Filter by:This is a randomized, controlled study evaluating diosmin tablets administered daily for 3 months. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of diosmin in the treatment of mild to moderately active ulcerative colitis. Disease activity will be measured using modified truelove and witt's classification.
The primary reason of this study is to observe current and past treatment in adult participants receiving Vedolizumab, intravenous (IV) or subcutaneous (SC), for IBD in Brazil. There is no treatment involved in this study, this is only an observational review of past and ongoing treatment data relating to Vedolizumab treatment for IBD (including Ulcerative Colitis [UC] and Crohn's Disease [CD]).
This study aims to examine patient tolerability of personalized dietary fibre consumption recommendations (high-pectin diet versus high-B-fructan diet based on personalized responses), provided by an IBD dietician, based on our novel translational research findings.
A prospective, longitudinal, multicentre, observational cohort follow-up study conducted in France.
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn's disease (CD) and Ulcerative colitis (UC), is a chronic idiopathic inflammatory condition of the intestine. Endoscopy has been used to monitor the disease, but it is time-consuming, costly, invasive, and associated with certain risks of morbidity. Many patients are reluctant to undergo repeated endoscopic examinations, particularly when their disease is quiescent. Acute phase reactants have been used to monitor disease including C-reactive protein and stool leucocyte markers including fecal calprotectin, but their sensitivity and specificity in correlating to intestinal inflammation activity are low. Clinical challenge of patient heterogeneity in disease phenotype and response to therapy has compounded discovery of disease-related biomarkers. In IBD, altered fecal microbiota signatures have been consistently reported which included a reduction in biodiversity with lower proportions of Firmicutes and increases in Proteobacteria and Bacteroidetes phylum members. Moreover, overall bacterial diversity is consistently decreased in IBD patients compared to controls. Even though a number of fecal biomarkers have been evaluated for their utility for disease diagnosis in IBD, to date none has been accurate enough for clinical application. Therefore, identification and validation of a non-invasive biomarker which can be easily applied in disease diagnosis and prognosis is warranted to provide an earlier opportunity to intervene. In this study, it aims to develop a metagenomics-based model using fecal microbial biomarkers for differentiating IBD patients from healthy controls, and then validate these fecal microbial biomarkers in different populations.
This study will examine whether delivery of high dose steroids, directly into the inflamed bowel via its arterial blood supply, will be better for treating uncontrolled flares of inflammatory bowel disease in patients compared to conventional intra-venous or oral administration of this drug. Patients aged 4-25 years of age will be recruited. In this study, we hope to also learn how this directed steroid delivery during an active flare will improve patient symptoms as well as the appearance of inflamed segments of bowel determined by imaging or biopsy (i.e. at the time of endoscopy). Additional data will determine how the blood vessels in the bowel affect, and potentially even drive the mechanisms, of inflammatory bowel disease.
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. Medical cannabis has recently been added to the arsenal of symptom-reducing measures in IBD. Though the efficacy of THC and CBD have been established as the two most dominant ingredients of cannabis, the rest of the plant phytochemicals are unknown, and effects on patients are not yet determined.
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a type of inflammatory bowel disease that causes inflammation and bleeding from the lining of the rectum and colon (large intestine). This study will assess how safe and effective ABBV-668 is in treating adult participants with UC. Adverse events and change in disease activity will be assessed. ABBV-668 is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of moderate to severe UC. Approximately 40 adult participants diagnosed with UC will be enrolled in approximately 30 sites globally. Participants will receive oral capsules of ABBV-668 twice daily for 52-weeks and will undergo a 30 day follow-up period. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.
This is a randomized, double-blind pilot study of Nicotinamide Riboside (NR) in Pediatric-onset Ulcerative Colitis (UC).
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic immune-related disease, which mainly affects the digestive tract. There are mainly two forms of the disease, including Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). Biologics have revolutionized the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease with good efficacy and safety. However, 20-50% of patients may not response to or lose response to biologics. Unfortunately, there has been no factors or measures that may predict the efficacy or safety of biologics. In this study, a large prospective cohort study is conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of biologics (infliximab, adalimumab, vedolizumab, ustekinumab, and other approved biologics) in patients with inflammatory bowel disease in the real clinical practice. Meanwhile, a multi-omics approach involving transcriptomics, microbiome, proteomics, and metabolome, are adopted to explore biomarkers or factors that predict the therapeutic efficacy or safety of biologics. The mechanism underlie the disease will also be explored.
