Real-world Effectiveness of Tofacitinib on Ulcerative Colitis Associated Spondyloarthropathy
Ulcerative ColitisSpondyloarthropathyTofacitinib (TOFA) is a JAK inhibitor already used in rheumatology for the treatment of moderate-to-severe active rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis in adult patients who have responded inadequately to, or who are intolerant to one or more disease- modifying antirheumatic drugs. Furthermore, TOFA has been recently approved for the treatment of adult patients with moderate-to-severe active Ulcerative Colitis (UC) who had no response, lose response, or were intolerant to either conventional therapy or a biologic agent. The approval was based on the efficacy demonstrated by TOFA in three phase 3 randomized controlled trials named OCTAVE: two identically designed, 8-week, placebo- controlled, induction studies of oral TOFA 10 mg twice daily followed by the OCTAVE Sustain 52-week maintenance study. About sacroiliitis, 2 out of 8 patients treated with TOFA improved after 8 weeks, compared with 0 out of 3 patients in the placebo group. Obviously, these data should be interpreted with extreme caution since patient numbers were very low, and it should be again emphasized that these trials were not designed to explore the efficacy of TOFA onextraintestinal manifestations. On these premises, we designed a prospective, multicenter, observational, 52-week study with the aim of assess the effectiveness of TOFA on UC-associated spondyloarthropathy.

The Impact of Circadian Misalignment on Colonic Barrier Homeostasis in Ulcerative Colitis
Ulcerative ColitisThe purpose of this study is to investigate if circadian malalignment (unusual sleeping patterns), such as night shifts (sleeping during the day and being awake during the night time), worsens the inflammation of the gut. We hope to look at patients with Ulcerative Colitis and Healthy Controls.
Oral Fecal Microbiota Transplantation in Pediatric Ulcerative Colitis
Pediatric Ulcerative Colitis in RemissionThe purpose of this study is to evaluate whether FMT by frozen stool capsules in pediatric UC patients in remission after corticosteroid treatment, can modify their dysbiotic gut microbiota by increasing the richness of their microbiota at 6 months.

Role of Roflumilast in Ulcerative Colitis
Ulcerative ColitisThis study aims to investigate possible efficacy and safety of Roflumilast in adult patients with ulcerative colitis disease .
Combination of Diet and Oral Budesonide for Ulcerative Colitis
Ulcerative ColitisUlcerative Colitis Chronic Mild1 moreThe ReDUCE Trial is a multinational single-blinded randomized controlled trial in mild to moderate flare of Ulcerative colitis (UC) disease patients. The purpose of the study is to validate the clinical efficacy of the UCED (Ulcerative colitis Exclusion Diet) with partial enteral nutrition (PEN) using a novel formula. The investigators anticipate that adding a novel specifically designed dietary intervention in addition to drug will lead to superior remission and mucosal healing via changes in the microbiome.
