Active clinical trials for "Crohn Disease"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects and safety of OPS-2071 (150, 300, or 600 mg twice a day [BID]) versus placebo, as add-on therapy in participants with Crohn's disease who show symptoms of active inflammation despite being on ongoing treatment.

This was prospective study randomized in two controlled parallel groups verum versus placebo. The objectives were to assess the influence of antifungal treatment with Fluconazole (FCZ) on the rate of ASCA and endoscopic recurrence at 6 months. The rational was based on our previous research having established i) a link between intestinal inflammation and the opportunistic fungal pathogen C. albicans -a yeast colonizing the human digestive tract- ii) the demonstration that this yeast species could be at the origin of ASCA, a prominent serological marker of CD. It was therefore hypothesized that the FCZ could lower the rate of ASCA and/or reduce the occurrence of recurrences.

This study will randomize all patients who are new to the Mayo Clinic HPN team to either standard lipid emulsion (Intralipid) or SMOFLipid.

Breastfeeding is beneficial to both mother and baby. However, many breastfeeding women are affected by long-term health conditions and need to take medications. Sometimes, concerns about transfer of drugs to infants via breast milk lead the mothers to either avoid breastfeeding or stop their medication. Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) is a chronic condition that is marked by an abnormal response of the body's immune system, and high levels of certain proteins that cause inflammation (Cytokines like Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha or TNFα). A group of drugs called "biologics" target and stop these proteins from causing inflammation, and have been successfully used to treat this condition. Inflammatory proteins may be present in breast milk of healthy women in variable levels, and may play a role in development of infant's brain and immune system. This study is being conducted to investigate: Concentration of some of the inflammatory proteins in breast milk of mothers with IBD and healthy controls Interaction between these proteins and biologics in breast milk of women with IBD Potential role of these proteins (and their interaction with biologics) on development of infant learning and memory function It has been presumed that concentrations of TNFα and some other cytokines are higher in breast milk of women with IBD, and the biologics can normalize these high levels. Due to precautions for COVID-19, the study now consists of only two mandatory study visits and two optional study visits. The mandatory visits include two home visits in the first 4 months postpartum to complete a participant questionnaire and collect a small sample of breast milk at each visit. The optional study visits consist of two visits at the Hospital for Sick Children for evaluation of learning and memory function of the infant at the ages of 12 and 18 months. Additionally, mothers will be required to complete for their infant subscales of The Ages and Stages Questionnaires®, Third Edition (ASQ®-3) either in person or over the telephone at the ages of 12 months and 18 months.

A Phase 2 study to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of TD-1473 in subjects with moderately-to-severely active Crohn's Disease with up to 48 weeks of treatment.

The QBECO-CD-02 trial in subjects with moderate to severe Crohn's disease (CD) is intended to build on past experience with QBECO SSI and further establish the safety and efficacy of QBECO SSI for the induction of clinical and/or endoscopic response and remission. The study will be conducted in three stages; a Lead-in, Main Induction and Main Maintenance .The first 20 patients will be enrolled in the Lead-in study, at approximately 5 study centers in Canada. Subsequent patients will be enrolled in the Main study, which aims to enroll 150 patients. The Lead-in component will be an open-label study to evaluate endoscopic healing endpoints. The Main Induction study will be randomized and placebo-controlled. Participants meeting response criteria following the Main Induction study will be eligible to continue into the Main Maintenance study, remaining on their initially randomized treatment. Participants not meeting response criteria will complete their follow-up and study involvement at the end of the Main Induction.

Ano-perineal (or ano-rectal) fistulas are a frequent and major complication of Crohn's disease. Indeed, they indicate a greater severity of the disease. In addition, they have a major impact on the quality of life of patients. Finally, these fistulas are difficult to cure, especially when they are complex. Indeed, medical treatment with anti-TNF drugs can only cure them in one third of cases. Various obturation treatments have been proposed in addition to medical treatment such as advancement flap, injection of biological glue, placement of a plug, intersphincter ligation of the fistulous path or laser but with still insufficient healing rates. The injection of mesenchymal stem cells of adipose origin was first proposed for this indication in 2003. Since then, numerous studies have been published on the subject. Most importantly, an international multicenter randomized double-blind phase 3 controlled trial demonstrated the superiority of allogeneic stem cells over placebo with a therapeutic effect maintained at one year follow-up. The trial involved selected patients with Crohn's disease and one or more complex ano-perineal fistulas refractory to conventional treatments. This treatment has a high cost and its practical modalities are constraining (manufacturing, delivery, constrained time between the factory and the injection). However, this study is the first to have demonstrated in such a rigorous way the effectiveness of a local treatment on complex ano-perineal fistulas of Crohn's disease. These allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells have therefore been granted marketing authorization in Europe and have been commercialized in several European countries including France during the summer of 2020 under the trade name ALOFISEL®. They are indicated for complex ano-perineal fistulas that have not responded to at least one conventional biological treatment, in the context of inactive or less active Crohn's disease. The main objective of the study is to evaluate the rate of "deep" remission (i.e. clinical and radiological) at 12 months of follow-up in the first patients treated in France with ALOFISIEL® after its marketing. The evaluation is performed at 12 months because it seems that the result is consolidated after this period.

This study will primarily evaluate the safety and efficacy of andecaliximab in adults with active Crohn's disease. The study will consist of a Double-Blind Phase of 8 weeks followed by an Open-Label Extension. Participants who complete the Double-Blind Phase will be eligible to enroll in the optional Open-Label Extension for an additional 44 weeks. Participants who complete Week 52 assessments will be eligible to enter the Extended Treatment Phase to continue treatment with andecaliximab for an additional 156 weeks.

The goal of the present study is to evaluate the best regimen for infliximab monotherapy, and to evaluate if limited combination therapy with IFX and an Immunomodulator for the first 6 months of therapy, in prior Immunomodulator failures, is superior to monotherapy with Immunomodulator cessation from the second infusion, in preventing loss of remission to IFX.

The purpose of this study is to determine safety and efficacy of eASCs (expanded adult stem cells) for treatment of complex perianal fistulas in patients with Crohn's disease.
