Filter by:Vedolizumab is a medicine that helps to reduce symptoms of IBD and the associated inflammation in the digestive system for participants with ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease. In this study, participants with ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease 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.
Inflammatory bowel disease consists of either ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn's disease (CD). The main aim of this study is to describe real-world treatment patterns in adults with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease when treated with vedolizumab. This will include the administration choices which can either be an infusion through a vein (intravenous or IV), or an injection just under the skin (subcutaneous injection, or SC). Treatment will be determined by the study doctor according to routine clinical practice.
The purpose of this study is to gain a better understanding of the disease burden and unmet need of perianal fistulas within Crohn's disease (CD) in Ontario.
Crohn's patients receiving ileocolonic resection are randomized into extensive mesenteric resection group and local mesenteric resection group.
Purpose: Inflammatory bowel disease patients undergoing treatment with varying biologic agents will be evaluated for incidences of paradoxical immune reactions, the risk factors associated with those paradoxical immune reactions, and whether the paradoxical immune reactions and their associated risk factors differ based on formulation of biologic agent. Participants: All adults (≥18 year) with confirmed IBD on a biologic agent or with plans to initiate treatment in 1 month Procedures (methods): Subjects undergoing treatment with a biologic agent will be followed indefinitely for paradoxical immune reactions. Data will be collected at baseline as well as serum and plasma for banking. Subjects will be followed at 6 month intervals either via email, telephone interviews or at the time of clinic follow-up visits. In the event of a de-novo paradoxical reaction, specific information will be collected from sites in an event capture form, with data abstracted from routine clinical care for the paradoxical reaction. Subjects will continue to be followed every 3 months after the event via email, telephone contact to determine whether resolution and/or recurrence occurred, and to determine any changes in medical therapy. Serum and plasma will be re-collected at the time of first event for comparison to baseline samples and to samples from controls (those on biologics without study documented paradoxical immune reactions). At resolution of the event, patient will return to 6 month follow up schedule. Subjects can discontinue and/or fail a particular biologic treatment; therefore they will also be followed for paradoxical immune reactions, on any new biologic treatment they undergo while in the study.
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are at increased risk of infections. This increased susceptibility to infections is due to the disease itself, but also be-cause many patients with autoimmune conditions are treated with immuno-suppressive drugs, such as azathioprine and or TNF-a inhibitors. Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus) is a cause of worldwide morbidity and mortality and one of the most common cause of bacterial meningitis in adults. Infection with pneumococcus can be prevented with vaccination. Two pneumococcal vaccine are used in Denmark, the 23 valent polysaccharide-based vaccine (23PPV) and the 13 valent of conjugate pneumococcal vaccines (PCV13). In this study the investigators wish to study the effect of pneumococcal vaccination with either PPV23 or PCV13 in IBD patients treated with either TNF-a inhibitors, azathioprine or untreated.
To assess the safety and efficacy of intravenous (IV) PDA001 infused every two weeks for up to 5 total infusions in subjects with Crohn's disease who are refractory to one or more standard Crohn's disease therapies.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of ultrasound imaging compared to MRE (Magnetic Resonance Enterography) a form of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in accurately diagnosing and following Small Bowel Crohn Disease (SBCD) in children.
This study is looking at the advantage of establishing surgical drainage for Crohn's fistulas and abscesses prior to starting medical therapy.
Mare's milk consumption could improve the well-being in patients with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, respectively.
