Filter by:This is a post-marketing observational study of patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (specifically, Crohn's disease or Ulcerative Colitis) who have been prescribed CT-P13 (infliximab) or Remicade (infliximab) for treatment. CT-P13 (brand names Inflectra and Remsima) is a biosimilar medicine to Remicade, meaning it is a biologic medicine that contains the same active substance as Remicade (infliximab). The key study objectives are as follows: - To characterize the population and drug utilization patterns of patients treated with CT-P13 for Crohn's Disease (CD) or Ulcerative Colitis (UC) in the context of standard of care Remicade - To explore the long-term safety profile of CT-P13 in the treatment of patients with CD or UC in the context of standard of care Remicade - To assess the effectiveness of CT-P13 in the treatment of patients with CD or UC in the context of standard of care Remicade
The purpose of this study is to determine whether etrasimod (APD334) is a safe and effective treatment for ulcerative colitis after 52 weeks of treatment.
The purpose of this trial was to investigate the safety and efficacy of mesalamine 2 g extended release granules (sachet) once a day (QD) for maintenance of clinical and endoscopic remission in subjects with UC. The duration of treatment for each subject was 6 months.
The purpose of this trial is to investigate the efficacy of mesalamine for the induction of clinical and endoscopic remission in subjects with active, mild to moderate UC. Subject will receive 4 g extended release granules (sachet) once daily.
Inflammatory bowel disease is a condition caused by gastrointestinal immune system dysregulation and affected by both genetic and environmental factors. Differences in intestinal bacteria exist between IBD patients and healthy controls, but the role of intestinal bacteria in the development and treatment of IBD remains largely unknown. Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) is the transfer of gastrointestinal bacteria from a healthy donor to a patient with altered microbial diversity with the intent of restoring a normal bacterial balance. Most studies focus on its use in treating Clostridium difficile (CDI), an infection characterized by dysbiosis. Given the role of dysbiosis in IBD, the investigators hypothesize that FMT may be beneficial in IBD. The purpose of this study is to prospectively examine the safety of FMT in the management of ulcerative colitis (UC).
Since their appearance more than a decade ago, anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors have demonstrated beneficial activity in the treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). However, more than one-third of patients present primary resistance, and one more third become resistant over time. One of the main factors associated with loss of response is the immunogenicity of anti-TNF biologics leading to the production of antibodies targetting the TNF inhibitor, namely anti-drug antibodies (ADAbs), that accelerate drug elimination from the serum and decrease its therapeutic activity. In this study the investigators propose a medico-economic evaluation of the measurement of anti-TNF agents and anti-drug antibodies serum concentrations in the management of patients with inflammatory bowel disease treated with anti-TNFalpha inhibitors. 280 patients with Crohn's disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC) will be included and randomized in 2 groups with or without drug and ADAbs monitoring. In the monitored group, in case of loss of response, the clinician will use biological informations to adapt the treatment following a simple treatment algorithm. In the unmonitored group, drug and ADAbs measurements will not be transmitted to the clinician. Clinical and economical benefits of the biological monitoring will be evaluated after a follow-up period of two years.
To evaluate the real-life effect after 1 year of adalimumab treatment on psychological distress/depression symptoms in moderate-to-severe Ulcerative Colitis (UC) patients.
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.
Prognostic factors in Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD) are currently mainly based on clinical factors (disease extension, perianal involvement, need for surgery, use of immunomodulators…). All of immunological markers (or serological) of IBD have a diagnostic role in indeterminate colitis (ulcerative colitis vs crohn's disease) but they never have been considered as predictors of IBD course in adults. Among the most used, anti-neutrophil cytoplasm antibodies (ANCA) and Anti-Saccaromyces cerevisiae antibodies (ASCA) allow the distinction between ulcerative colitis (ANCA+/ASCA-) and Crohn's disease (ANCA-/ASCA+), and their combined use has a sensitivity and a specificity of about 85%. However, 10 other antibodies have been identified and recently evaluated individually in IBD and especially in pediatric Crohn's disease: anti-ompC, anti-I2, anti-flagellins, anti-glycan (anti-laminaribioside carbohydrate antibodies (ALCA), anti-mannobioside carbohydrate antibodies (AMCA), anti-chitobioside carbohydrate antibody (ACCA), anti-chitin and anti-laminarin), anti-goblet cells and anti-C.albicans specific mannans antibodies. These complementary tests improve the reliability of the diagnosis. In a previous cross-sectional work on a cohort of 195 IBD patients, the investigator showed a prognostic role of some of anti-glycan Abs and especially a correlation with a pejorative form of the disease both in Crohn's disease than in Ulcerative Colitis (UC) and a prediction of corticodependency in IBD.
This is a prospective, single country, multi-center study in participants with ulcerative colitis (UC) treated with adalimumab. Up to 147 participants are enrolled at approximately 20 sites. The baseline assessment is performed prior to the first dose of adalimumab (Visit 1). Study visits are conducted at weeks 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48 and 56 after baseline in accordance with clinical practice. All participants will have one Follow-up for safety approximately 70 days after the last dose of adalimumab.
