About this trial

This is an interventional basic science trial for Crohn's Disease focused on measuring Crohn's disease, Infliximab, T-cell immunoglobulin- and mucin-domain-containing molecule 3 (TIM-3)

Eligibility Criteria

13 Years - 17 Years (Child)All SexesAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • •Pediatric patients who were diagnosed with severe Crohn's disease who require infliximab treatment

    • confirmed diagnostic of Crohn's disease in clinical, endoscopic and histological findings

Exclusion Criteria:

  • •patients who has proven to have infliximab antibody

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This study investigated the expression of T-cell immunoglobulin- and mucin-domain-containing molecule 3 (TIM-3) in the colonic mucosa and/or the peripheral blood of children with Crohn's disease during anti TNF-α (infliximab) therapy.
Detailed Description
The immunoregulatory effects of TIM-3 on patients with Crohn's disease according to the treatment have not yet been investigated.
