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 primary objective of the study is to compare the efficacy of the probiotic VSL#3 versus placebo, in addition to standard maintenance drugs, in maintaining remission in Crohn's disease (CD). The secondary objectives are: - To determine the time till flare of CD patients on VSL#3 compared to placebo. - To assess whether concurrent therapy with VSL#3 leads to an improvement in the quality of life (QOL). - To assess whether concurrent therapy with VSL#3 reduces the severity of a flare if it occurs.
This study will compare two different dosing methods of azathioprine (IMURAN) in participants with Crohn's disease who are currently taking steroids (e.g. prednisone or budesonide)or who have just started steroids. The study can be up to 54 weeks long. All participants enrolled will receive active drug. Participants will take doses either based upon weight or based on the patient's ability to breakdown the drug (monitored by 6-thioguanine nucleotides (6-TGN) metabolite levels in the blood). All patients enrolled in the study will receive active study drug.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether taking a growth hormone (GH) drug called somatropin causes the intestine of a person with Crohn's Disease (CD) to heal faster when compared to a person with Crohn's Disease that does not receive growth hormone drug.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Inflabloc Cap (Dehydroepiandrosterone [DHEA]) in the treatment of patients with moderately active Crohn's disease.
The goal of this study is to test whether adalimumab can induce clinical remission in subjects with active Crohn's disease who have been initially treated with infliximab and either lost response or discontinued its use as a result of intolerance to the drug.
This study will evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the investigational drug 683699 in treating subjects with moderately to severely active CD (Crohn's Disease).
The purpose of this study is to identify an optimal weight based dose of azathioprine that is safe and effective in the treatment of subjects with active Crohn's disease requiring treatment with corticosteroids, and for maintaining remission in those subjects.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of STA-5326 given once daily or twice daily to Crohn's Disease patients with moderate disease.
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate natalizumab in individuals with moderately to severely active Crohn's Disease.
