Filter by:The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of 2 different maintenance dose regimens of TEV-48574 subcutaneous (sc) administered every 4 weeks (Q4W) in adult participants with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Secondary objectives of the study are to: - evaluate the efficacy of 2 different maintenance dose regimens of TEV-48574 sc administered Q4W in adult participants with IBD - evaluate the safety and tolerability of 2 different maintenance dose regimens of TEV-48574 sc administered Q4W in adult participants with IBD - evaluate the immunogenicity of 2 different maintenance dose regimens of TEV-48574 sc administered Q4W in adult participants with IBD The total duration for a participant in the double-blind period only is 66 weeks; and for a participant in the open-label extension (OLE) period, up to an additional 268 weeks.
Approximately 3 million people in the United States are living with inflammatory bowel disease, which includes Crohn's Disease (CD). There are limited treatment options approved for use in children and adults with Crohn's disease. Physicians need better ways to inform decisions on treatment. The main reason for this research study is to determine if a computer program that calculates an individualized dose based on a patient's blood testing results (precision dosing) can better achieve the best possible response to infliximab compared to standard dosing (conventional dosing).
This is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study, consisting of a single ascending dose (SAD) part with integrated food effect (FE) arm, and a multiple ascending dose (MAD) part to assess the safety, tolerability, and PK of ascending single and multiple oral doses of LMT503. The study will start with the SAD part.
The postoperative recurrence of Crohn's diseases (CD) remains high. Stapled anti-mesenteric functional end-to-end anastomosis was safe for CD patients. Its impact on the postoperative recurrence of CD was unknown. Whether it is superior than the conventional anastomosis (stapled antimesenteric isoperistaltic side-to-side anastomosis) needs explored. The trial aims to compare the different impacts of the two antimesenteric anastomosis configurations on the anastomotic recurrence following bowel resection.
A study of clinical characteristics and potential prognostic factors in inflammatory bowel disease
Background: Bacteria and other microorganisms that live in the intestines (the gut microbiome) play an important role in a person s health. The gut microbiome helps to regulate the immune system and control inflammation. Imbalances in the gut microbiome have been linked to illnesses such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). People diagnosed with IBD can have serious health problems. Researchers want to know more about how the gut microbiome affects the development and progression of IBD in children. In this natural history study, they will compare the gut microbiomes of healthy children with those who have IBD. Objective: To collect stool and samples of intestine tissue from children with and without IBD undergoing colonoscopy. Eligibility: People under 21 years old who are having a colonoscopy at the Inova Health System or Pediatric Specialists of Virginia. Design: Participants will fill out a questionnaire. They will answer questions about their history. Topics may include how they were fed as infants; how they were born; and how often they took antibiotics. Stool and tissue samples from the intestines will be taken during the participants colonoscopy. They may also give samples of blood and urine. Participants may be asked to provide additional stool, blood, and urine samples. They may do this up to 3 times per year. These samples may be collected at the clinic; they may also be collected at home and mailed to the researchers. If they have more colonoscopies, participants may be asked for more tissue samples. Participants will be enrolled for up to 10 years. ...
This study aims to test the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of a comprehensive self-management (CSM) intervention for people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The CSM-IBD intervention is an adaption of the CSM intervention initially developed for individuals with irritable bowel syndrome. The intervention has eight sessions which cover an introduction to IBD, symptom tracking, cognitive behavioral strategies, relaxation, sleep, diet, and pain management.
Recent researches have reported that biologics might be also effective for stricturing CD. However, the data were largely retrospective. Prospective studied are needed for evaluate the efficacy of biologics for stricturing Crohn's diseases.
Crohn's disease(CD),a type of inflammatory bowel disease(IBD), is a chronic intestinal recurrent inflammatory disease involving the entire digestive tract. And Ustekinumab, a monoclonal antibody against the p40 subunit of interleukin-12 and interleukin-23, is a newly targeted drug approved for the treatment of Crohn's disease in recent years.Based on the high-throughput imaging characteristic analysis technique, this study quantitatively analyzed the transmural inflammation of Crohn's disease, and discussed its prognostic value in the treatment of Ustekinumab, and further analyzed the increment of its relative clinical index.
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) encompasses several chronic diseases of which ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) are the most representative. IBD is characterised by the presence of an inflammatory process that affects different segments of the digestive tract and has a chronic and relapsing course with flares of activity. Inflammatory activity in IBD is associated with an increase in peripheral blood activated granulocytes and monocyte-macrophages and intestinal infiltration by these inflammatory cells, which are largely responsible for tissue damage. In recent years, observational, prospective studies and meta-analyses of these studies have contributed to consider granulocytapheresis (GMA) as an effective and safe alternative in the treatment of UC. This apheresis technique is based on recirculation of the patient's blood through a circuit with cellulose acetate spheres that perform a selective elimination of granulocytes and monocyte-macrophages leading to a reduction in pro-inflammatory cytokines and adhesion molecule expression, and an increase in anti-inflammatory mediators. These events in the GMA column are followed by other immunological changes, most notably a decrease in CD10+ (activated) neutrophils, leading to a compensation from the bone marrow of a CD10- (immature) neutrophil population. GMA can be considered as a therapeutic alternative in corticodependent IBD, especially in UC. In addition, it can reduce or limit the need for corticosteroids, so another possible application is as a "bridge" treatment in patients starting treatment with thiopurine immunomodulators. A beneficial effect can also be obtained by combining apheresis with biological treatments, especially after a partial response or loss of response to these treatments. Finally, some extraintestinal manifestations associated with IBD may also benefit from its use. The GRACE study is proposed for the evaluation of the efficacy of GMA with Adacolumn® under real conditions of use and according to the indications described in the instructions for use of the medical device.
