NCT ID: NCT04038619 Recruiting - Breast Cancer Clinical Trials

Fecal Microbiota Transplantation in Treating Immune-Checkpoint Inhibitor Induced-Diarrhea or Colitis in Genitourinary Cancer Patients

Start date: February 1, 2021
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

This trial studies how well fecal microbiota transplantation works in treating diarrhea or colitis (inflammation of the intestines) that is caused by certain types of medications (called immune-checkpoint inhibitors) in patients with genitourinary cancer. Fecal microbiota transplantation may effectively reduce the incidence of immune checkpoint inhibitor-induced diarrhea/colitis.

NCT ID: NCT04030676 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Cytomegalovirus Infections

QuantiFERON-CMV Test in a Prediction for Colic Cytomegalovirus Reactivation During Ulcerative Colitis

RECOHFERRON
Start date: July 17, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

CytoMegaloVirus (CMV) infection impairs evolution of Ulcerative Colitis (UC) leading to more severe and resistant to immunosuppressive therapies flare-up. CytoMegaloVirus (CMV) reactivation is assessed by the quantification of the CytoMegaloVirus (CMV) DeoxyriboNucleic Acid (DNA) load by real-time PCR (qPCR) in colonic biopsies; this assay is invasive and costly. The QuantiFERON-CytoMegaloVirus (QF-CMV) assay measures the immune response against CytoMegaloVirus (CMV) in a blood specimen.

NCT ID: NCT04006080 Recruiting - Ulcerative Colitis Clinical Trials

Investigation of the Faecal Loss of Vedolizumab and Its Role in Influencing Serum Drug Levels, Outcomes and Response in Ulcerative Colitis

FAVOUR
Start date: July 1, 2019
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to study the loss of vedolizumab in stool in patients with active ulcerative colitis (UC). Patients with moderate-to-severe UC who are commencing induction therapy with vedolizumab will be enrolled into a prospective study and stool will be collected for faecal vedolizumab measurement at days 1, 4 and 7; and again at weeks 2, 6 and 14. They will also be evaluated at three time-points (weeks 2, 6 and 14) for clinical and biochemical UC disease activity as well as serum vedolizumab concentrations and anti-vedolizumab antibodies.

NCT ID: NCT03952364 Recruiting - Ulcerative Colitis Clinical Trials

The PRECIOUS Study: Predicting Crohn's & ColitIs Outcomes in the United States

Start date: October 10, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

A multi-center observational study based at referral centers and community hospitals within the US. Patients' blood will be collected at enrollment for testing with PredictSURE IBD™, which will occur at a later date. Patients will be prospectively followed up for 12 months with clinicians treating according to local standard of care, with a step-up or accelerated step-up regimen. Clinicians and patients will be blinded to the biomarker results.

NCT ID: NCT03950232 Recruiting - Ulcerative Colitis Clinical Trials

An Extension Study for Treatment of Moderately to Severely Active Ulcerative Colitis

ELEVATE UC OLE
Start date: September 5, 2019
Phase: Phase 3

The purpose of this open-label extension (OLE) study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of etrasimod in participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC) who previously received double-blind treatment (either etrasimod 2 mg per day or placebo) during participation in one of the qualified Phase 3 or Phase 2 double-blind, placebo-controlled parent studies including but not limited to: (APD334-301 [NCT03945188] or APD334-302 [NCT03996369] or APD334-210 [NCT04607837]).

NCT ID: NCT03942861 Recruiting - Ulcerative Colitis Clinical Trials

Sonographic Assessment in Severe Ulcerative Colitis Patients Admitted for Intravenous Corticosteroids and Eligible for Infliximab Rescue Therapy; a Prospective Clinician-blinded Observational Study Protocol.

SUCCES
Start date: February 21, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Introduction Acute severe ulcerative colitis (ASUC) occurs in 15-25 % of all ulcerative colitis (UC) patients. Initial treatment with intravenous corticosteroids fails in 30-50 % of patients, for whom the next line of treatment is biological therapy or colectomy. Acute colectomy has a higher risk of morbidity and mortality than a scheduled colectomy. Data suggest that an accelerated administration of biological treatment in corticosteroid non-responders compared to clinical practice, 5-7 days with intravenous corticosteroids, may be superior in inducing disease remission, thus potentially avoiding acute colectomy. However, there are currently no patient friendly and objective diagnostic tool to preselect patients for such a treatment. The aim of this study is to examine if gastrointestinal ultrasound (GIUS) could preselect corticosteroid non-responders to biological treatment after 48 hours to increase effectiveness of the second line therapy and thereby reduce the morbidity and mortality of ASUC. Methods and analysis The study is a clinician blinded observational multi-center study derived from the Department of Gastroenterology, Herlev Hospital, Denmark. Fifty ASUC patients will be included at the time of hospitalization and followed for 12 months. Baseline clinical activity scores, endoscopic scores, blood samples, fecal-calprotectin, vital parameters and GIUS measurements will be obtained prior to administration of intravenous corticosteroids. All examinations except fecal-calprotectin and endoscopy will be repeated at 48 ± 24 hours, 5-7 days and 3 months after treatment start. Endoscopic scores and fecal-calprotectin will be obtained after 3 months and an additional fecal-calprotectin after 6 ± 1 days. Treatment outcome will be registered at each event and after 12 months. Patients will be divided into corticosteroid responders and non-responders and compared to GIUS measurements at each event using non-parametric statistics (Mann-Whitney and Wilcoxon test) and time to endpoints by survival statistics (Kaplan Meier). ROC statistics will determine the best cutoff values for GIUS parameters for optimal sensitivity, specificity and accuracy. Ethics and dissemination The study is approved by the National committee on health research ethics (H-18031264). Results will be published in relevant scientific journals and presented at international conferences. Fully anonymized data will be accessible from authors upon request.

NCT ID: NCT03912714 Recruiting - Colitis, Ulcerative Clinical Trials

COlonic Salvage by Therapeutic Appendectomy.

COSTA
Start date: August 24, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Rationale: The annual incidence of ulcerative colitis (UC) amounts to 6-8 new cases per 100.000. Patients are initially treated medically, and colitis refractory to medical management is treated surgically, mostly by means of an (emergency) colectomy or a proctocolectomy with ileal J-pouch anastomosis. Over the past 10 years evidence has been accumulating indicating that the appendix has an immunomodulatory role in patients with UC reducing the need for medication and perhaps even colectomy. Objective: The objective of this prospective observational cohort study is to evaluate the effect of appendectomy on the disease course of patients with active ulcerative colitis despite standard step-up treatment including biologicals. The second objective is to determine if histological inflammation in the appendix resection specimens can be reliably predicted by pre-operative endoscopic biopsies of the appendix and correlated to clinical and pathological response after appendectomy. Study design: The design of the study is a prospective observational cohort study of 80 consecutive patients. Study population: Sixty patients of 18 years and older, with established diagnosis of UC and ongoing disease activity despite standard step-up treatment including biologicals. Furthermore, histological characteristics in appendix biopsies of 10 patients with non-active UC and 10 'healthy control' patients (e.g. patients undergoing endoscopy for polyps) will be evaluated and used as a reference control group. Intervention: Patients will undergo laparoscopic appendectomy in clinical or day care setting. Main study parameters/objectives: The primary outcome parameter is the number of patients achieving remission (Total Mayo score ≤2) 12 months after appendectomy. Secondary endpoints are reduction of medical therapy, the disease activity as measured with the Mayo score, colectomy rate, the health related quality of life and costs (EQ-5D, EORTC-QLQ-C30-QL and IBDQ), and histological appendix characteristics predictive of response.
