The purpose of a clinical trial is to determine the most effective and safest treatment for a disease. Clinical trial evaluation is a key step to translating research into new medicines that can provide better outcomes for patients. The performance of clinical trials is a vital component of U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s drug approval process, without which advances in therapeutics for patients would not be possible. Often the lengthiest aspect of the drug approval process is finding people to participate in trials. The Clinical Trial Finder is intended to help raise awareness and increase participation in clinical trials to facilitate research and accelerate the development of new drugs and treatments for patients.
Finding a Trial
To help you find clinical trials that may best suit your particular needs, please fill out the filter questions below. As a result of your search and after reviewing the details, if you are interested in learning more about a trial, identify the trial site nearest to your location and contact the site coordinator via email or phone. We also strongly recommend that you consult with your healthcare provider about the trials that may interest you and refer to our terms of service below.
The information returned from your search has been obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

A Cohort Study Comparing IFX to CS for Moderate to Severe UC
The first-line treatment strategy of moderate to severe UC was a important question at issue. The biological agents had potentiality to alter the disease course of UC. The AGA clinical guidelines had conditional recommend that IFX and other biological agene migtht be first-line therapy for high-risk UC patints but only had low grade evidence.We launched this multicenter prospective cohort trial to compare the efficacy and safety of infliximab (IFX) and corticosteroids(CS) when they was used as first-line therapy in UC patients.

A Comparative Study of MRI, US and CE for Assessing Treatment Response in Known Crohn's Disease
The aim of this study is to evaluate non-invasive imaging techniques for assessing treatment response in known Crohn's disease. 1. Comparing imaging modalities: The applicability of small bowel colon capsule endoscopy (SBCCE), magnetic resonance enterocolonography (MREC) and ultrasound (US) for diagnosing ulcer healing after medical treatment in patients with symptomatic Crohn's disease compared to ileocolonoscopy. 1. Sensitivity and specificity for ulcer healing 2. Changes in activity parameters for SBCCE, MREC and US before and after medical treatment. 3....

Adherence of a 1.600 mg Single Tablet 5-ASA Treatment of Ulcerative Colitis
Several oral mesalazine (5-ASA) formulations exist, but the regimes require several tablets per day. Such regimens are not ideal and can interfere with normal daily activities of patients. Non-adherence has been associated with an increase in the risk of relapse and worse disease course; leading to a decrease in quality of life, an increase in societal and personal costs, and worst case increases the risk of colorectal cancer. Recently, a new formula for 5-ASA has been approved by the Danish Medicine Agency, with a single tablet regime per day. Primary purpose: • To investigate whether a simplified treatment regimen for 5-...

A Dietary Intervention Study on the Microbiome in Crohn's Disease Patients
This protocol is designed to compare the effectiveness of a soy-based diet or identical diet without soy given to patients with Crohn's disease (CD) in remission, patients with active CD, or healthy controls. The assigned diet will be compared to participant 'baseline' (pre-diet) in terms of its ability to change the gut bacteria and fecal butyrate, an important short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) that limits bowel inflammation, a characteristic of this debilitating disease.

Adipose Mesenchymal Stem Cells (AMSC) for Treatment of Ulcerative Colitis
Ulcerative colitis is a form of inflammatory bowel disease characterized by diffuse inflammation of the colonic mucosa. It affects the rectum and extends proximally along a variable length of the colon. Ulcerative colitis is a chronic condition with a relapsing remitting course. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a subset of adult stem cells residing in many tissues, including bone marrow (BM), adipose tissue, umbilical cord blood. Recent experimental findings have shown the ability of MSCs to home to damaged tissues and to produce paracrine factors with anti-inflammatory properties, potentially resulting in reduction of inflammation...

Adipose Tissue Injection in Perianal Fistulas in Crohn´s Disease
This randomized and placebo controlled study investigates the efficacy of injections with freshly harvested autologous adipose tissue in CD patients with complex perianal fistulas refractory to standard surgical and/or medical treatment. 140 CD patients will be included and randomized to either treatment with freshly harvested autologous adipose tissue or placebo (saline). Primary outcome measures are clinical healing 6 months after treatment evaluated by clinical examination and pelvic MRI.

Alanyl-glutamine Supplementation for C. Difficile Treatment (ACT)
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial to determine the optimal dose and safety of oral alanyl-glutamine between 4, 24, and 44 g doses administered for 10 days with standard therapy among first time incident cases of uncomplicated C. difficile infection (CDI) in hospitalized persons aged 65 or older. Our hypothesis is that alanyl-glutamine supplementation will decrease recurrence and mortality from CDI and these outcomes will be associated with improvement of inflammatory markers and restoration of intestinal microbiota function.

A Maintenance Study of Mirikizumab in Participants With Moderately to Severely Active Ulcerative Colitis
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of mirikizumab as maintenance therapy in participants who completed prior 12-week induction study AMAN (NCT03518086).
