Filter by:The aim of the trial is to test safety, tolerability and efficacy of Propionyl-L-carnitine modified release tablets 1g/die in reducing the symptoms of the disease with respect to the proportion of patients with disease remission at the end of the 8 weeks of treatment. It will also aim to investigate capability of the treatment in the maintenance of remission after four weeks of treatment interruption; histological changes will be also evaluated and finally, improvement in the overall quality of life as measured by the Short Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (SIBDQ)will be investigated.
This study is designed as a proof of concept of KRP203 for induction of remission in ulcerative colitis (UC). The purpose of this study is to evaluate clinical benefit of KRP203 in subjects with moderately active refractory ulcerative colitis. The study will provide safety and tolerability data in this subject population up to eight weeks of treatment with KRP203. Additionally, this study will evaluate the duration of a clinical response to KRP203 by following up responding subjects for an additional 12 weeks.
To assess the safety and tolerability of single subcutaneous (SC) and intravenous (IV) doses of AMG 181 in healthy subjects and of a single SC dose in subjects with mild to moderate ulcerative colitis (UC)
Primary Objective Safety: assess the safety of basiliximab 40 mg, given every 4 weeks, in subjects with ulcerative colitis who completed previous basiliximab studies. Secondary Objectives: evaluate the efficacy and assess the immunogenicity of this multiple-dose maintenance regimen in this population
The purpose of this study is to determine whether low dose Asacol® (27 mg/kg - 71 mg/kg) and high dose Asacol® (53 mg/kg - 118 mg/kg) are safe and effective when dosed as 400 mg delayed-release tablets given twice daily for 26 weeks to children and adolescents for the maintenance of remission of ulcerative colitis.
This will be a prospective, multi-center, randomized, single blind study to collect and evaluate post-market clinical data on the SprayShield Adhesion Barrier System as an adjuvant to good surgical technique for the reduction of postoperative adhesion formation following major open abdominal surgery.
The purpose of this study is to provide data correlating levels of microparticles that circulate in the blood and disease activity in children with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The hypothesis is that circulating microparticles will be higher in children with active IBD, show inflammatory activity, and will be low in patients in remission as well as in healthy controls.
The primary purpose of this study is to pilot test an instrument that the investigators will develop to assess decision influences on inflammatory bowel disease patients' medication adherence decision-making. This pilot study will use an exploratory, descriptive cross-sectional survey approach to pilot test the instrument and answer the research questions. The main hypothesis is that patients at risk for intentionally modifying their prescribed medication regimen will differ on influences on decision-making, health status, and utilization of the IBD clinic services compared to those who are intentionally adherent and who continue adherence over time.
This is a prospective, randomized, double-blind, sham treatment controlled multicenter study.
The dimension of diagnostic procedures and therapy of chronic inflammatory bowel diseases largely depends on the degree of mucosal inflammation. Video colonoscopy is currently the gold standard in the evaluation of the mucosa in patients with Ulcerative Colitis (UC). PillCam Colon Capsule was developed by Given Imaging, Israel, as possible alternative imaging modality to evaluate mucosal changes in patients with UC. The colonic mucosa can be visualized and recorded by video while the colon capsule passes the colon. Many patients suffering from UC ask their physician for possible alternative diagnostic imaging because they are uncomfortable with conventional colonoscopy. The primary aim of the present study is to compare the new Pillcam Colon Capsule with standard colonoscopy with respect to assessing mucosal disease activity and localization of inflamed colonic mucosa in patients with known UC.
