Active clinical trials for "Colitis, Ulcerative"

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy, safety and tolerability of apremilast (30 mg twice daily [BID] and 40 mg BID), compared with placebo, in participants with active Ulcerative Colitis (UC).

The aim of this study is to determine the tolerability and potential efficacy of dietary therapy, the Specific Carbohydrate Diet (SCD), in pediatric patients with Crohn's disease (CD) and Ulcerative Colitis (UC). This is a single center, open labelled study designed to determine tolerability, preliminary safety and potential efficacy in pediatric patients with CD and UC. The study patients will be recruited from Seattle Children's GI clinic. the investigators will enroll 10 patients with mild to moderate CD (defined as PCDAI score of 10-29) or Ulcerative colitis (PUCAI 10-60) ages 8 to 21 years. Each patient will be in the study for approximately 12 weeks.

The presented study aims to reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety in adolescents with inflammatory bowel disease and increased symptoms of anxiety and depression by using the disease specific CBT program (PASCET-PI)in order to improve quality of life and to improve the clinical course of disease.

Ulcerative colitis is a chronic inflammatory disease primarily involving the colon and has long been considered to be due to a dysregulated immune response targeting the colon, and involves unknown environmental factors. Currently, no effective therapy targets the microbiota or its interaction with the colonic epithelium. Diet has a significant impact on the composition of the microbiota; however, no dietary intervention to date has proven effective for induction of remission. The primary objective of this study is to determine whether the Ulcerative Colitis Diet (UCD) can induce remission or response in pediatric UC patients with active mild to moderate UC on a stable medication.

The objectives of Sub-Study 1 are to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of risankizumab as induction treatment in subjects with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC), and to identify the appropriate induction dose of risankizumab for further evaluation in Sub-Study 2. The objective of Sub-Study 2 is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of risankizumab compared to placebo in inducing clinical remission in subjects with moderately to severely active UC.

The proposed study is a randomized, double-blind,placebo-controlled, multicenter phase II study to investigate the safety and efficacy of SHR0302 in patients with moderate to severe active ulcerative colitis. The study aims to evaluate the optimal dose of SHR0302 and time needed to induce clinical response in active ulcerative colitis patients. This is an 8+8 weeks study, in which participants who complete the first 8 weeks treatment phase, will have the option to enter a blinded active arms 8-week extension phase. Early withdrawn subjects during the first treatment phase can not enter the extension phase. The total duration of the study participation, including extension and follow-up, will be approximately 18 weeks. SHR0302 is a Janus kinase 1(JAK1) inhibitor, capable of blocking Janus kinase-signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK-STATs) pathway and controlling inflammation. Therefore it has the potential to be a treatment for ulcerative colitis.

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of etrasimod on clinical remission in participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC).

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of oral deucravacitinib in participants with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis (UC).

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that most likely results from the interaction between various environmental and genetic factors. Using probiotics as an adjunct to medical therapy might be useful in the treatment of UC and improving the symptoms of the disease. The result of studies that investigate the role of Probiotics supplementation in improving the inflammatory response, immune response and life quality of patients with the UC is not conclusive. So, this study aimed to study the effect of probiotics on the response of inflammatory markers, immune response, and quality of life in patients with UC. An interventional double-blind randomized clinical trial (RCT) design will be used in this study. Forty patients will be recruited and randomly assigned to the placebo group (n=20) to receive 3 times a day placebo capsules; and probiotics group (n=20), to receive 3 times a day probiotic supplement. The demographic data, anthropometric measurements, IBD Quality of Life Questionnaire and blood samples will be collected at baseline and after 6 weeks of follow up. Interleukin-6, interleukin-1,interleukin-10 IL-10, C-reactive protein, tumor necrosis factor-alpha and complete blood count (CBC) will be measured. The results will approve or disapprove the beneficial effect of using probiotics as adjuvant therapy for UC patients to raise the immune system as well as improving their quality of life.

The primary goal of the study is to develop an early (within 4 weeks) combined microbiota/metabolic signature predicting clinical response upon anti-inflammatory treatment in UC patients.
