Active clinical trials for "Colitis, Ulcerative"

Post-authorization, prospective and unicenter clinical trial, in which patients with UC will be included. The treatment with anti-TNFα (infliximab, adalimumab or golimumab) or JAK-inhibitors (tofacitinib) will be initiated by clinical practice and the choice will be made at the discretion of the investigator at the center where the patients will be recruited (Hospital Universitario de La Princesa). In the case of the group of patients treated with tofacitinib, the selection will be made following the action protocol implemented in our center, in which this drug is usually reserved for those cases refractory to anti-TNFα and/or vedolizumab. There will be no random assignment of treatment. The drugs will be used in the approved indications and conditions of use.

An increased risk of cardiovascular (CV) diseases has been observed in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). The impact of IBD drugs, such as anti-TNF, anti-integrins or anti-JAK, on the risk of CV events in IBD is remains unknown. Aortic pulse wave velocity (aPWV), a measure of aortic stiffness, and carotid intima media thickness (CIMT) are both predictors of cardiovascular events and are increased in patients with IBD. The investigators aimed to prospectively compare the CV risk, CIMT, arterial stiffness and biomarkers of endothelial dysfunction at baseline and after 3 and 12 months of anti-TNF, vedolizumab and tofacitinib.

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter Phase 3 study that will enroll approximately 368 subjects aged 18 to 75 years old with Moderately to Severely Active Ulcerative Colitis.

The aim of this study is to investigate whether intensive, personalized IFX dosing by using a pharmacokinetics driven dashboard system during the induction phase in patients with acute severe UC leads to increased treatment success (as defined by clinical and endoscopic response at week 6) as compared to the standard dosing.

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is an idiopathic, chronic inflammatory disease characterized by diffused inflammation of the colon and rectum mucosa, however, the exact underlying mechanisms of UC remain poorly understood.UC is strongly dependent on cellular immune reaction and exaggerated inflammatory response due to genetic, immune and environmental factors.

This study is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind study. There are three dosage groups: Hemay005 45 mg BID group, 60 mg BID group or placebo group, with 36 patients in each dosage group. All patients will enter a 12-week double-blind treatment period. All subjects who have received the investigational drug should be subjected to a 4-week observation after the end of treatment.

Fibrates, specific pharmacological agonists of PPARα, have been widely used to treat hypercholesterolemia and hypertriglyceridemia. Apart from their metabolic action, anti-inflammatory properties of fibrates have been described, including inhibition of NF-kappa B signaling and pro-inflammatory cytokine production. 4 Fenofibrate, an important peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-a (PPAR- α) agonist, is widely used in clinical as a triglyceride (TG)-lowering agent

A study to investigate bowel urgency in adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC) treated with mirikizumab. The study will have 4 periods and will last for 36 weeks.

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is one of the most common types of chronic and non-specific inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). It is characterized by cytokine-induced continuous and diffuse inflammatory infiltrations into the rectum's mucosa and extends proximally to the colon. Patients with UC predominantly have bloody diarrhea, abdominal pain, fecal urgency, and tenesmus, which extremely alters their quality of life. Although the precise pathological mechanism of UC remains unclear, several studies have been outlined many factors that could involve in the pathogenesis of UC, including, but not limited to, initiation of the inflammatory response, disruption of oxidant/antioxidant status, dysregulation of the immune response, alteration of gut microbiota, and delaying epithelial barrier healing. Loss of intestinal barrier function and dysregulated immune response are the key events during colitis development
