    In this arm subjects will receive re-induction treatment of infliximab at weeks 0, 4, and 8

    In this arm subjects will not be randomized. They will receive re-induction therapy weeks 0 and 8.

    Outcomes

    Primary Outcome Measures

    Failure Rate
    Defined by the number of patients who discontinued or are adjusting their dosage of Infliximab.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    Short-term clinical response
    The physician will determine the presence or absence of IBD (Inflammatory Bowel Disease) using his clinical judgement based on clinical disease indices and serum inflammatory biomarkers.
    Long-term clinical response
    The physician will determine the presence or absence of IBD (Inflammatory Bowel Disease) using his clinical judgement based on clinical disease indices and serum inflammatory biomarkers.
    Short-term changes in patient Quality of Life
    This will be measured by the Short Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (SIBDQ)
    Long-term changes in patient Quality of Life
    This will be measured by the Short Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (SIBDQ)
    Fecal calprotectin measurements
    This will be measured by ELISA kits

    5. Study Description

    Brief Summary
    The primary purpose of the project is to determine what is the best schedule for restarting infliximab in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) specifically ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, who have undergone infliximab infusions before. The primary endpoint would be the failure rate; the need to discontinue infliximab or change treatment. A secondary aim will be to determine if infliximab drug and antibody levels can predict clinical outcomes at 1 year. Other secondary outcomes include comparing short-term and long-term steroid free remission rate, and serum and fecal inflammatory markers in response to infliximab.
