Mini-MARVEL - Mitochondrial Antioxidant Therapy in Ulcerative Colitis
Mini-MARVEL study, children and young people with an active flare of UC requiring either the start of or an increase in existing mesalazine therapy will be given either MitoQ or placebo as a daily capsule for 24 weeks in the Mini-MARVEL M arm of the study. Those children and young people with an active flare of UC requiring the start of an oral steroid course will be given either MitoQ or placebo as a daily capsule for 24 weeks in the Mini- MARVEL S arm of the study, Further, newly diagnosed children and young people with UC can have either MitoQ or placebo as a daily capsule for 24 weeks with their newly started mesalazine therapy in the ...

Multi-interventional Program to Reduce Chronic Ileoanal Pouch Leaks in UC
The objective of this quality improvement project is to increase the one year anastomotic integrity rate in patients having had completion proctectomy and pouch reconstruction for Ulcerative Colitis by the routine and quality controlled implementation of a multi-interventional program thereby improving long-term pouch function and survival.

N-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids Prevent Postoperative Recurrence of Crohn's Disease
Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic recurrent intestinal inflammation involving the whole digestive tract, with high disability rate, high surgical rate and high recurrent rate postoperatively. Preventing postoperative recurrence in CD patients is an important clinical problem needed urgent intervention. Azathioprine (AZA) and infliximab (IFX) effectively prevent postoperative recurrence in CD patients, but the postoperative recurrence rate is still as high as 41%. Oral supplement of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFA) owns the advantages of high compliance and low economic cost. We aim to evaluate the effect of routine ...

Oral Fecal Microbiota Transplantation in Pediatric Ulcerative Colitis
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether FMT by frozen stool capsules in pediatric UC patients in remission after corticosteroid treatment, can modify their dysbiotic gut microbiota by increasing the richness of their microbiota at 6 months.

Pharmacokinetic Infliximab Data in Pediatric Crohn's Disease
Rationale: Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic, debilitating inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) which is diagnosed during childhood in up to one in ten patients. The use of anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α agents has significantly ameliorated CD management. Infliximab (IFX) is the first anti-TNF-α agent registered for pediatric CD. The current dosing recommendation of IFX is extrapolated from adult studies, and it is a weight-based dose (5 mg/kg) delivered during induction (infusion at weeks 0, 2, and 6) and maintenance (every 8 weeks). However, pediatric patients have a 25-40% lower drug exposure compared to adults, particularly ...

Phase II Study of Hemay005 in Patients With Active Ulcerative Colitis
This study is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind study. There are three dosage groups: Hemay005 45 mg BID group, 60 mg BID group or placebo group, with 36 patients in each dosage group. All patients will enter a 12-week double-blind treatment period. All subjects who have received the investigational drug should be subjected to a 4-week observation after the end of treatment.

Preoperative Nutrition for Crohn's Disease Patients
The investigator hypothesizes that compliance to Exclusive enteral nutrition (EEN) will be high among patients on an operation for their bowel disease, compared to the compliance rate seen in the general Crohn's Disease (CD) population. Also,the investigator hypothesizes that clinical outcomes would improve, and post-operative complication rate will be reduces in malnourished CD patients receiving pre-operative 4 weeks EEN during the 4 weeks post-surgery, compared to CD patients receiving high energy and protein diet without EEN.

Prevention of Postoperative Endoscopic Recurrence With Endoscopy-driven Versus Systematic Biological Therapy
With this prospective, randomized, multicentre, parallel group pragmatic non-inferiority trial, the investigators will evaluate if endoscopy-driven introduction of biological therapy is not leading to more postoperative endoscopic recurrence at week 86 compared to systematic prophylactic biological therapy in patients with CD undergoing an ileocolonic resection with ileocolonic anastomosis. Secondary analyses will include influence on clinical, biological and surgical CD recurrence, serious adverse events, direct costs, work productivity, and quality of life. If the investigators can demonstrate the non-inferiority of an ...

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 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 ...
