducted with 2 treatment groups as a parallel group comparison and will serve to compare a 7500 TSO regimen vs. placebo for achieving clinically meaningful responses in Ulcerative Colitis.
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) is a chronic inflammatory condition of the gastrointestinal tract that significantly affects quality of life of patients. Several studies have reported that the loss of work productivity is significantly higher than that of the general population due to disease-related symptoms and various factors in patients with inflammatory bowel disease in Western countries, but there is few data in Korea. Therefore, this study is to assess the effect of disease on sick leave, work disability and health related quality of life in Korean patients with inflammatory bowel disease by using validated questionnaires.
Adult individuals with ulcerative colitis in remission are given a single fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) in colonoscopy. A half of the patients will receive autologous FMT as a placebo and a half will receive an FMT from a healthy donor.
This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of UTTR1147A compared with vedolizumab and with placebo in the treatment of participants with moderate to severe UC. This study will consist of two parts, Part A and Part B. Part A will test the induction of clinical remission and Part B will test the durability of clinical remission.
