Filter by:This study will enroll adult and pediatric participants across 3 phases: Research phase, Clinical Validation (CV) and Analytical Validation (AV) phase. Sites selected to participate in the study will enroll participants in the either the Research phase or CV and AV phase. Research Phase will enroll participants in Cohort 1 Pre-diagnosis/+GI symptoms only. CV and AV phase will be open to enrollment in parallel. CV phase will enroll participants in Cohort 2 Diagnosed IBD, Pre-treatment, Cohort 3 Potential Cross-Reactive Diseases and Cohort 4 Healthy controls. AV phase will enroll participants in Cohort 2 Diagnosed IBD, Pre-treatment and Cohort 4 Healthy controls. Enrollment will be ongoing until sponsor notification for closure.
Evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of adapted coached RxWell for patients ages 16-25. Adapt and beta test the modified RxWell product to include chronic disease management and transition readiness. Evaluate RxWell usage and its impact to the TRAQ questionnaire over time.
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has demonstrated diagnostic and therapeutic potential for a number of conditions and is an approved treatment for depression. Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) has a significant impact on mental health, and comorbid maladaptive behaviors and pain are highly prevalent in patients with IBD and are often under-treated. The investigators predict TMS will improve comorbid maladaptive behavior (heightened interoceptive awareness, sleep, fatigue, catastrophizing, anxiety and depression), reduce pain and improve quality of life in persons with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Further, TMS benefits will be associated with changes in gut microbiome as measured by stool, blood and urine samples and normalization of IBD-associated changes in brain structure and/or function as measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
The main objective of the present study is to describe the quality of life of patients under 25 years of age with pediatric-onset IBD. The quality of life will be described according to the age and the activity of the disease in order to make it possible to associate with the different states of health a measure of quality of life (utility score) from utility values established in the French context. These data are essential for the realization of medico-economic models.
The research is being done to study the immune responses to COVID-19 vaccination in patients with rheumatic diseases.
The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of treatment (medical and/or surgical) on Health-related Quality of Life (HRQoL) in participants with Crohn's Disease (CD) and Complex Perianal Fistula (CPF), by the Quality of Life in patients with Anal Fistula Questionnaire (QoLAF-Q), at 12 months after treatment initiation in routine clinical practice.
Patients with the chronic bowel disease pouchitis is disabled by bloody diarrhoea and abdominal pain often followed by fever. Pouchitis is an inflammation in a pouch, a reservoir formed by the small intestine in the management of the chronic inflammatory bowel disease, ulcerative colitis. Chronic pouchitis is a rare disease with a prevalence in Denmark of <1.8 per 10,000 people, mostly younger people (<50 years). The standard treatment for pouchitis is intensive broad-spectrum antibiotics for a longer period. However, the treatment often fails after repeated treatments. Recent studies show that patients with pouchitis have an altered composition of the gut flora, called microbiota, compared to healthy individuals. As shown by several studies, faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) with administration of faeces from healthy donors can alter the microbiota. Treatment with faecal microbiota transplantation is today known to be the ultimate treatment for antibiotic resistant recurrent bowel infection with the bacteria Clostridium difficile. It is however still uncertain if faecal microbiota transplantation can be used to the treatment of chronic pouchitis. The study primary aims to investigate if transplantation of faeces from healthy donors administrated as enemas to patients with chronic pouchitis is superior to placebo for the treatment of pouchitis. The project is designed as a multi-center, double-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled treatment study. A positive result from the project will result in an improved treatment to pouchitis patients. Moreover, repeated long-lasting broad-spectrum treatments with antibiotic, which carry a high risk of antibiotic resistance in the society, will be avoided.
This registry on Tofacitinib and biologics (anti-integrin/anti-TNF) in the treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC) patients in Germany will extend the prospective documentation of safety issues and efficacy in induction and maintenance therapy of Tofacitinib (Xeljanz®) in addition to other biologics used in Germany with a particular interest in predictors of long-term responses and favorable disease outcome or to predict severe side effects caused by therapy with Januskinase(JAK)- inhibitors/biologics.
This is an observational study of medical marijuana manufactured and dispensed by Ilera and given as standard treatment for a variety of approved serious medical conditions as defined by individual state law. All patients who are receiving one of the four formulations (Dream, Soothe, Shine and Ease) of medical marijuana will be provided a study flyer and asked to contact the study team via phone or email. Once the study team confirms eligibility, the study team will meet the subject face-to-face most likely at their dispensary (or other mutually agreeable location) and obtain informed consent, and assent when appropriate. Initial baseline demographic information, medical history and medication inventory will be completed. Also, since it is possible that the Investigators will enroll subjects across the region, Investigators anticipate the need to seek consent over the phone for many patients. This will be done via Skype, Go to Meeting, Facetime or similar platforms so that the Investigators can have a face to face interaction with the potential subjects. Regardless of where this discussion takes place (i.e., in person or via the web), all reasonable safeguards to ensure patient privacy will be taken. Patients or their legally authorized representative (LAR) will be given sufficient (i.e., up to several hours/days) to make a decision to participate in this study. Study staff will fax or email the consent form for their signature and no study procedures will begin until the signed consent form is received by the study team. The subjects or their LARs will be instructed on obtaining the blood samples. Blood draws will be completed in the subjects' home after one of their standard doses is taken.
The investigators will compare two physician behaviors for managing pain in patients with IBD: proactive vs. reactive. Both the proactive and reactive behavior/strategies are standard of care at the institution in which the study will be performed. The PROACTIVE strategy is an IBD-specific analgesic orderset (built into our EMR and approved by the institution's Pharmacy and Therapeutics committee), the REACTIVE strategy is a traditional "reactive" analgesic prescribing (prescribing medications only when patients have pain). The PROACTIVE IBD-specific analgesic orderset consists of medications which have evidence for use in IBD-related pain. This orderset is an educational guide, it does not force any order. The reactive prescribing habits could contain an array of pain medications depending on what the provider wants to prescribe. Aims: Aim 1: To assess whether there is a difference in pain scores or functional activity among hospitalized patients with IBD between reactive vs proactive physician behaviors. Aim 2: To assess whether there is a difference in inpatient opioid-prescribing between reactive vs proactive physician behaviors. Aim 3: To assess whether there is a difference in health care utilization, including length-of-stay and 30-day readmission, between reactive vs proactive physician behaviors.
