Active clinical trials for "Colitis"

Low Level Light therapy (LLLT) has been used for tissue healing in many mucosal diseases that involve wounds, ulcers and inflammation, oral chemotherapy-induced mucositis in particular. Likewise IBD is characterized by chronic tissue inflammation, tissue damage and ulcerations in various extents. Therefore we hypothesize that LLLT might be effective in treating IBD and the Photopill capsule was developed for this purpose. An open-label, interventional, clinical trial was designed for assessment of the safety and feasibilty of the Photopill capsule treatment in patients with mild to moderate Ulcerative Proctitis. Primary endpoints being: safety reflected by the number and severity of adverse events and mucosal appearance at sigmoidoscopies day 14, day 28, day 42 compared to baseline condition. Furthermore clinical and biochemical parameters are monitored during the study.

Approximately 45 patients suffering from mild to moderate ulcerative colitis will be examined for any side effects (safety and tolerability) that may occur when taking GLPG0974 or matching placebo (2:1 ratio) for 28 days. During the course of the study, patients will also be evaluated for improvement of disease activity by different efficacy measures, the amount of GLPG0974 present in the blood determined (PK) and the effects of GLPG0974 on selected biomarkers (PD) in the blood, colon biopsies and faeces will be explored.

To demonstrate non-inferiority in efficacy of FE 999315 to mesalazine in patients with mild to moderate active ulcerative colitis after 8 weeks of treatment.

This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of UTTR1147A compared with vedolizumab and with placebo in the treatment of participants with moderate to severe UC. This study will consist of two parts, Part A and Part B. Part A will test the induction of clinical remission and Part B will test the durability of clinical remission.

The objectives of this trial are safety and efficacy (proof-of-concept) of induction of mucosal healing by BI 655130 add-on therapy in patients with mild or moderate ulcerative colitis and persisting endoscopic activity despite pre-existing TNFi treatment. This trial will explore safety and efficacy of a dose of BI 655130 that was modelled to achieve the similar exposures as the highest exposures tested and found safe and tolerable in preceding single and multiple dose studies in healthy subjects, as add-on to pre-existing TNFi (Tumor necrosis factor inhibitor) treatment. Secondary and further objectives include assessment of the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of BI 655130 and early exploration of specific biomarkers with potential usefulness to predict clinical efficacy or safety outcome or help understand BI 655130's mode of action.

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase II study.

Fecal Microbiota Transplantation will be offered to eligible C. difficile patients (does not require Investigational New Drug designation) and to eligible ulcerative colitis or indeterminate colitis patients as Investigational New Drug treatment

This study is the first experience with GSK2982772, a receptor-interacting protein-1 (RIP1) kinase inhibitor, in subjects with active ulcerative colitis (UC). The primary objective will be to investigate the safety and tolerability of repeat oral doses of GSK2982772 60 mg or placebo three times daily for 42 days (Part A) followed by open label with GSK298772 60 mg three times daily for 42 days (Part B). In addition to pharmacokinetics (PK), a number of experimental and clinical endpoints will be employed to obtain information on the pharmacodynamics (PD), and preliminary efficacy in subjects with active UC. Although no formal hypothesis will be tested, these endpoints will enable a broader understanding of the mechanism of action and potential for clinical efficacy of GSK2982772 in UC. Within 30 Days of screening visit, subjects will be randomized to receive either GSK2982772 60 mg or placebo orally three times daily for 42 Days (6 weeks) in a 2:1 ratio in Part A study. Subjects who complete the Part A study will move to open label Part B study to receive GSK2982772 60 mg three times daily for an additional 42 Days (6 weeks). After the open label (Part B) treatment period, subjects will enter the Follow-up period which lasts for 28 Days (+/- 3 Days) post the last administration of study medication. The total duration of participation in the study will be approximately 20 Weeks from screening to the last study visit.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether PF-06651600 and PF-06700841 are effective in treatment of moderate to severe ulcerative colitis.

Phase 1 randomized, open-label, multicenter, parallel-group study designed to evaluate efficacy, pharmacokinetics and safety between CT-P13 subcutaneous (SC) and CT-P13 intravenous (IV) in patients with active Crohn's Disease (CD) and active Ulcerative Colitis (UC).
