Filter by:The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of GLPG3970 compared to placebo on the signs and symptoms of Ulcerative Colitis (UC) in participants with moderately to severely active UC.
All episodes of patients with acute UC admitted to Tampere University Hospital and treated with intravenous corticosteroids between January 2007 and January 2016 were identified from patient records and reviewed. The risks for colectomy and for continuous use of corticosteroids were evaluated. Predictive factors were analysed.
This exploratory, open-label clinical study aims to explore the effects of KB295, a novel glycan, on adult patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) presenting with mild-to-moderate UC symptoms
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a diet intervention (the Fasting Mimicking diet) will help induce clinical and biochemical response to tofacitinib therapy or second line biologic therapy with ustekinumab or infliximab in patients with ulcerative colitis. Study period will be 8 weeks during induction of tofacitinib or ustekinumab or infliximab. The primary aims of this study are to determine clinical response and improvement in fecal calprotectin and C-reactive protein levels. Secondary outcomes will include assessment of changes in the stool microbiome.
The prevalence of ulcerative colitis (UC), which is one of the inflammatory bowel diseases, is known to be increasing and the majority of patients (≥ 85%) have experienced mild or moderate severity. 5-Aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA), immunomodulator, or biologics, etc are prescribed to treat UC, however 5-ASA is generally considered the first-line therapy. The recent UC treatment guideline in Korea and the United States/ European Union (US/EU) have recommended higher daily dose for patients with mild or moderate severity than the previous guidelines since 2017. Accordingly, it is assumed that the average daily treatment dose of 5-ASA would increase in patients who were initially diagnosed with UC in real-world clinical practice in Korea. However, there are not many studies evaluating the treatment patterns and health outcomes of 5-ASA based on the recent treatment guideline in South Korea. This study, hence, aims to investigate the impact of changes in daily dose of 5-ASA on the treatment patterns and health outcomes such as recurrence rate, hospitalization rate, and surgery rate in real world practice using Health Insurance Review and Assessment (HIRA) claims database.
A)Background: Approximately 44% of patients with Inflammatory bowel disease have Ulcerative colitis(UC) which is a lifelong, chronic disease, starting in early adulthood, where the colon becomes inflamed and ulcerated due to a complex interaction between genetics, altered immune function, and environmental factors2such as dietary intake. While the etiology of UC is not clear, it is hypothesized the abnormal immune response and chronic inflammation may be caused by dysbiosis of the intestinal microbiota and decreased epithelial barrier function. Substantial evidence suggests that higher than normal levels of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) in the colon plays a role in the etiology of UC. The higher levels of H2S and sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) found in the feces of patients with UC is likely caused by the reduced conversion of H2S to thiosulfate by rhodanese (thiosulfate transferase enzyme)12, and increased colonization or activity of SRB. For example, SRB has been identified as the predominant bacterial group in patients with UC compared to the minority group in healthy individuals, and SRB growth is stimulated by the presence of sulfur-rich amino acids. Dietary intervention may help to repair the dysbiosis existing in the microbiome of the patient with UC, but research about food and recurrence of UC is conflicting. Dietary components such as sulfur and sulfates also appear to play a role in the recurrence of UC; although a recent review of the relationship between sulfur-containing foods and UC calls for more randomized controlled trials (RCTs) examining a reduced sulfur diet in UC. With the body of evidence described above, there is a compelling reason to consider that sulfur and sulfate-containing foods contribute to developing severe UC. Thus, understanding how dietary modulation of sulfur intake within the context of UC impacts disease status is the focus of this proposal.
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, ascending dose, multi-cohort study. The study will be conducted in 2 parts: a single ascending dose (SAD) part (Part A) followed by a multiple ascending dose (MAD) part (Part B). The decision to escalate between dose levels and proceed to Part B will be based upon review of blinded available safety data by a Safety Review Committee.
This is a 2-arm randomized trial aimed at leveraging behavioral science principles to improve patient engagement between office visits among patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
To compare the pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and safety/tolerability of LC51-0255 film-coated tablet (SG85) with LC51-0255 uncoated tablet (SG82) in healthy subjects.
Aims:Retrospectively observe the effects of Caltrate supplementation on the clinical effect of mesalazine in patients with ulcerative colitis. Design: From January 2015 to December 2020, through retrieving the clinical database of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University, patients with active UC who accepted mesalazine treatment were enrolled. According to whether Caltrate was supplemented at the same time, the patients were divided into supplementary group and non-supplementary group. The modified Mayo score and several laboratory indicators were compared between the two groups.
