Filter by:Two thirds of patients with Crohn's disease require intestinal surgery at some time in their life. Intestinal strictures, that is narrowing of the bowel due to inflammation and scarring, are the most common reason for surgery. Despite the high frequency, associated disability, and cost there are no are no treatment strategies that aim to improve the outcome of this disease complication. The STRIDENT (stricture definition and treatment) studies aim to determine biochemical and imaging features associated with the development of strictures and in related STRIDENT studies develop strategies for treatment.
It has been recently reported that EATL type 1, but not refractory coeliac disease, strongly expressed CD30 and might benefit from brentuximab vedotin. Since the safety profile of the combination brentuximab vedotin and CHP is known and since the role of etoposide as part of induction regimen is not demonstrated, the investigator will assess the efficacy and toxicity of the combination brentuximab vedotin and CHP followed by HDT/ASCT, as frontline treatment of EATL.
Mesalazine, steroid, immunosuppressants and biologic agents are main medical treatments in treating inflammatory bowel diseases. Yet some patients develop severe side effects or initial invalid to conventional therapies. Some studies have already showed that tarcolimus and methotrexate are both effective in inducing and maintaining disease remission. Here we conduct a retrospective study to compare the efficancy of tarcolimus and methotrexate in treating refractory inflammatory bowel diseases as rescue therapy.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the testicular safety of filgotinib in adult males with moderately to severely active inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Results of this study may be pooled with the results of a separate study being conducted in participants with rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, or non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (Protocol GLPG0634-CL-227; NCT03926195) with the same objective. The total planned number of participants in both studies combined will be up to approximately 250 participants.
The primary aim of the project is to investigate whether a behavioural training programme improves troublesome bowel symptoms, that people with inflammatory bowel disease continue to have, despite their disease being controlled by medication. The other aim is to determine if there are factors which influence how well the training programme works. People attending an Inflammatory Bowel Disease clinic in a tertiary hospital, with bothersome bowel symptoms despite disease control, will be asked to join the study. This involves 2 to 6 sessions with a pelvic floor trained physiotherapist over a period of 6 months with further follow up at 12 months..

The aim of the AMBER trial is to determine the effectiveness and cost effectiveness of abdominal massage as part of the adjunct to bowel care in people with Multiple Sclerosis who have problems with their bowel i.e. faecal incontinence and/or constipation.
This prospective, non-interventional research registry is designed to study the comparative effectiveness and comparative safety of approved treatments for IBD in a cohort of patients cared for by gastroenterologists across North America. Secondary objectives include analyzing the epidemiology and natural history of the disease, its comorbidities, and current treatment practices.
The main objective is to assess the effect of an 8-week daily supplementation with IbSium® (probiotic yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae CNCM I-3856) on the improvement gastro-intestinal disorders associated to the type C IBS (constipation predominant).
The investigators wish to characterize alterations in the architecture and function of immune cells in patients with a primary immunodeficiency that also develop inflammatory bowel disease. In addition, The investigators' goal is to characterize the microbiome of these patients, in order to determine whether specific microbial alterations are related to inflammation.
