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.

NCT05199532
The purpose of this study is to learn more about Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Disorders (EGIDs). With this registry we hope to find out more about the symptoms that patients have during their treatment, the quality of life they have with the diagnosis, what the disease looks like throughout the different treatment methods, and if there is a connection between EGIDs and connective tissue disorders. The goal of this study is to be able to better understand EGIDs and use information gained from all the information collected on this study for more precise treatments in the future. We want to create a large collection of samples, called a biorepository, to learn the most about EGIDs as possible. When the samples are collected, which will occur at procedures directed by your child's doctor as part of their standard of care, they will be stored for an unlimited amount of time to perform experiments on these samples and to gather information about EGIDs
NCT07472309
The aim of this retrospective observational study is to investigate and compare the real-world effectiveness and safety of upadacitinib when used as first-line exposure versus rescue exposure in patients with acute severe ulcerative colitis (ASUC). The key questions to be addressed are: In patients with ASUC, does upadacitinib administered as first-line induction exposure result in higher rates of colectomy-free survival, clinical remission, and endoscopic healing compared with its use as rescue exposure following failure of conventional or biologic therapies? What are the differences in the incidence, type, and severity of adverse events between these two real-world treatment exposure patterns? The researchers will conduct a retrospective analysis of medical records and electronic health data from patients diagnosed with ASUC who received upadacitinib either as part of routine first-line clinical care or routine rescue clinical care. All treatment decisions were made by treating clinicians per standard of care; the investigator did not assign or modify any therapeutic interventions. Data will be collected during a defined follow-up period to compare the real-world effectiveness and safety profiles of the two treatment exposure strategies.
NCT05892159

Ozanimod will be administered orally to pediatric participants with moderate to severe active ulcerative colitis (UC) who have had an inadequate response to conventional therapy.
NCT03724175
The cause of Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is unknown, but intestinal bacteria-involved in the production of molecules that impact health-are widely accepted to play a key role. A significant proportion of IBD patients with pouches (surgically created rectums after the diseased colon is removed) continue to have inflammation similar to their previous disease. Only a few microbes are known to have the capability to modify primary bile acids (PBAs) made by the liver to secondary bile acids (SBAs). SBAs are some of the most common metabolites in the colon and play key roles in several diseases. In this study the investigators will investigate if ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) may reduce inflammatory markers and improve quality of life (as assessed by validate survey) in those subjects with active antibiotic refractory or antibiotic dependent pouchitis.

NCT07433946
This is a multicenter, open-label, randomized two-arm interventional nutritional study evaluating the effects of partial enteral nutrition (LH VIOLA) in patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) at risk of malnutrition. A total of 146 patients (73 per arm) will be enrolled across 4 centers. IBD, including Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis, is associated with malabsorption, weight loss, sarcopenia, and malnutrition, which negatively impact quality of life and treatment outcomes. Nutritional assessment using the Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool (MUST) will identify patients at risk. Participants will be randomized to receive either nutritional counseling alone or counseling plus oral LH VIOLA supplementation (≥412 kcal/day) for 16 weeks. The primary objective is to evaluate maintenance or recovery of body weight at 16 weeks. Secondary objectives include assessment of weight at 24 weeks, muscle strength (handgrip), body composition and metabolic parameters (BIA/BIVA, vitamin B12/D, pre-albumin), quality of life (SF-12), economic impact, adherence, gastrointestinal tolerability, and reduction in malnutrition risk (MUST score). The study duration per patient is 24 weeks (16 weeks of intervention plus 8 weeks follow-up), with a total study duration of 18 months. The sample size is powered to detect an increase from 40% to 65% in patients achieving weight maintenance or gain at 16 weeks, accounting for a 15% dropout rate.
NCT05626088
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 \[CD\]).
NCT07045844
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether supplementing with pasteurized donor human milk (pHDM) or preterm formula (PTF) when own mother's milk (OMM) is insufficient can improve outcomes in very preterm infants born before 29 weeks of gestation. It also aims to assess whether routine use of human milk fortifiers benefits this population. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does supplementing OMM with pHDM or PTF improve survival without surgery-requiring necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) by 34 weeks corrected gestational age? Is routine fortification of human milk better than selective fortification based on growth faltering? Researchers will compare: pHDM vs. PTF to see which better supports survival without severe NEC. Routine fortification vs. selective fortification to assess the impact on growth and long-term neurodevelopment. Participants will: Be randomized twice: * First, within the first week of life to receive either pHDM or PTF when OMM is insufficient * Second, in the second week of life to receive either routine fortification or selective fortification only if growth faltering occurs Receive feeding and care as per standard clinical practice Complete neurodevelopmental assessment at 2 years corrected age using the PARCA-R tool (no additional study visits required) This multicenter, double-randomized, open-label randomized controlled trial is embedded in routine neonatal care and uses real-world data to assess both short- and long-term outcomes. COLLABORATE-China is being run in partnership with the UK-wide COLLABORATE trial sponsored by Imperial College London.
NCT05316584
The investigators hypothesize that use of a remote monitoring digital health system that supports medication taking and monitoring of symptoms will improve adherence, clinical outcomes, and decrease healthcare utilization compared to standard care in participants with inflammatory bowel disease initiating oral or subcutaneous treatment. The investigators are conducting a 12-month, multicenter, randomized, controlled trial to assess the feasibility and effectiveness of a remote monitoring digital health system on adherence, clinical outcomes, and healthcare utilization. The investigators will address the following specific aims: 1. Compare adherence as measured by the medication possession ratio in participants using a remote monitoring digital health system compared to standard of care. 2. Compare clinical outcomes and healthcare utilization in participants using a remote monitoring digital health system compared to standard of care.
NCT07123350
The goal of this retrospective study is to learn about dosing patterns in patients starting subcutaneous vedolizumab administration and patient outcomes after starting subcutaneous administration. Patients with IBD who are starting subcutaneous vedolizumab administration between September 1, 2023, and March 31, 2025, as part of normal patient care, will be retrospectively reviewed and analyzed.
NCT07245394
The SHIFT-IBD Study is being conducted at multiple medical centers across Canada to evaluate how well guselkumab (Tremfya) works for people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) who haven't responded well enough to ustekinumab. Patients will begin guselkumab based on their doctor's decision. If eligible, they may be invited to participate in the study, which involves monitoring symptoms, test results, and overall health over the course of one year. Guselkumab will be given according to local medical guidelines. Doctors can adjust the treatment as needed, just like in routine care. Researchers believe that switching to guselkumab may be as effective as other advanced treatments. For those who saw some improvement on ustekinumab but not enough, guselkumab may offer better symptom control-without worsening results on medical tests like endoscopy. The goal is to explore better treatment options for people whose IBD has not been well controlled with current therapies.
NCT06050811
The community of microbes living in the gut is called the 'gut microbiome'. Changing this could be an exciting new way of treating people living with ulcerative colitis (UC). UC is a type of inflammatory bowel disease. It affects 4 in every 1000 people in the UK. UC causes severe episodes of inflammation leading to bloody diarrhoea. The gut microbes of people living with UC are different to those in healthy people. This may be part of the reason people with UC have a more inflamed gut. Prebiotics are types of fibre in the diet which help feed the positive microbes in the colon. Eating them can change the make-up and activity of the bugs which live in our gut in a good way. The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effect of a type of prebiotic called a human milk oligosaccharide (HMO) on the symptoms of patients with UC. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Can a prebiotic improve symptoms for patients living with UC? * Can a prebiotic improve the gut microbiota of people living with UC, and improve markers of inflammation, metabolism and immune function? Patients will take a sachet containing either the prebiotic or a placebo for four weeks, then swap to the other sachet. The trial will be double-blind and randomised. This 'crossover' design means patients act as their own control, which is important in gut microbiology studies. The prebiotic's effect on patient symptoms, metabolism and immune system will be measured. The investigators plan to recruit 44 participants over 18 months. Their urine, blood and stool will be tested. This project will be the first 'bench to bedside' study into the use of prebiotics in IBD. The treatment in this project is rooted in gut model studies. Different prebiotics were tested in the lab to determine which was the best to use for the trial. This 'lab first' approach is a first of its kind.
