Filter by:Based on the inaccuracies of the current classification scheme for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), the failure of surgical pouches and the findings of retrospective observational trials to date, we hypothesize that a significant proportion of patients with UC will have small bowel involvement that will result in a change in diagnosis to CD or the recognition of a new phenotype of IBD. The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of small bowel pathology in patients diagnosed with UC using WCE. This information will aid in the current efforts to re-classify IBD using improved endoscopic and imaging technologies, genetic information and serologic information.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the Adacolumn Apheresis System to treat the signs and symptoms of ulcerative colitis.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of infliximab (Remicade) in patients with Ulcerative Colitis. Infliximab (Remicade) targets specific proteins in the body's immune system to help control the development of inflammation to help reduce painful disease.
This dose comparison study, taking place at over 200 sites worldwide, will compare the dosing, safety and efficacy of an investigational medicine OPC-6535 to the dosing, safety and efficacy of Asacol ® in the maintenance of remission in subjects with ulcerative colitis.
The purpose of The PROSPECT Study is to evaluate an investigational medication for the treatment of moderate to severe ulcerative colitis. This study is being conducted at up to 38 clinical research centers in the US, Canada, and Belgium, and is open to male and female patients 12 years and older. Participants in the study will have a number of visits to a research center over a five-month period. All study related care and medication is provided to qualified participants at no cost: this includes all visits, examinations, and laboratory work.
This study is a prospective clinical study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of two different doses of Asacol for the treatment of moderately active ulcerative colitis. In addition, a new tablet formulation will be evaluated at one of the two doses.
The purpose of the HARMONY study is to assess the safety and efficacy of an investigational drug called HuZAF, in patients with moderate to severe Crohn's disease (CD). HuZAF is a humanized anti-Interferon-gamma (anti-IFN-γ) monoclonal antibody, which binds and blocks IFN-γ, a protein in the immune system that is involved in inflammation. Antibodies are proteins normally produced by our immune system to help fight off foreign substances. Scientists have been able to make therapeutic humanized monoclonal antibodies, similar to the antibodies in our bodies, to target diseases.
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluating rosiglitazone: 4 mg tablets or placebo tablets administered orally twice daily for 12 weeks. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of rosiglitazone in the treatment of mild to moderately active ulcerative colitis. Disease activity will be measured using a standard disease activity index. Calculation of the index requires patients to undergo flexible sigmoidoscopy at the start of the study and at week 12.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the drug OPC-6535 compared to a placebo in patients with active Ulcerative Colitis. Depending on their response, participants will be offered the investigational medication for up to one year after the study's completion at select sites.
