Active clinical trials for "Crohn Disease"

Several open-label studies reported thalidomide efficacy in inducing clinical remission and steroid tapering in refractory Inflammatory Bowel diseases (IBD), both in adults and in children. This is a randomized placebo controlled (RCT) double blind study, to evaluate the efficacy of thalidomide in inducing clinical remission at 8 weeks in refractory IBD patients aged 2-20 years. The primary hypotheses of the study is that thalidomide would be more effective than placebo in inducing clinical remission. The RCT phase is followed by a open-label phase, to further evaluate efficacy and safety of thalidomide in thalidomide responders, with a total follow up of one year.

This multicenter, randomized, controlled trial was conducted by the Groupe d'Etude Thérapeutique des Affections Inflammatoires du tube Digestif (GETAID) to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the injection of fibrin glue in perianal fistulas tracts of patients with CD. The institutional Independent Ethics Committee of Marseille, France and of Liège, Belgium approved the protocol for each participating centers. Recruitment took place at 12 sites (11 in France and 1 in Belgium)

The purpose of this study is to determine how safe, tolerable and effective the new standardised dosage regimen of FERINJECT® infusions is, compared with a well established intravenous iron treatment.

Primary outcome measure: Evaluation of viability, security and tolerance of the adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells implant (ASCs) in fistulizing Crohn's disease patients, collecting the reactions and adverse events occurred during the study. Secondary outcome measures: Evaluating the Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells therapeutic effect, in particular: Fistulas healing efficiency Changes in quality of life in patients treated Changes of systemic Crohn's disease after implant Relapse rate monitored among patients who achieved Adipose-derived mesenchymal Stem Cells treatment success. Achieving the biological characterization of the cell product used and its correlation with the therapeutic effect measured with: Phenotype study Suppressor capacity study. Citoquines production analysis

This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of 9 mg budesonide once daily (OD) versus 3 mg budesonide three-times daily (TID) for the induction of remission in Crohn's disease.

The purpose of this study is to determine safety and efficacy of allogenic eASCs (expanded adult stem cells) for the treatment of recto-vaginal fistula in patients with Crohn´s disease.

Assess if the implementation of a treatment algorithm will improve the management of Crohn's disease (CD) in comparison to usual care based gastroenterology practices.

Inflammatory Bowel Disease (Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis) often results in significant life disruption, hospitalization and surgery. While psychosocial factors are not believed to cause IBD, such factors can contribute to the ability of individuals with IBD to cope with the disease, and ineffective coping may lead to the exacerbation of IBD symptoms. The goal of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a social learning and cognitive behavior therapy approach for treating children with IBD. The primary outcomes of interest are IBD symptoms, medical visits, quality of life, and overall disability.

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate efficacy of certolizumab pegol in inducing clinical remission in patients with moderate to severe Crohn's disease as compared with placebo based on Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) score at Week 6.

The study prospectively compares two treatment algorithms for newly diagnosed Crohn's disease: one 'aggressive' treatment with early introduction of immunomodulators and biologicals and one 'standard treatment' with corticosteroids and only later introduction of immunosuppressives and biologicals if disease activity requires that.
