Filter by:The aim of the study is to do a 7-year follow-up of a consecutive inception cohort of 562 adults and children diagnosed and registered with inflammatory bowel disease in 2003-04 in order to evaluate the consequences of biological therapy in the treatment of IBD. The cohort is established after the implementation of biological agents in the treatment of IBD and the investigators hypothesis is that a) Severe disease course in IBD can be predicted by phenotypic presentation by serological, genetic, clinical and endoscopic characteristics to be used as guidance in the selection of treatment strategy and b) Introduction of biological treatment changes the course of disease in IBD and reduces the need of surgical procedures. Methods: Medical records will be reviewed to register the use of medication, flare ups (medical and surgical) and hospital admissions. Diagnosis, disease localization and behavior will be evaluated. At outpatient visits patients will get a clinical examination, blood and faeces will be collected to biobank and patients will be offered an endoscopical examination. The Montreal classification, The Harvey & Bradshaw's activity index (CD) and the SCAAI score (UC) will be used to describe disease localization, extent, behavior and severity. An electronic database will be established in use of processing data.
Pillcam colon capsule (PCC) endoscopy is a novel strategy tool to inspect colon mucosa. The aim of the present study is to evaluate if PCC endoscopy is able to precisely investigate patients with ulcerative colitis and reach high consistency to conventional colonoscopy.
This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tofacitinib (CP-690,550) in patients with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis who have failed or be intolerant to one of following treatments for ulcerative colitis: oral steroids, azathiopurine/6-mercaptopurine, or anti-TNF-alpha therapy.
This study is an open-label extension (OLE) trial to evaluate the safety and tolerability of etrolizumab in participants with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis (UC) who were enrolled in the Phase II Study ABS4986g (NCT01336465) and meet the eligibility criteria for entry in the OLE study.
This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tofacitinib (CP-690,550) in patients with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis who have failed or be intolerant to one of following treatments for ulcerative colitis: oral steroids, azathiopurine/6-mercaptopurine, or anti-TNF-alpha therapy.
The study proposes to assess whether compared to placebo, CP-690,550 is effective, safe, and tolerable maintenance therapy in subjects with Ulcerative Colitis (UC). The study proposes to assess whether compared to placebo, CP-690,550 maintenance therapy more effectively achieves mucosal healing and improves quality of life in subjects with UC.The study proposes to assess CP-690,550 pharmacokinetic exposure during maintenance therapy in subjects over the age of 18 years with UC.
This is a multicenter, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, pilot study to evaluate safety and preliminary effectiveness of two blinded dose levels of telotristat etiprate (LX1606) in participants with acute, mild to moderate ulcerative colitis on 5-aminosalicylic acid/mesalamine therapy.
The purpose of this research study is to: - 1) Test the safety and tolerability of 2 different oral doses of SRT2104 in subjects with ulcerative colitis - 2) Determine the amount of SRT2104 measured from a single blood sample in addition to colon and/or rectal tissue samples (biopsies) - 3) Determine whether SRT2104 has any anti-inflammatory effect on the colon and/or rectum when taken orally for 8 weeks - 4) Determine whether SRT2104 causes any detectable changes to specific biomarkers. A biomarker is a biological marker (or substance such as a protein) that is used as an indicator of changes in a biological state that corresponds to the risk or progression of a disease.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacodynamics, safety, and pharmacokinetics of HGS1025 in patients with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis.
The purpose of this study is to understand the immune response activated in the human gastrointestinal tract by Trichuris Suis Ova (TSO) in patients with ulcerative colitis.
