Filter by:Coral is conducting a large study comparing and predicting the relative effectiveness of different medications for autoimmune patients. Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) who have been diagnosed with either Ulcerative Colitis or Crohn's Disease and are undergoing treatment are eligible to participate. Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) and Psoriasis (Ps) will also be enrolled. A novel clinical test will be performed to predict the responsiveness of a particular patient to different immune modulating therapies used in these conditions.
Vedolizumab is a medicine that helps to reduce sensitivity and pain in the digestive system for participants with UC or CD. In this study, adults with UC or CD will be treated with vedolizumab according to their clinic's standard practice. Participants will receive vedolizumab as either an infusion or an injection just under the skin (subcutaneous). The main aim of the study is to observe real-world treatment patterns in participants treated with vedolizumab. The study sponsor will not be involved in how participants are treated but will provide instructions on how the clinics will record what happens during the study.
The Prediction of Anastomotic Insufficiency risk after Colorectal surgery (PANIC) study aims to establish a machine-learning-based application that allows for accurate preoperative prediction of patients at risk for anastomotic insufficiency after colon and colorectal surgery.
The purpose of this study is to assess the ability of a whole-food, plant-based (WFPB) diet to produce symptomatic remission in Crohn's Disease patients.
This study is open to adults, aged 18-75 years, with moderate to severe Crohn's disease. The purpose of this study is to find out whether BI 706321 combined with ustekinumab helps people with Crohn's disease. BI 706321 is a medicine being developed to treat Crohn's disease. Ustekinumab is a medicine already used to treat Crohn's disease. Participants are put into 2 groups randomly, which means by chance. One group gets BI 706321 and ustekinumab. The other group gets placebo and ustekinumab. Participants take BI 706321 or placebo as tablets every day. Placebo tablets look like BI 706321 tablets but do not contain any medicine. Ustekinumab is given as an infusion into a vein once at the beginning of the study. After that, ustekinumab is given as an injection under the skin every 2 months. Participants take BI 706321 or placebo in combination with ustekinumab for 3 months. After that, participants receive only ustekinumab for another 9 months. Participants are in the study for about 1 year. During this time, they visit the study site about 13 times. At 3 of the visits, doctors do a colonoscopy to examine the bowel. The results from the colonoscopies are compared between the 2 groups. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
This project plans to develop a new diet therapy suitable for China -- CD-C-food, which is more in line with the common diet of Chinese patients' eating habits and economic conditions, and its expected therapeutic effect and influence on intestinal microorganism are similar to that of EEN. In order to explore the influence of intestinal microorganisms and their metabolites on the clinical remission effect and inflammatory response of patients with CD-C-Food, and to reveal the possible internal mechanism， a randomized control of adult subjects with a healthy CD-Chinese-food diet, treatment group of CD patients and animal model will be conducted by using intestinal microbiome, bacterial metabolite analysis, inflammatory factors detection and other technical means.
Approximately 3 million people in the United States are living with inflammatory bowel disease, which includes Crohn's Disease, with many of those being young children and adolescents. Physicians need better ways to inform decisions on treatment. The main reason for this research study is to determine if a computer program that formulates a dose based on a patient's blood testing results can better achieve the optimal drug level as compared to standard dosing.
Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that can dramatically affect the quality of life of patients. Due to its transmural nature (involvement of the entire thickness of the intestinal wall), it naturally progresses to intestinal destruction (stenosis, fistula) which requires intestinal resection in approximately half of patients during their follow-up. The long-term goal for patients is to maintain a normal life, that is, without symptoms and without intestinal destruction. For this, the short and medium term therapeutic objectives have evolved in recent years. Clinical remission is not a sufficient goal since it has failed to alter the natural history of the disease. The current objective to be achieved is the combination of clinical remission and endoscopic mucosal healing since it is associated with a reduced risk of progression (reappearance of symptoms, hospitalization, intestinal resection). Fecal calprotectin, better accepted than colonoscopy, is a non-invasive biomarker of endoscopic inflammatory activity in CD. The CALM study recently showed that close follow-up with clinical and biological evaluation (assays of CRP and fecal calprotectin), called "tight control", associated with therapeutic intensification in the absence of clinical or biological remission, was associated with a better rate of endoscopic mucosal healing at 1 year than follow-up based solely on symptoms. Thus, the "CALM" strategy is considered to be the current benchmark. Transmural healing evaluated by MRI is also a promising objective associated with a reduced risk of progression (reappearance of symptoms, hospitalization, bowel resection). In addition, it could prevent intestinal destruction. A recent study by our team suggested that calprotectin (mucosal assessment) and MRI (transmural assessment) may be complementary and be a better therapeutic goal. We hypothesize that a "CALM + MRI" strategy concomitantly targeting transmural healing would be superior to the "CALM" strategy alone in maintaining clinical remission without corticosteroids in patients with CD treated with biotherapies.
The main aim is to learn about the risk of cancer after treatment with darvadstrocel compared to other standards of care in people with Crohn's Disease. In this study, the study doctors will review each participant's past medical records. This study is about collecting existing information only; participants will not receive treatment or need to visit a study doctor during this study.
This is a prospective, two-centre, double-blind, parallel-arm, randomised, placebo-controlled trial evaluating the impact of FMT on patients with active Crohn's disease.
