Active clinical trials for "Colitis"

To evaluate the long-term safety of BI 655130 (SPESOLIMAB) in patients with moderate to severely active ulcerative colitis, who have completed treatment in previous trials To evaluate the long-term efficacy of BI 655130 (SPESOLIMAB) in patients with moderate to severely active ulcerative colitis, who have completed treatment in previous trials

Study M15-722 is a Phase 2a study to investigate the efficacy and safety of Ravagalimab (ABBV-323) in participants with moderate to severe UC who failed prior therapy.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of combination therapy with guselkumab and golimumab in participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of PRV-300 for 12 weeks in subjects with active ulcerative colitis. Subjects will receive either PRV-300 or placebo treatment. Each group will receive study drug over a total of 12 weeks, followed by an 8-week safety follow-up period.

The objective of this study is to assess the feasibility of a novel colonic and oral fecal microbiota transplantation protocol for the treatment of active pediatric Crohn's disease (CD). Specifically, we will test the hypothesis that a protocol of combination fecal microbiota colonoscopic infusion and oral microbiota capsules (OMC), using live fecal material from anonymous unrelated donors, can improve the disease activity of pediatric CD patients.

This study is designed to evaluate how the body processes and removes mirikizumab. The study will also evaluate safety and disease response in pediatric participants with UC taking mirikizumab. The study will last about 52 weeks and may include up to 18 visits.

Microscopic colitis (MC) is a disease with chronic inflammation of the colon that is mostly diagnosed in middle-aged or elderly women. Patients suffer from chronic watery diarrhoea, abdominal pain and weight loss. The aetiology of MC is still unknown but it is hypothesized that MC is caused by a deregulated immune response to a luminal agent in predisposed individuals, and an important role of the intestinal microbiota is suggested. In the current proof-of-concept study, the effect of faecal microbiota transfer (FMT) in 10 MC patients will be evaluated. FMT consists in the infusion of suspended stool from a healthy donor into the intestine of a patient with the aim to restore a disturbed intestinal microbiota.

The etiopathogenesis of ulcerative colitis (UC) is not fully understood. One of the theories of UC pathogenesis represents a pathological response of mucosal immunity to intestinal microbiota. Potential therapeutic procedure how to affect this fact is the faecal microbiota transplantation (FMT). Review of the literature on FMT suggests great potential as the treatment for UC, but two prospective controlled study that has been published yet are inconsistent. The first objective of the project is to compare the administration of FMT enema with mesalazine enema for inducing remission in patients with active left-sided UC in the form of a prospective, randomized, controlled study. The second objective is to observe changes in the intestinal microbiota during and after FMT focusing on bacterial DNA sequencing to identify the bacterial species which are responsible for the effect of the FMT.

This is a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess the safety and tolerability of multiple ascending doses of BT051 in subjects with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis. Subjects will be randomised using a 3 active:1 placebo ratio to 3 ascending dose cohorts of 8 subjects and will be dosed daily for 28 days. The 3 initial dose levels will be 200 mg, 800 mg and 3200 mg per day. Progression to the next cohort will be based on the safety and tolerability of the previous cohort.

Together with Crohn's disease (CD), ulcerative colitis (UC) is one of the major forms of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD).Currently, no curative therapy is available, since the pathophysiology of this disease is incompletely understood (1-3) and clinical practice demonstrates that current therapies induce remission in subgroups of patients only. Scientific evidence suggests that colitogenic immune responses can be controlled by increasing the number of circulating regulatory T cells (Treg) (4). The production of large numbers of autologous Treg is possible by isolation of CD25+ cells from the whole blood of a patient and subsequent ex vivo expansion in the presence of the immunomodulatory drug rapamycin, Interleukin-2 (IL-2) and CD3/CD28 expander beads (5). ER-TREG 01 is a single-center, open-label, fast-track phase I dose-escalation study designed to assess the safety profile and maximal tolerated dose (MTD) of a single infusion of ex vivo expanded autologous Treg in patients with active ulcerative colitis.
