Filter by:This retrospective multi-centric Belgian prospective trial will involve 10 patients initiating or under maintenance subcutaneous golimumab therapy for moderate-to-severe colitis at the University Hospitals Leuven (Leuven, Belgium) or AZ Groeninge (Kortrijk, Belgium) Patients will (have) receive(d) standard induction therapy with golimumab 200mg at week 0, and golimumab 100mg at week 2. Maintenance therapy will (have) start(ed) at week 6, with 50 or 100mg of golimumab every 4 weeks, depending on body weight (50mg every 4 weeks for patients with a body weight of less than 80kg, and 100mg for the others) Patients will come to the hospital for clinical evaluation, blood sampling and golimumab administration following daily clinical practice. The patients will be requested to perform several dry blood spot analyses at home.
The main objectives of this study are to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of daily doses of PTG-100 in subjects with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis (UC).
A Phase 2a, Randomised, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate the Safety/Tolerability and Efficacy of TOP1288 200 mg Rectal Solution Once Daily for 4 Weeks in Symptomatic Ulcerative Colitis Patients with Moderate to Severe Disease Activity
The main objective of this project is to demonstrate the feasability of an endomicroscopic biomarker of efficacy of vedolizumab and adalimumab, in Ulcerative colitis (UC) by coupling vedolizumab to a fluorescent component, FITC (Fluorescein isothiocyanate) , and adalimumab to rhodamine. This project should allow the development of a biomarker of therapeutic efficacy for vedolizumab and adalimumab that can be used in a single time-frame in vivo in humans, while respecting manufacturing standards and Good manufacturing procedures.
This study monitors the efficacy and safety of Golimumab in maintaining deep remission and quality of life in Ulcerative Colitis patients in deep prolonged remission with Infliximab. Patients will be followed up for one year and they will be assessed with biochemical tests (C-Reactive Protein , Full Blood Count , Faecal Calprotectin),endoscopic evaluation (MAYO Score) and finally histologically.
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a relapsing chronic intestinal inflammation with no existing cure, that affects over 300 per 100.000 Canadians, the highest prevalence in the world. The standard drug therapies are expensive and potentially toxic, and mostly directed against the chronic inflammatory process. UC is the result of a dysbiosis between disease-inducing and protective intestinal bacteria in a genetically susceptible host. Non-digestible dietary carbohydrates (NDC) stimulate the growth of protective endogenous intestinal bacteria which ferment them into short-chain fatty acids (SCFA), some of the latter with natural anti-inflammatory properties, and are called prebiotics. The investigator was the first to report that oral intake of NDC, the dietary β-fructans inulin plus fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS), reduced colitis in a genetically-induced rat colitis model. Both inulin and FOS reduced colitis, each NDC modifying specific luminal microbiota. A small trial with the same mixture of NDC in patients with active UC relapsing on oral 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) showed a dose-dependent clinical response, confirming the translational potential of this NDC mixture. The investigators propose a randomized placebo-controlled trial to assess if inulin plus FOS can also prevent such relapses in UC patients with inactive disease on stable maintenance drugs. Primary hypothesis is that inulin plus FOS is effective adjunct therapy to standard drugs for maintaining clinical remission. The second hypothesis is that the colonic microflora and its metabolic function, altered by inulin plus FOS, or not, mediate protection or relapse in UC. The longitudinal design of this maintenance prevention study and by serially collecting colon biopsies, stool, serum and urine within the same patient before a relapse (inflammation) occurs, would enable to identify unique changes in the intestinal microbiota, their metabolic functions and also assess effects on host-immune response that are associated with remission or before a relapse occurs during treatment with beta-fructans, or not.
The primary purpose of this study is to determine if single and multiple doses of BMS-986184 are safe and well tolerated in healthy male and female subjects. The primary purpose of the proof of mechanism study is to determine safety and efficacy in patients with ulcerative colitis.
Vedolizumab (VDZ) is a humanized immunoglobulin G1 monoclonal antibody acting against α4β7 integrin which modulates lymphocyte trafficking in the gut. Results from the adult GEMINI-1 and GEMINI-2 trials demonstrated clinical efficacy in induction and maintenance of remission in both ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), respectively. Recent real life cohorts in adults support the effectiveness of VDZ in inducing and maintaining remission, both in CD and UC. In pediatrics, there are very limited data on the use of VDZ besides two retrospective case series. Data on immunogenicity and therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of VDZ is conflicting in adults and practically non-existent in children. The investigators aim to prospectively explore the real life short and longer term outcomes of VDZ in pediatric IBD (including growth) and to develop a prediction model for treatment success based on VDZ trough levels and other clinical and laboratory variables.
Molecular imaging with infliximab antibody with FITC has the potential to predict therapeutic responses to infliximab antibody and can be used for personalized medicine in ulcerative colitis.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Phosphatidylcholine (LT-02) add on treatment is effective and safe for the induction of remission in ulcerative colitis patients refractory to standard treatment with mesalamine
