Filter by:Ulcerative colitis (UC) is one of the most common types of chronic and non-specific inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). It is characterized by cytokine-induced continuous and diffuse inflammatory infiltrations into the rectum's mucosa and extends proximally to the colon. Patients with UC predominantly have bloody diarrhea, abdominal pain, fecal urgency, and tenesmus, which extremely alters their quality of life. Although the precise pathological mechanism of UC remains unclear, several studies have been outlined many factors that could involve in the pathogenesis of UC, including, but not limited to, initiation of the inflammatory response, disruption of oxidant/antioxidant status, dysregulation of the immune response, alteration of gut microbiota, and delaying epithelial barrier healing. Loss of intestinal barrier function and dysregulated immune response are the key events during colitis development
Chronic intestinal hypoxia and accompanying mucosal inflammation is a hallmark of ulcerative colitis (UC). Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) involves breathing 100% oxygen under increased atmospheric pressure to increase tissue oxygenation. Two small prospective randomized controlled trials have demonstrated that the delivery of HBOT to UC patients hospitalized for acute moderate to severe flares results in improved remission rates and avoidance of in-hospital progression to biologics, small molecules, or colectomy. In this larger trial the study aims to confirm the treatment benefits of HBOT for hospitalized UC patients and study the immune-microbe mechanisms underpinning treatment response.
This study is only for the first in human phase 1a study designed to investigate the safety and tolerability of LIV001 in healthy participants. LIV001 will be investigated for the safety and efficacy in participants with Ulcerative Colitis (UC) in a phase 1b study.
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess whether the early introduction of biological treatment with a TNF-alpha inhibitor (infliximab) in addition to corticosteroids for severe ir-colitis/diarrhoea will reduce the time to grade ≤ 1 ir-colitis/diarrhoea compared to corticosteroids alone in patients scheduled for ICI treatment for solid tumors and untreated mCTCAE grade 2-4 diarrhoea or colitis. The main question it aims to answer is: • Can an early introduction of biological treatment with a TNF-alpha inhibitor (infliximab) in addition to corticosteroids reduce the time to grade ≤ 1 ir-colitis/diarrhoea compared to corticosteroids alone. Participants will be randomised 1:1: Arm A: All patients will receive same dose of methylprednisolone i.v. daily. Arm B: Patients allocated to Arm B will in addition receive infliximab i.v. day 1 or 2. Study patients are evaluated with blood samples, faecal samples and by sigmoidoscopy. Procedures are performed before randomisation and as part of follow up.
Although the incidence of inflammatory bowel disease is stable in North American and European countries, the incidence of inflammatory bowel disease is increasing in newly industrialized countries, especially in China. The treatment drugs for ulcerative colitis include 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA), glucocorticoids, immunosuppressants, and biological agents. The aim of this exploratory Clinical Trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of sacral nerve stimulation in patients with ulcerative colitis.
Patients presenting with severe symptoms of ulcerative colitis (UC) require hospital admission for urgent assessment and therapy. Endoscopic examination of the rectum and/or distal colon is often performed to assess severity and obtain tissue for histopathologic evaluation, but this is often extended to full colonoscopy to assess the extent of bowel involvement. Full colonoscopy is hazardous in this setting
The goal of this trial is to create personalized treatments for each patient admitted to the hospital with acute severe ulcerative colitis (ASUC). The study will test the feasibility and acceptability of these treatment strategies among patients and physicians so that the study team can later do a larger trial to test whether the medication treatment pathways help patients avoid colectomy while ensuring patient's are safe.
This is a dose ranging exploratory phase 1 pilot study to assess engraftment, safety, and efficacy of CP101, an oral microbiome therapeutic, in participants with active mild-to-moderate Ulcerative colitis. A total of 30 patients who meet eligibility criteria will be randomized 1:1 to either a short or extended induction dosing with CP101. An assessment of the microbiome will occur at baseline, Day 6, Week 4, Week 8, Week 12, Week 16, and Week 24.
A phase 2a, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, parallel-group study to administer KSP-0243 or a placebo once daily after breakfast for 8 weeks in 100 patients with mild to moderate active ulcerative colitis.
To describe the effectiveness, treatment patterns, quality of life, and safety of participants with moderately or severely active UC treated with filgotinib in a real-world setting.
