Progression of Damage in Ulcerative Colitis
The hypothesis of the study is that in ulcerative colitis repeated flares of inflammatory activity, as well as mechanisms involved in resolution of the inflammatory response, may contribute to accumulation of damage in the colon leading to functional disturbances and symptoms that affect patient's functioning. The primary objective is to determine whether ulcerative colitis induces permanent anatomical damage, by means of magnetic resonance imaging.

Prospective Multicenter Randomized Comparative Study of the Treatment of de Novo Stenosis in Chron's Disease.
Stenosis is one of the most frequent complications in patients with Crohn's disease (CD), causing greater morbidity and increasing the probability of repeated surgery and short bowel syndrome (1-3). Endoscopic balloon dilation (EBD) is clearly the treatment of choice for short stenoses located at the anastomosis of previous surgeries (4-6). However, there is no scientific evidence for determining the most appropriate treatment for de novo stenosis less than 10 cm in length (surgical versus endoscopic treatment), both in terms of efficacy and complications. Neither has it been established which of these two approaches has a greater ...

Randomized Controlled Trial of Citizen-targeted Evidence-based Resources
The purpose of this study is to determine whether an online resource developed to aid health consumers in making health decisions and better support them to seek quality evidence before other evidence is effective in the context of inflammatory bowel disease and irritable bowel syndrome

Randomized Trial Comparing Single vs. Maintenance Fecal Microbiota Transplant for Refractory Crohn's Disease in Children
NCT02108821 Primary goal: -To determine the safety of fecal transplant by colonoscopy and retention enemas for induction followed by maintenance retention fecal vs. placebo enemas in children and young adults with uncomplicated mild-moderately active Crohn's disease. Secondary goals: - Assess efficacy of this induction regimen followed by maintenance fecal or placebo transplants in responders. The efficacy will be assessed by clinical evaluation and fecal calprotectin that is a non-invasive biomarker. - Correlate subject's baseline microbiome findings with likelihood for response to FMT ...

Reduce Crohn's-Associated Diarrhea With Sodium Channel Therapy
Crohn's disease is an inflammatory disorder that can affect any part of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. Some patients still experience persistent diarrhea or other symptoms such as abdominal pain even when their Crohn's disease is in remission. Diarrhea and/or abdominal pain that is not responsive to standard therapies can significantly affect a patient's quality of life and ability to work. The purpose of this study is to test the safety and effectiveness of the drug ranolazine in reducing Crohn's disease-associated diarrhea and other symptoms. Ranolazine is approved by the US Food & Drug Administration (FDA) for chronic angina (a...

Rifaximin-treatment of Collagenous Colitis
The hypothesis of this study is that an altered gut microbiota is a contributory factor in initiating an inflammatory process in the colonic mucosa leading to collagenous colitis. The investigators suggest that treatment with budesonide reduces the inflammation without treating the underlying cause. In this trial the investigators will try to modullate gut microbiota by adding rifaximin. The aim of this study is to assess if 4 weeks treatment with rifaximin as a supplement to a standard course of budesonide against active CC can reduce the risk of relapse after treatment cessation.

Safety and Efficacy of Artesunate & Curcumin in Crohn's Disease
This is a single center phase 2a, randomised double-blind, placebo-controlled factorial design, proof of concept trial. Patients with Crohn's disease who are on an adequate dose of azathioprine and still continue to active disease (CDAI > 150 and c-reactive protein > 6) will be enrolled. Forty patients will be randomised in a 1:1:1:1 ratio into 4 groups in a 2x2 factorial design to receive artesunate 200 mg PO daily for 2 weeks and / or Curcumin 2 gm PO daily for 3 months or placebo. Treatment Curcumin x 13 weeks Placebo C x 13 weeks Artesunate x 2 weeks Group 1 Group 2 Placebo A x 2 weeks Group 3 Group 4 During the treatment period and ...

Safety and Efficacy of Heterologous FMT by SQIMC-md Capsule in Mild-moderate Ulcerative Colitis Patients
This study aims to assess the safety and efficacy of heterologous fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) by Standardized Quantitative multi-donor Intestinal Microbiota Capsule (SQIMC-md) in mild-moderate ulcerative colitis patients who fail to achieve clinical remission over 4 weeks after full dose 5-Aminosalicylic acid(5-ASA). Intestinal microbiota transplant for FMT will be prepared from multiple healthy donors and prepared by standardized procedure with fixed quantitative dosage. This strategy might offer a novel and safe therapeutic approach for these patients before step up to corticosteroid, immunosuppressant or biologics...

Safety Evaluation of ABX464 in Patients With Moderate to Severe Active Crohn's Disease
This Phase IIa study is a 16-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized study aiming at evaluating the safety and the efficacy of ABX464 given once a day (o.d) at 50 mg in subjects with moderate to severe active Crohn's Disease who have inadequate response, loss of response, or intolerance to prior amino-salicylates, immunosuppressant treatment, biologics, and/or corticosteroid treatment, and followed by a 4 weeks period of follow-up after the last study drug intake.
