Filter by:Breastfeeding is beneficial to both mother and baby. However, many breastfeeding women are affected by long-term health conditions and need to take medications. Sometimes, concerns about transfer of drugs to infants via breast milk lead the mothers to either avoid breastfeeding or stop their medication. Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) is a chronic condition that is marked by an abnormal response of the body's immune system, and high levels of certain proteins that cause inflammation (Cytokines like Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha or TNFα). A group of drugs called "biologics" target and stop these proteins from causing inflammation, and have been successfully used to treat this condition. Inflammatory proteins may be present in breast milk of healthy women in variable levels, and may play a role in development of infant's brain and immune system. This study is being conducted to investigate: - Concentration of some of the inflammatory proteins in breast milk of mothers with IBD and healthy controls - Interaction between these proteins and biologics in breast milk of women with IBD - Potential role of these proteins (and their interaction with biologics) on development of infant learning and memory function It has been presumed that concentrations of TNFα and some other cytokines are higher in breast milk of women with IBD, and the biologics can normalize these high levels. Due to precautions for COVID-19, the study now consists of only two mandatory study visits and two optional study visits. The mandatory visits include two home visits in the first 4 months postpartum to complete a participant questionnaire and collect a small sample of breast milk at each visit. The optional study visits consist of two visits at the Hospital for Sick Children for evaluation of learning and memory function of the infant at the ages of 12 and 18 months. Additionally, mothers will be required to complete for their infant subscales of The Ages and Stages Questionnaires®, Third Edition (ASQ®-3) either in person or over the telephone at the ages of 12 months and 18 months.
The objectives of this study are to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of PF-06651600 (200 mg for 8 weeks followed by 50 mg for 4 weeks) dosed once daily and PF-06700841 (60 mg for 12 weeks) dosed once daily during an induction period of 12 weeks, followed by an open label extension period at doses of 50 mg and 30 mg of PF 06651600 and PF 06700841, respectively, for 52 weeks.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of upadacitinib compared to placebo as induction therapy in adults with moderately and severely active Crohn's disease (CD).
The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of upadacitinib compared to placebo as induction therapy in participants with moderately and severely active Crohn's disease (CD).
A multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of maintenance and long-term treatment administration of upadacitinib, an orally administered Janus kinase 1 inhibitor, in adult participants with Crohn's Disease.
IBD adds additional stressors as a chronic disease that has unpredictable and sometimes embarrassing symptoms to the normal challenges that teenagers face. Stress and how stressful events are perceived, may contribute to worsening of disease. Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM), are used often by pediatric IBD patients and maybe beneficial in decreasing stress and improving quality of life. Yoga could be a well suited paring with standard medical therapy to decrease and provide a better sense of control and improve quality of life.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of long-term treatment with ontamalimab in participants with moderate to severe Ulcerative Colitis (UC) or Crohn's disease (CD)
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the combined remission of complex perianal fistulas, defined as the clinical assessment at Week 24 of closure of all treated external openings that were draining at baseline despite gentle finger compression, and absence of collections greater than (>) 2 centimeter (cm) (in at least 2 dimensions) confirmed by blinded central magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) assessment at Week 24.
Vedolizumab has been approved for the treatment of both ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. The aim of this study is to capture the early real life UK experience of vedolizumab including the outcomes of treatment, describing the patient population treated, drug persistence, IBD control PROM, durable remission, tolerance and safety.
This study proposes a randomized prospective study comparing the Kono-S anastomosis to the standard side-to-side anastomosis.This will be a multi-center randomized prospective trial. Patients with Crohn's ileitis or Crohn's ileocolitis requiring resection will be randomized to undergo either the Kono-S anastomosis or the side-to-side functional end anastomosis.
