Filter by:This study (UNITI-2) will compare the effects (both positive and negative) of an initial treatment with ustekinumab to a placebo over 8 weeks in patients with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease.
This study (UNITI-1) will compare the effects (both positive and negative) of an initial treatment with ustekinumab to placebo over 8 weeks, in patients with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease who have either failed or could not tolerate at least one TNF-antagonist medications in the past (specifically, infliximab, adalimumab, or certolizumab pegol).
The aim of the non-interventional study is to document the daily doses in acute and remission therapy, the frequence of doses (1, 2, 3 or 4 times daily), when rectal dosage forms are added and, when and how long steroids are given.
This study aims to test the hypothesis that the accelerated infusion of infliximab is not inferior to the conventional 2 hour infusion with respect to the frequency of infusion reaction.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether ST10-021, an oral ferric iron preparation, is safe and effective in the treatment of iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) in subjects with non-active ulcerative colitis (UC).
This Phase II study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of rhuMAb Beta7 in patients with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis.
The xTAG Gastrointestinal Pathogen Panel (xTAG GPP) is a PCR-based assay to detect the presence or absence of gastrointestinal (GI) pathogens from human stool specimens. The objective of this study is to establish diagnostic accuracy of the xTAG GPP.
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory disease resulting in increased morbidity in patients. The current standard treatment for mild to moderate UC (MTMUC) includes 5-aminosalicylic compounds (5ASA) such as olsalazine and mesalamine, yet some patients continue to experience disease symptoms and flare-ups. These patients require higher dosages of 5ASA medications and in many cases escalate to steroid and/or immunosuppressant therapy which comprises higher risk of hazardous side effects. Curcumin, an active ingredient of the Indian herb Rhizoma Curcuma Longa, has been extensively studied in the context of inflammatory diseases. In humans, a controlled study using curcumin as an adjusted therapy to 5ASA medication has shown it to be superior to placebo in maintaining remission in MTMUC patients . A small, preliminary open label study has also shown efficacy in reducing disease symptoms and inflammatory markers in this group of patients . This data provides bases for investigating an integrative approach to optimize the current standard treatment in MTMUC patients. We speculate that using a combined therapy of 5ASA medication and curcumin could benefit this subgroup of patients and reduce morbidity and perhaps need for escalating pharmacological intervention.
The purpose of this study is to determine the pharmacokinetics (PK) and to assess safety and tolerability of a single dose of ASP3291 in subjects with ulcerative colitis.
The purpose of this study is to determine the reason patients are deficient in nutrients intake such as antioxidants vitamins.
