Arm Description
In this arm subjects will receive re-induction treatment of infliximab at weeks 0,2, and 6.
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)

Fecal calprotectin measurements

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.

Intervention Description
For physicians who do not feel comfortable enrolling patients in a randomized trial of infliximab re-induction they will have the option of enrolling their patients in an arm that resumes maintenance therapy only instead at 0 and 8 weeks.
