Infliximab (IFX) is a Food and Drug administration (FDA)-appoved monoclonal antibody medication targeting tumor necrosis factor (TNF) widely used in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) to treat intestinal inflammation and improve patient's symptoms. Intravenous (iv) IFX is effective to treat hospitalized IBD patients with moderate-to-severe flares who fail iv corticosteroids (CS). …
The purpose of this study is to test the impact of Healing Circuits™; a structured mental health support model on IBD patients. The eligible study participants will be randomly divided into two groups: 1. the group receiving structured mental health support with a social worker and 2. the group receiving …
To determine if robotic surgery can be performed for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients, to ascertain the optimal robotic set up for multi-quadrant IBD operations and evaluate clinical outcomes in robotic compared to laparoscopic surgery.
In the context of the COLORIZE study, it is being tested whether the endoscopic light mode Texture and Color Enhancement Imaging (TXI) is non-inferior to the standard White Light Endoscopy (WLE) in assessing inflammatory activity in patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). For this purpose, ileocolonoscopy is performed on patients …
The goal of this observational study is to measure and compare the presence of microplastics in children with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and children without IBD. The main questions it aims to answer are: Are microplastics detectable in different biological samples from children? Are there differences in microplastic burden between …
The purpose of this study is to assess the capacity of the gut microbial composition and function to predict the course of IBD during the first year after diagnosis.
Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), which encompasses ulcerative Colitis (UC) and Crohn's Disease (CD), has seen significant improvements in patient outcomes with biologic treatments. However, nearly half of the patients are either primary or secondary non-responders to the existing biologics. Upadacitinib is the only oral small molecule targeted drug approved for …
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the treatment with subcutaneous infliximab in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that were previously treated with an optimized dose of intravenous infliximab. The main question it aims to answer is: \- Is switching to a weekly dose of subcutaneous …
Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD) are chronic inflammations of the gastrointestinal tract. Regardless of the etiology, a common trait of IBD pathogenesis is the inflammatory damage inflicted on the intestinal mucosa and the loss of intestinal epithelial barrier integrity. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms that govern IEC's capacity to maintain barrier function …
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the gut bacteria in IBD patients cause ongoing abdominal pain, even when the disease is calm. Many inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients have this pain, regardless of whether their disease is active or not. This might be linked to an imbalance …
