Active clinical trials for "Colitis, Ulcerative"

The purpose of this study is to determine whether RPC1063 is effective in the treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC).

This is a multi-center, open-label study to determine the safety and effectiveness (how well it works) of two standardized treatments called "mesalamine" (Pentasa®) and "prednisone" in children with newly diagnosed Ulcerative Colitis (UC). Standardized treatments are types of treatments agreed upon and used by many qualified doctors. The medications being used in this study are considered "standard of care". Currently the ways in which these medicines are used (doses, frequency of dosing) may vary from site to site. This study will determine response to a standardized way of giving these medicines. This study will also identify biomarkers for ulcerative colitis. Biomarkers are things that doctors can find in blood, stool, or bowel tissue that indicate how much inflammation there is in the bowel, how the inflammation is produced, and whether the inflammation is responding to treatment. Collecting response and remission (free of symptoms) information on these standardized treatments and the "biomarkers" can possibly help doctors create a model, or plan to know which children with UC may respond quickly, or which children may develop complications.

This study was conducted to determine the efficacy and safety of GWP42003 compared with placebo by the percentage of participants achieving remission quantified as a Mayo score of 2 or less (with no sub-score >1) after 10 weeks of treatment.

The purpose of this study is to determine if cobitolimod (former called Kappaproct®) is effective in the treatment of chronic active ulcerative colitis patients not responding to available therapy.

This study evaluated the quality of life (QOL) and economic impact of adalimumab treatment in participants with ulcerative colitis (UC).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of infliximab in Chinese patients with active ulcerative colitis (swelling and ulceration of large intestine and rectum).

This study will assess the safety and efficacy of orally delivered short-term OKT3 in participants with active ulcerative colitis.

To evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of encapsulated mesalamine Granules (eMG) (formerly referred to as Mesalamine Pellets [MP]) in participants with ulcerative colitis currently in remission.

To evaluate the safety and efficacy on clinical symptoms, mucosal histology and endoscopic mucosal appearance of two doses of SR140333B against placebo in patients with mild to moderate ulcerative colitis resistant to treatment with 5-ASA.

Ulcerative colitis is a disease of the large bowel (colon) and rectum in which the lining of the bowel becomes red and swollen. Over time, patients with this disease may experience acute episodes of diarrhea, rectal bleeding and abdominal pain followed by periods of time without disease symptoms. 5-ASA drugs are a standard treatment for ulcerative colitis. Mesalazine is an experimental drug designed to gradually release 5-ASA into the areas of large bowel associated with ulcerative colitis. This study will test the safety and efficacy of mesalazine in keeping ulcerative colitis in remission.
