NCT07539077
The medical management of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) has evolved over the years thanks to the newly available therapies and the biochemical and endoscopic monitoring of the disease. Several in-remission IBD patients still complain of gastrointestinal symptoms, suggesting a possible overlap between IBD and Disorders of Gut-Brain-Interaction (DGBIs), classified and diagnosed according to the Rome IV criteria, with a worldwide prevalence of about 40% in the general population. In adult patients with in-remission IBD, the prevalence of any DGBI has been reported to reach up to 41%, resulting in significantly higher rates in Crohn's disease (CD) than in ulcerative colitis (UC). Regarding the pediatric population, according to a meta-analysis conducted in 2015, the worldwide prevalence of functional abdominal pain disorders (FAPDs), a subtype of DGBIs including functional dyspepsia, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), abdominal migraine, and functional abdominal pain not otherwise specified (FAP-NOS), in children is about 13.5%, with IBS reported as the most frequent disorder (8.8%). Only a few studies were conducted on pediatric patients to investigate the association between IBD and DGBIs. A meta-analysis conducted in 2022 reported an overall prevalence of FAPDs ranging between 9.6% and 29.5% in children with in-remission IBD, with the overall prevalence of IBS in these patients ranging between 3.9% and 16.1%. Therefore, despite the differences in criteria used to define quiescent IBD in the included studies, an increased overall prevalence of IBS and FAPDs in children with IBD was described. Nevertheless, none used the current Rome IV criteria to diagnose DGBIs, and only the prevalence of IBS and FAPDs was analyzed. The primary aim of our study was to assess the prevalence of commonly reported DGBIs (Functional nausea and vomiting disorders, Functional abdominal pain disorders, Functional defecation disorders) in pediatric patients with quiescent IBD, compared to a control group of healthy children. Secondly, we aimed to investigate the presence of any other factors associated with the presence of DGBIs in our population, regardless of the IBD status.
NCT01765439
The aim of the study is to determine, whether administration of VSL#3 (Original De Simone formulation) probiotic preparation can alter the bile acid metabolism in patients with inflammatory bowel disease.
NCT07344428
Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease with high recurrence and surgical rates. Mucosal healing is a key therapeutic goal, yet current anti-TNF-α biologics achieve only about 30% mucosal healing. Dietary intervention, particularly the Crohn's Disease Exclusion Diet (CDED), shows promise in CD management. Preliminary data suggest that combining CDED with anti-TNF-α biologics may significantly improve mucosal healing rates (42.9% vs 25%). This single-center, prospective, randomized, controlled trial will enroll 185 adult CD patients with active disease (SES-CD ≥3), randomly assigned 1:1 to receive either anti-TNF-α biologics plus CDED or anti-TNF-α biologics alone. The primary endpoint is mucosal healing rate at week 14 (SES-CD=0). Secondary endpoints include clinical remission, endoscopic response, transmural healing, and adverse events. This study aims to provide high-quality evidence for the efficacy and safety of this combined approach in Chinese CD patients.
NCT07352995
The goal of this clinical trial is to use a modified thermal probe to measure temperature rise in the colonic mucosa of participants with inflammatory bowel disease, Crohn's disease, and/or ulcerative colitis. The main question it aims to answer is: Is the thermal probe an effective device to use to detect temperature rise in the colonic mucosa? During the participant's standard of care colonoscopy, the thermal probe will be inserted into the colonoscope. The thermal probe is connected to a temperature transmitter that collects and saves the temperature of the colon in real time.
NCT05627128
The goal of the study is to test the efficacy of a dietary intervention in inducing clinical response and remission for patients with Crohn's disease in a randomized controlled trial. The intervention diet: DAIN has been adapted from the Inflammatory Bowel Disease Anti-Inflammatory Diet or IBD-AID™ taking into account the food availability and preferences of Puerto Ricans. DAIN also includes traditional foods commonly consumed in the typical Puerto Rican diet while maintaining the fundamental components of the IBD-AID™.

NCT05421455
The management of stricturing Crohn's disease (CD) remains challenging. Although surgical resection may be the final way to solve it, the efficacy of biologics for symptomatic CD associated strictures was acceptable. In clinical practice, the chioce of treatment is particularly difficult. Therefore, a clinical trial of biologics versus surgery is needed to assess which one is prefered.
NCT06450197
This is a randomised, double-blind, parallel group, placebo-controlled Phase IIa study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AZD7798 in participants with moderate to severe Crohn's disease.
NCT07385807
The goal of this prospective longitudinal cohort study is to examine how the human microbiome of pregnant women-including bacteria and fungi in the gastrointestinal tract, vaginal canal, skin, and breastmilk-may influence infant gut inflammation, measured by fecal calprotectin (FCP) levels, and to identify factors that could inform dietary interventions to improve infant health outcomes. Specifically, the study aims to determine which maternal gut microbiome characteristics and dietary patterns during pregnancy are associated with elevated FCP levels in infants, and which infant gut microbiota compositions and dietary factors are linked to high FCP levels. Researchers will compare microbiome signatures and dietary factors in pregnant women and their infants with active or inactive IBD, as well as non-IBD controls, to identify microbial patterns that may predict infant gut inflammation. Participants will provide fecal samples at all study timepoints, one vaginal swab during the third trimester of pregnancy, and optional breastmilk and breast skin swab samples. They will also complete 3-day diet recalls using a smartphone app and participate in a longitudinal follow-up over 12 months after birth to monitor dietary patterns, microbiome profiles, and gut inflammation in both mother and infant.
NCT07495800
Primary Objective To determine the pattern of weight and body mass index (BMI) changes in biologic-treated patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Secondary Objectives To evaluate the correlation between BMI and biologic drug dosing. To estimate the direct financial burden of biologic therapy according to BMI categories. To assess whether higher BMI is associated with increased treatment requirements.
NCT05211518
The goal of this study is to explore in a cross over randomized controlled trial, the ability of the Tasty\&Healthy dietary intervention (NCT04239248) to alter the parameters associated with future risk of developing Chron's disease (CD) using First Degree Relatives of patients with Crohn's disease, including subjects identified in the Genetic Environmental Microbiome (GEM) Study as having a high-risk score. Specifically, the investigators aim to determine if the Tasty\&Healthy dietary intervention can decrease the overall GEM Risk Score (GRS) and/or to alter the individual biological parameters that contribute to this score. The investigators hypothesize that the Tasty\&Healthy dietary approach will alter the risk of CD as reflected by a decrease in the GRS.
NCT06591013
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), affects over 2 million people worldwide . Although biological therapies have significantly improved the treatment outcomes for UC, nearly two-thirds of patients experience diminishing drug responses over time, making it crucial to explore novel therapeutic approaches targeting the underlying pathophysiology of UC. UC is associated with alterations in gut microbiota, reduced microbial diversity, and changes in the relative abundance of dominant bacterial populations. Specifically, UC patients exhibit a marked decrease in gut microbiota diversity at the species level, with a reduction in Firmicutes (e.g., Clostridium butyricum) and an increase in Actinobacteria, Proteobacteria (e.g., Escherichia coli), Enterobacteriaceae, Streptococcus, and Bacteroides . Given the association between gut microbiota alterations and IBD activity, several studies have proposed microbiota-based therapies, particularly fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT), as a treatment for UC.
NCT07089771
People with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), such as ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease affecting the colon, have a higher risk of developing colon cancer over time. To catch early signs of cancer, regular colonoscopies are recommended. In this study, the investigators are comparing two advanced methods of examining the colon during these surveillance colonoscopies. One method uses a special dye sprayed inside the colon to highlight abnormal areas (called dye-based chromoendoscopy). The other method uses new technology built into the camera to enhance the view without needing any dye (called virtual chromoendoscopy). Both methods use modern, high-definition equipment. The purpose of this study is to find out if the newer, dye-free method is as good as the traditional dye method at detecting pre-cancerous changes (called dysplasia) in people with IBD. Adults with IBD who are due for a routine surveillance colonoscopy may be invited to take part. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the two methods. No additional procedures are involved, and only the way the colon is viewed differs. The investigators will also look at how long the procedures take, how many biopsies are needed, any complications, and how patients experience the exam. Participants will be followed over time using national health records to check for long-term outcomes. This research will help doctors better understand which method is most effective and comfortable for patients, and may guide future recommendations for cancer screening in people with IBD.
NCT06226883
This is a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 3 active dose regimens of MORF-057 in adult study participants with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease (CD).
NCT07298421
This phase III, double-blind, multi-center treat-through study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of Afimkibart (also known as RO7790121) in children with moderately to severely active Crohn's Disease (CD).
NCT03369353
The goal of the Precision Diagnosis in Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Cellular Therapies, and Transplantation (PREDICT) trial is to apply a systems-biology approach to enable precision diagnostics for the key immunologic outcomes for patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Cellular Therapeutics and Transplantation. This approach will deepen the understanding of the molecular mechanisms driving auto- and allo-immune diseases and serve as a critical platform upon which to design evidence-based treatment paradigms for these patients. This research study will examine the immunology of auto- and allo-immune gastrointestinal disturbances such as Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), Graft-versus-Host Disease (GVHD), and Functional Gastrointestinal Disorder (FGID), as well as the immune manifestations after CAR-T and other cellular therapeutics. The Investigators seek to use blood and tissue samples in order to better understand the mechanisms driving these diseases and their therapies. The Investigators further hypothesize that longitudinal systems-based immunologic analysis will enable the patient-specific determination of the molecular evolution of IBD, GVHD and the response to cellular therapeutics, as well post-transplant defects in protective immunity, and determine which pathways, when perturbed, can cause clinical disease. The discovery of these pathways will lead to improved diagnostic, prognostic and treatment approaches, and to personalized therapeutic decision-making for these patients.
NCT03196427
