Use of a Novel Diet (UC DIET) for Treatment of Mild to Moderate Active Pediatric Ulcerative Colitis
The goal of the study is to evaluate strategies that target the microbiota for the treatment of Ulcerative Colitis , This study will involve a novel diet that the investigators developed , based on the hypothesis that UC involves dysbiosis , underutilzation of certain metabolic pathways and use of pathways that increase risk of inflammation . The investigators have postulated that manipulation of colonic bacterial metabolism with this diet will induce remission in UC without involving additional immune suppression.

Use of Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Scientists hypothesize that directly or parentally injecting Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to affected areas will have a positive impact through reducing or abolishing intestinal inflammation in part via inhibition of neutrophil Myeloperoxidase (MPOx) activity. Inhibiting MPOx should modify disease progression as well as reduce colitis associated cancer risk.

Validation and Interobserver Reliability of a Simple Ultrasound Score for Crohn's Disease
Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory disease in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. It is characterized by an alternating course between remission and relapse, which necessitates subsequent adjustments in medical therapy. Thus, it is important to have suitable tools to assess disease activity, and currently the reference standard is using ileocolonoscopy. However, ileocolonoscopy causes major patient discomfort and due to logistic reasons, it cannot be performed on a regular basis. High frequency ultrasound (US) is a potentially useful tool to evaluate changes in disease activity in affected bowel segments. Although there are some...

Value of Pharmacokinetic Assays in the Prediction of Induction and Maintenance Therapeutic Response in Crohn's Disease
Vedolizumab (VDZ) is a monoclonal antibody which has shown its efficacy in Crohn's disease by inducing and maintaining clinical response/remission. The French marketing authorization was obtained for Crohn's disease in patients in failure with anti-TNF (Tumor Necrosis Factor) agents. For Crohn's disease patients treated with vedolizumab, a strong association between vedolizumab serum levels and clinical response to induction and maintenance was demonstrated by anterior studies. It could be of paramount interest to early identify Crohn's Disease patients under vedolizumab who will be responders to vedolizumab induction and to...

Vedolizumab Intravenous (IV) Dose Optimization in Ulcerative Colitis
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of vedolizumab intravenous (IV) dose optimization on mucosal healing compared with the standard vedolizumab IV dosing regimen over a 30 week treatment period in subjects with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC) and high vedolizumab clearance, based on a Week 5 predefined serum vedolizumab concentration threshold less than (<) 50 microgram per milliliter (microg/mL) and who are Week 6 non-responders based on partial Mayo score.

Vedolizumab Monotherapy Vs Combination Therapy With Tacrolimus in UC
The aim of this study is to assess if a combination therapy of tacrolimus and vedolizumab is superior to vedolizumab monotherapy for induction of remission in moderate to severe UC, and its effect on long and short-term outcomes including colectomy rate. Secondary aim of this study is to assess the safety of tacrolimus as an induction agent in patients with UC.

Vedolizumab Post Op Study
This is a pilot study that will determine the endoscopic recurrence of Crohn's disease 12 months after curative, resective ileal or ileocolonic surgery in patients receiving post-operative vedolizumab (Entyvio) or placebo. The investigators hypothesize that the administration of post-operative vedolizumab will decrease the endoscopic recurrence of Crohn's disease.

Zurich Fistula Cohort Study
This is a pro- and retrospective cohort study to evaluate the natural history and outcome of various treatment options of patients with fistula. At each clinical visit parameters describing activity of a fistula, potential underlying Crohn's disease, investigations as well as the current treatment will be entered into a database. Selected patients can also be contacted by phone in the form of a structured interview. Data will be analyzed to determine treatment outcomes, characterize the natural history as well as risk factors for complications of treatment and an unfavorable disease course. The same data will be obtained and analyzed...
