Filter by:Monocentric, prospective observational study to assess bowel inflammation in children with chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) using multispectral optoacoustic tomography (MSOT).
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), including Crohn's disease (CD), ulcerative colitis (UC) and IBD-unclassified (IBD-U), are characterised by chronic inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. Over the past 50 years, the incidence of IBD has increased globally, with the highest increase in industrialised countries. During the last 25 years, the incidence of IBD has increased dramatically among teenagers in northern France, with an increase of 126% and 156% for CD and UC, respectively. Physical fitness is a set of attributes related to a person's ability to perform physical activities that require aerobic capacity, endurance, strength or flexibility and is determined by a combination of regular physical activity and genetically inherited ability. Physical fitness, widely recognised as an important health determinant, plays an important role in growth and development. Due to the evidence-based importance of physical fitness for young people's health status, attention should be paid to the assessment of physical fitness at these ages and whatever the health status. At this time, there is no study on the assessment of physical fitness in IBD pediatric patient.
BACKGROUND/RATIONALE: Treatment outcomes of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have improved enormously during the past decade due to the use of anti-tumour necrosis factor (anti-TNF) therapy. As a result, 67 to 91% of paediatric patients and 66% of adult patients is still in sustained remission two years after the initiation of anti-TNF therapy. Prolonged use of anti-TNFs comes with disadvantages such as dose dependent susceptibility to infections and dermatological adverse effects. Preliminary, mostly uncontrolled studies suggest that dose reduction by dosing interval lengthening is a realistic option in a relevant proportion of patients with IBD, provided that intensive follow-up is applied. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate whether a faecal calprotectin (FC) guided strategy of anti-TNF dosing interval lengthening is non-inferior in maintaining remission in patients with IBD, compared with an unchanged dosing interval.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate: a) the efficacy of ustekinumab dosing in inducing clinical remission, b) safety profile of ustekinumab, and c) ustekinumab exposure (pharmacokinetics [PK]) in pediatric participants with moderately to severely active UC.
This study, A3921210 is designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of tofacitinib in pediatric participants with moderately to severely active UC. In the US and EU, patients with prior TNFi failure or intolerance will be enrolled. Outside of the US or EU, patients having had inadequate response or intolerance to oral or IV corticosteroids or azathioprine or 6-mercaptopurine or TNFi will be enrolled. All eligible participants will initially receive open label tofacitinib at a dose expected to produce equivalent systemic exposure to that observed in adults receiving 5 mg BID with the option for individual dose increase to 10 mg BID adult dose equivalent if dose escalation criteria are met. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of tofacitinib based on remission in pediatric participants with moderately to severely active UC. The primary endpoint is remission by central read Mayo score following 44 weeks in the maintenance phase. Remission is defined by a Mayo score of 2 points or lower, with no individual subscore exceeding 1 point and a rectal bleeding subscore of 0. The study Design is an open-label Phase 3 study that includes a screening period of up to 4-weeks duration, an 8-week or 16-week induction phase, a 44-week maintenance phase, and a 24-month extension phase for pediatric participants with moderately to severely active UC. Participants will have a follow-up visit 4 weeks after the last dose of study intervention and a telephone contact 8 weeks later to assess for any adverse events (AEs)/serious adverse events (SAEs). The total maximum duration of this study will be up to 180 weeks.
The study aims to describe alterations in the contact activation system during active and inactive ulcerative colitis. Contact activation system measures are compared in a cross sectional (healthy controls vs. active disease) and longitudinal (active diasese vs. inactive disease) fashion.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability, efficacy, and biomarker response of BMS-986165 administered orally in participants with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis. The study was originally designed to test deucravacitinib at two doses for 12 weeks compared to placebo. After the initial 12-Week period, all subjects receive active therapy (open-label extension). With protocol amendment 2, one of the dose treatment arms is being removed from the 12-week double blind period with no change to the open-label extension.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether oral etrasimod is a safe and effective treatment for moderately active ulcerative colitis in adult participants.
This is a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, proof of clinical principle study to explore the efficacy and safety of orally administered BBT-401-1S in subjects with ulcerative colitis.
