Filter by:Anemia is the the most frequently extradigestive symptom for Inflammatory Bowel Disease. This is due to iron deficiency and inflammation. Most of treatments aim to control inflammation using anti-TNF alpha therapy which should theorically reduce anemia. The aim of the study is to show that perfusion of iron associated to anti-TNF therapy should reduce anemia and improve quality of life of patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether multi-convergent therapy is helpful to patients with inflammatory bowel disease who have functional abdominal symptoms or high perceived levels of psychological stress.
Since the duration of most studies with IV iron in IBD subjects have been only 4-12 weeks studies there is a need to follow-up on long term safety and efficacy of any maintenance iron therapy. This study represents subjects from the Lead-in Study (P-Monofer-IBD-01) on iron isomaltoside 1000 (Monofer®) to assess the long term safety of iron isomaltoside 1000 (Monofer®) and its ability to maintain stable haemoglobin in IBD subjects with Iron Deficiency Anaemia (IDA).
This work will use a new approach to measure how surgery effects human biochemistry and metabolism. It will create a metabolic signature or 'phenotype' for surgical injury that will help clinicians choose the right surgical treatments for an individual. This is because metabolism is based on an individual's genes, disease burden and environmental influences such as gut microbiota. This study will use a scientific method based on computational analysis of spectra taken from techniques known as Mass Spectrometry (MS) and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. This science is called 'metabonomics' and it has many advantages. Firstly, it provides a measure of thousands of metabolites at a single moment in time that are unique to the individual and it therefore gives a 'systems' overview of a persons metabolism. Secondly it is able to process many hundreds of samples quickly. The investigators are aiming to integrate the investigators metabolic data with genetic information about patients or bacteria wherever possible. This will be the first time that a 'systems biology' approach has been used in surgery, with potentially significant gains to me made in pre operative risk stratification and optimisation. By performing this analysis at all stages of the surgical journey (preoperatively, during the operation and after the surgery) it will ensure the right treatments are given to the right patient at the right time. By creating longitudinal models of the biochemical responses to surgery, predict at a much earlier stage those patients at risk of developing complications. This will improve outcome after surgery. This work will use a metabonomic approach to create new tools for surgeons to use during operations based on tissue biology. For example the investigators will be able to measure the metabolic content of tumours in real time by measuring the biological content of diathermy smoke. This has the potential to change intra-operative decision making and further improve outcome.
The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 2 maintenance regimens of ustekinumab administered subcutaneously to patients with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease who responded to treatment with intravenous ustekinumab in studies CNTO1275CRD3001 and CNTO1275CRD3002, compared to subcutaneously administered placebo.
This study (UNITI-2) will compare the effects (both positive and negative) of an initial treatment with ustekinumab to a placebo over 8 weeks in patients with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease.
This study (UNITI-1) will compare the effects (both positive and negative) of an initial treatment with ustekinumab to placebo over 8 weeks, in patients with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease who have either failed or could not tolerate at least one TNF-antagonist medications in the past (specifically, infliximab, adalimumab, or certolizumab pegol).
The purpose of this study is to determine whether ST10-021, an oral ferric iron preparation, is safe and effective in the treatment of iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) in subjects with non-active Crohn's Disease (CD).
The purpose of this study is to measure the immune response in 18-40 year old IBD patients after receiving the hepatitis A vaccine.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether ST10-021, an oral ferric iron preparation, is safe and effective in the treatment of iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) in subjects with non-active ulcerative colitis (UC).
