ABTECT-1 - ABX464 Treatment Evaluation for Ulcerative Colitis Therapy -1
This is a multicenter, randomized, placebo controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ABX464 given at 25 or 50 mg QD in inducing clinical remission in subjects with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis who have inadequate response, no response, a loss of response, or an intolerance to either conventional therapies [corticosteroids, immunosuppressant (i.e. azathioprine, 6-mercaptopurine, methotrexate)] and/or advanced therapies [biologics (TNF inhibitors, anti-integrins, anti-IL-23), and/or S1P receptor modulators, and/or JAK inhibitors].

ABTECT - Maintenance
This is a multicenter, randomized study to evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of ABX464 50mg and 25mg administered once daily (QD) as maintenance therapy in subjects with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis who have inadequate response, no response, a loss of response, or an intolerance to either conventional therapies [corticosteroids, immunosuppressant (i.e. azathioprine, 6-mercaptopurine, methotrexate)] and/or advanced therapies [biologics (TNF inhibitors, anti-integrins, anti-IL-23), and/or S1P receptor modulators, and/or JAK inhibitors]. This study is the maintenance phase of both previous induction...

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....

A Culturally Tailored Dietary Intervention to Treat Crohn's Disease
The goal of the study is to test the efficacy of a dietary intervention in inducing clinical response and remission for patients with Crohn's disease in a randomized controlled trial. The intervention diet: DAIN has been adapted from the Inflammatory Bowel Disease Anti-Inflammatory Diet or IBD-AID™ taking into account the food availability and preferences of Puerto Ricans. DAIN also includes traditional foods commonly consumed in the typical Puerto Rican diet while maintaining the fundamental components of the IBD-AID™.

Addressing Disability Effectively With Psychosocial Telemedicine
This multi-site study will be implemented at 5 gastroenterology practices to recruit 420 adults with IBD to complete a baseline survey and enroll those with higher scores on a validated IBD-disability scale into a randomized controlled trial of telehealth-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy with a licensed psychologist versus usual care. The investigators aim to lay the foundations that will shift the paradigm of IBD clinical practice towards a new horizon of holistic and equitable high-value care.

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 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.
