Filter by:The overall objective of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of high dose and low dose Asacol administered as 400 mg delayed-release tablets given every 12 hours for 6 weeks to children and adolescents with mildly-to-moderately active ulcerative colitis.
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and effectiveness of dosing mesalazine 800 mg tablets (Asacol®) at 2.4 g once daily versus divided doses three times daily in the maintenance of remission of ulcerative colitis.
This is a prospective, safety surveillance registry in participants with moderate-to-severe active ulcerative colitis (UC).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the addition of GMA apheresis to steroid conventional treatment for achieving and maintaining remission in Active steroid dependant Ulcerative Colitis patients
This is a randomized , double-blind, placebo-controlled study of approximately 70 patients with ulcerative colitis.
The purpose of this study is to compare Budesonide MMX™ 6 mg and Budesonide MMX™ 9 mg tablets to placebo and to Asacol 6x 400 mg tablets over an 8-week treatment period to determine if Budesonide MMX™ is effective in the treatment of ulcerative colitis.
This will be a multicentre, randomised, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel group comparative study in patients with mild or moderate, active ulcerative colitis. The study will compare budesonide-MMX™ 6 mg and budesonide-MMX™ 9 mg tablets to placebo and to Entocort® 3 x 3 mg capsules, in four parallel groups of patients over an 8 week treatment period. After the screening visit, patients will enter a washout period of 2 days, then they will be randomised to the following four treatment groups: budesonide-MMX™ tablets (6 mg), budesonide-MMX™ tablets (9 mg), Entocort® capsules (3 x 3 mg) and placebo (tablets and capsules), all administered once a day after breakfast. Hence, each patient will receive, in the morning after breakfast, either one budesonide-MMX™ 6 mg or budesonide MMX™ 9 mg tablet and 3 placebo Entocort® matching capsules, or three Entocort® 3 mg capsules and one placebo budesonide-MMX™ matching tablet, or one placebo budesonide-MMX™ matching tablet and three placebo Entocort® matching capsules.
Inflammatory Bowel Disease (Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis) often results in significant life disruption, hospitalization and surgery. While psychosocial factors are not believed to cause IBD, such factors can contribute to the ability of individuals with IBD to cope with the disease, and ineffective coping may lead to the exacerbation of IBD symptoms. The goal of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a social learning and cognitive behavior therapy approach for treating children with IBD. The primary outcomes of interest are IBD symptoms, medical visits, quality of life, and overall disability.
The primary purpose of this prospective, randomized multicenter center study is to evaluate and compare the outcomes of colorectal, coloanal and ileoanal anastomoses reinforced with a bioabsorbable staple line reinforcement material compared with standard non-reinforced colorectal, coloanal and ileoanal techniques with respect to the incidence of postoperative anastomotic leakage, anastomotic stricture and time to ileostomy closure, if applicable.
This is a confirmatory, multicentric, prospective, randomized, controlled, single-blind study in subjects with long standing ulcerative colitis in clinical remission with indication for surveillance colonoscopy. The patients are examined with the PENTAX EC-3870CIFK and EC-3870CILK confocal colonoscopes either by chromoscopy-guided endomicroscopy with targeted biopsies or by standard endoscopy with random and targeted biopsies. The aim is to investigate whether chromoscopy-guided endomicroscopy has a higher sensitivity than standard endoscopy with respect to detection of intraepithelial neoplasia (IN) and to compare the proportion of patients with at least 1 IN detected by chromoscopy-guided endomicroscopy versus standard endoscopy.
