Safety and Tolerability of Vorinostat for the Treatment of Moderate-to-Severe Crohn s Disease
Background: Crohn's disease (CD) is an inflammatory bowel disease. It causes inflammation of the gut. Symptoms may include diarrhea, abdominal pain, fatigue, weight loss and malnutrition. CD has no cure, but symptoms can sometimes be controlled with medicine. Researchers want to see if it is safe to treat CD with the medicine vorinostat. It is thought that vorinostat may reduce the inflammation process of CD. This may then help to relieve symptoms of CD. Objectives: To see if vorinostat is safe for people with moderate-to-severe CD. Eligibility: Adults 18 65 with moderate-to-severe CD that medicine is not controlling. ...

Shingrix Vaccine in Patients With Moderate to Severe Ulcerative Colitis on Tofacitinib
Patients with ulcerative colitis (UC), a chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), have been shown to be at increased risk of developing certain infections, such as shingles from the Herpes Zoster (HZ) virus, as a result of their underlying disease. Patients with UC are also often treated with immunosuppressants, and research has shown that IBD patients on immunosuppressants have an impaired immune response to vaccination in comparison to immunocompetent controls. Because UC patients are often treated with immunosuppressants, the live HZ vaccine was not recommended in these patients. Shingrix, however, is a new inactivated vaccine recently...

Small Bowel Deep Learning Algorithm Project
Crohn's disease affects 200,000 people in the UK (~1 in 500), most are young (diagnosed < 35 years) with costs of direct medical care exceeding £500 million. Crohn's disease is caused by an auto-immune response and affects any part of the digestive tract, most commonly the last segment of the small bowel (the terminal ileum). Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) plays a role in 3 areas: Crohn's disease diagnosis , monitoring treatment response & assessing development of complications. To evaluate the small bowel using MRI, Radiologists visually examine the scan slice-by-slice. The interpretation is time consuming and error-prone because of...

Stability of the Microbiome in IBD and IBS
In this study the investigators aim to investigate the changes of the intestinal microbiome in three different cohorts (IBD, IBS, healthy) after applying the uniform disruptive factor of osmotic diarrhea induced by macrogol. The investigators hypothesis is that ill people will show more severe changes of the microbiome than healthy people and that these changes persist longer.

Standardized Fecal Microbiota Transplantation for Crohn&Apos;s Diseases
The gut microbiota is considered to constitute a "microbial organ" which has pivotal roles in the intestinal diseases and body's metabolism. Evidence from animal and human studies strongly supports the link between intestinal bacteria and inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). Dozens of studies reported its efficacy in treatment of severe Clostridium difficile colitis. Preliminary studies using FMT for Ulcerative Colitis (UC), Crohn's diseases (CD), irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and constipation have also met with some success. However, the results on CD is very limited. This is an initial step into investigating the potential efficacy of ...

Stelara Pregnancy Exposure Registry OTIS Autoimmune Diseases in Pregnancy Project
The purpose of the OTIS Autoimmune Diseases in Pregnancy Study is to monitor planned and unplanned pregnancies exposed to certain medications, to evaluate the possible teratogenic effect of these medications and to follow live born infants for one year after birth. With respect to fetal outcome, it is important to evaluate the spectrum of outcomes that may be relevant to a medication exposure during pregnancy, and these include both easily recognizable defects which are visible at birth, as well as more subtle or delayed defects that may not be readily identifiable without special expertise and observation beyond the newborn period.

Stool Transplants to Treat Refractory Clostridium Difficile Colitis
It has been shown that restoration of the normal makeup of the bowel bacterial population is the most effective way to treat recurrent colitis due to Clostridium difficile. Restoration of the normal bowel bacterial population is best done by transplanting stool from a healthy donor. The investigators wish to transplant stool from healthy donors to treat recurrent C. difficile colitis by incorporating the stool into capsules that are administered by the oral route.
