Filter by:This is a randomized, controlled study evaluating empagliflozin tablets administered daily for 8 weeks. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of empagliflozin in the treatment of mild to moderately active ulcerative colitis. Disease activity will be measured using Mayo score for ulcerative colitis activity. Calculation of the score requires patients to undergo colonoscopy at the start of the study and at week 8.
This is a single-center trial, randomized, single-blind, placebo-controlled clinical intervention study which intends to explore the safety and effectiveness of FMT capsule for the treatment of ulcerative colitis with depression.
SPH3127-US-01 is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary efficacy of SPH3127 for the treatment of mild-to-moderate ulcerative colitis.
Pediatric Ulcerative Colitis (UC) patients with moderate to severe disease activity at high risk of colectomy. Early use of biologic agents will likely be more effective. But there were no studies identified that compared a strategy of upfront biologic-based therapy versus gradual step-up therapy. In our study, newly diagnosed moderate to severe pediatric UC patients (6-18 years old) will be randomly divided into infliximab (IFX) treatment group (Top down group, TD) and corticosteroids (CS) treatment group (Step-up group, SU). Mucosal healing rate at week 12 will be compared between the two groups. The relapse rates and sustained durations of remission within one year will also be evaluated.
The study is aim to detect common microbial profiles and metabolic pathways throughout IBD diagnosis and treatment with biological therapy.
The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of efavaleukin alfa on induction of clinical remission in participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC). Participants will be randomized to receive 1 of 3 efavaleukin alfa doses or placebo during a 12-week induction period. Participants who complete the 12-week induction period will have the option to enter an exploratory long-term treatment period for up to 40 weeks (total of up to 52 weeks of treatment) if, in the opinion of the investigator, they may benefit from continued treatment. During the long-term period, participants randomized to efavaleukin alfa will remain on the same efavaleukin alfa blinded dose; participants randomized to placebo who achieved clinical response at week 12 will remain on placebo; and placebo non-responders (ie, participants randomized to placebo who did not achieve clinical response at week 12) will receive efavaleukin alfa in a blinded manner during continued treatment. All participants will complete a safety follow-up visit 6 weeks after their last dose of investigational product.
PURPOSE: The main purpose is to explore clinical efficacy and safety associated with capsule FMT (cFMT) performed in newly diagnosed, untreated patients with rheumatic and gastrointestinal chronic inflammatory diseases (CIDs). DESIGN AND METHODS: In this 1:1 double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomised, 12-month exploratory trial, 200 patients with at least one of 6 different diagnoses of CIDs fulfilling the study criteria will be enrolled at time of diagnosis. The patient groups are: rheumatoid arthritis (RA), ankylosing spondylitis (AS), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), pulmonary sarcoidosis (PSar), Crohn's disease (CD), and ulcerative colitis (UC). The primary endpoint is change from baseline to eight weeks in the physical component summary (PCS) of the short form health survey (SF-36). Key secondary clinical endpoints will be evaluated at 8 weeks. Other secondary clinical endpoints will be evaluated at 52 weeks and reported in secondary papers. The baseline visit will be performed as quickly as possible after the patient's informed consent has been obtained to ensure no unnecessary treatment delay. Stratified by CID diagnosis, patients will be randomised (1:1) to either placebo or single-donor cFMT processed from stool provided to the hospital from anonymous-to-the-patient healthy donors. The experimental intervention FMT/placebo will be repeated once weekly the first month (i.e., each patient will receive a total of four treatments). In addition, all participants will concomitantly be offered the national guideline first-line anti-inflammatory treatment following the baseline visit. At baseline, 8 weeks, 26 weeks, and 52 weeks a thorough clinical examination will be conducted and all relevant clinical scores for each disease entity will be registered. Patient-reported-outcomes including SF-36 and disease specific questionnaires will be collected at week 1, 2, 3, 4, 8 (primary endpoint evaluation), 26 and 52. Adverse events will be monitored through out the trial.
New types of biologics have brought advantages in therapy strategies for Crohn's disease. However, clinical data evaluating their efficacy and adverse in China is lacking. We aimed to evaluate the short-term and long-term therapeutic effect as well as drug adverse of Ustekinumab (UST) and Vedolizumab (VED). Besides, we aim to figure out the independent factors predicting the effectiveness of new biologics. Relations between drug exposure (trough concentration and antibody concentration) and therapeutic efficacy are study in-depth by this retrospective observational study.
The inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), are characterized by lifelong relapsing-remitting gastrointestinal inflammation, with symptoms of abdominal pain, diarrhea, and rectal bleeding during active disease. Medical therapy reduces intestinal inflammation and ameliorates symptoms. Clinical remission is defined when symptoms are resolved. In these periods, patients are able to perform daily activities more freely and lead a normal lifestyle. Biochemical remission (normalization of CRP and fecal Calprotectin) and endoscopic remission (no visual signs of inflammation of the mucosa in endoscopy) are the goals of IBD treatment. Unfortunately, 30-40% of patients will relapse during 6 months from achieving remission. Risk factors for disease exacerbation are still unknown, and no guidelines exist as to the prevention of relapse and maintenance of remission in IBD patients. In addition to the above, sleep disturbances and disturbances in the circadian rhythm can be a potential cause of flare-up. Sleep disorders cause changes in immune function, which later affect the course of the disease in IBD. This back affects the sleep pattern, so that a cycle is created, which may perpetuate the inflammation. The interactions between sleep and inflammation are complex. An effective immune system affects sleep, and sleep disorders affect the functioning of the immune system. Furthermore, changes in the biological clock and sleep deprivation have been directly shown to worsen ulcerative colitis in laboratory animals. In people with sleep disorders, high levels of inflammation were found. However, it is difficult to dissect the cause and effect for these associations, given their complex interactions. Therefore we are planning to conduct a prospective study to assess variety of factors that might be associated with the activity of IBD.
This is a small pilot study of the fermented soybean extract MicrSoy-20(MS-20) to confirm its ability to improve UC severity with the treatment of standard therapies. The primary endpoint, structural alteration of gut microbiota during the trial will be analyzed. Secondary endpoints aim to observe the changes of partial Mayo score, patient response of medication of UC treatments, biomarker changes in blood, and safety after taking MS-20.
