Filter by:Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a type of inflammatory bowel disease that causes inflammation and bleeding from the lining of the rectum and colon (large intestine).Crohn's disease (CD) is a long-lasting condition causing inflammation that can affect any part of the gut. CD may cause tiredness, loose stools with or without bleeding, abdominal pain, weight loss, and fever. This study will evaluate the effect of repeated infusions of risankizumab on the pharmacokinetics of sensitive probe substrates of Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes in participants with moderately to severely active UC or CD. Risankizumab is an investigational drug being developed to treat trial participants with inflammatory diseases such as UC and CD. The study is split into two periods. In Period 1, participants will receive single oral doses of CYP sensitive probes and in Period 2, participants will receive risankizumab followed by single oral doses of CYP sensitive probes. Around 20 adult participants with moderately to severely active CD or UC will be enrolled in the study across multiple sites worldwide. In Period 1, participants will receive oral doses of CYP sensitive probes on Day 1. In Period 2, participants will receive risankizumab by intravenous (IV) infusion on Days 1, 29 and 57 followed by oral CYP sensitive probes on Day 64. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the course of the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests and checking for side effects.
Researchers are trying to determine if subjects with diabetic gastroparesis and symptoms of bloating will have a greater improvement in bloating symptoms when treated with rifaximin.
The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of re-induction with ustekinumab ≈6mg/kg IV followed by two different maintenance dosing regimens 90 mg subcutaneous every 8 weeks (Q8W) vs 90 mg subcutaneous every 4 weeks(Q4W) on clinical, biological and pharmacological outcomes in patients with Crohn's disease who show a secondary loss of response over time
This study series consists of four related studies and aims to explore and describe many important elements of alopecia areata over three key areas: (1) the current epidemiology of alopecia areata, (2) the prevalence and incidence of psychiatric co-morbidities in people with alopecia areata, (3) the prevalence and incidence of autoimmune and atopic conditions in people with alopecia areata, and (4) the incidence of common infections in people with alopecia areata.
Despite the advent of multiple novel medications, many patients with Crohn's disease (CD) fail to achieve mucosal healing (MH). Exclusive enteral nutrition (EEN) has been shown to induce clinical remission accompanied by MH in many of CD patients. The aim of this proposal is to explore the effectiveness of the "Tasty&Healthy" dietary approach based on avoiding "pro-inflammatory" and processed ingredients, for inducing and maintaining remission and MH in children and young adults. This approach is based on the previously published charity cook-book "Tasty&Healthy" and might be more feasible than currently available nutritional treatments in CD. It does not offer a rigid diet with specific nutrients and does not require concurrent use of a formula feed. The investigators hypothesize that a flexible dietary intervention of excluding processed and pro-inflammatory ingredients will improve the rate of clinical remission and MH without the need for liquid formula or structured rigid diet which are more difficult to adhere to. The investigators also hypothesize that home kits of Fecal calprotectin (FC), can personalize the diet thereby increasing feasibility for maintenance therapy in some patients.
The aim of this study is to evaluate prospectively a possible effect of an oral polymeric diet enriched with TGF-beta 2 (Modulen) as compared to Budesonide (one of the commonly accepted treatments for Crohn's disease) on clinical response, mucosal healing and intestinal microbiota in adult patients with newly diagnosed Crohn's disease using a capsule endoscopy.
The reason for this study is to determine the long-term efficacy and safety of the study drug mirikizumab in participants with Crohn's disease.
The purpose of this study is to describe the Crohn's Disease (CD)-related secondary healthcare resource utilisation of patients in the 6 months pre- and 12 months post-activation of Care4Today® inflammatory bowel disease (C4T IBD) alongside standard of care (SOC) in the management of CD.
Inflammatory bowel disease ((IBD), which includes Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC)), is a chronic, immune-mediated disease characterized by recurrent episodes of relapse. The incidence of IBD is increasing worldwide and poses as a burden that reduces quality of life and has a significant impact on health care resources. The advent of monoclonal antibodies to tumor necrosis factor-α (anti-TNF) has revolutionized treatment of IBD, improving rates of remission and reducing hospitalizations and surgeries. Nevertheless, many patients do not adequately respond to these therapies or lose response over time. Thus, there is an important need for novel immunomodulating agents to improve our ability to achieve remission. Besides its traditional role in bone homeostasis, several studies have recognized the important role Vitamin D plays in modulating the immune response, cancer, and cardiovascular disease. Specifically, Vitamin D may mediate immunity by modulating autophagy in leukocytes and regulating the gut microbiome. Thus, Vitamin D may play an important role in IBD. Furthermore, evidence suggests that the effect of vitamin D may be mediated through the TNF-α pathway, suggesting a synergy with anti-TNF therapy. This is a randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled trial to study the effect of Vitamin D3 as an adjunct therapy for patients with active CD, UC, or IBD unspecified who are undergoing anti-TNF induction therapy.
Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory condition with phases where the disease is active and other, where there are no symptoms. Exclusive enteral nutrition (EEN), a liquid only diet without allowance of any extra food, is the main treatment for children with active CD. However, when children stop the liquid diet and return to their normal diet, most of them will experience an increase in their gut inflammation, mostly without symptoms initially. The aim of this study is to investigate this phenomenon by exploring if diet and gut bacteria play a role. Furthermore, the investigators aim to test whether a new, ordinary food-based diet, called the Crohn's Disease TReatment with EATing (CD-TREAT) diet can help control gut inflammation during the early food reintroduction phase, after EEN completion, compared to an unrestricted, free diet.
