Assessment of Anorectal Function in Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Active inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) causes disabling symptoms such as diarrhea, involuntary loss of bowel control, abdominal pain and urges to pass stool. However, even patients with inactive IBD frequently experience such symptoms. The cause is not well understood and the functionality of the bowel in IBD patients is underexplored. Earlier studies show a wide range of results, but most find that patients with IBD in remission are up to four times as likely to report gastrointestinal symptoms when compared to healthy controls. Chronic inflammation may cause changes of the bowel wall, like increased collagen deposits ...

A Study Evaluating the Effect of Filgotinib Dose De-escalation in Participants With Ulcerative Colitis (UC) in Remission
Participants who are in clinical remission on 200 mg filgotinib once daily (q.d.) for at least 2 consecutive quarterly visits in the ongoing SELECTION-LTE study (GS-US-418-3899, NCT02914535), are planned to be rolled over and randomized in this study. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of filgotinib in participants in stable clinical remission on 200 mg filgotinib q.d. for whom the dose was decreased to 100 mg q.d. compared to participants remaining on 200 mg q.d.

A Study of CDPATH™ to Help Manage and Treat Crohn's Disease
CDPATH™ is a tool to help predict the potential for developing Crohn's disease related complications in certain adult participants within 3 years. The main aim of the study is to explore the use of CDPATH™ to describe a participant's risk profile and to have discussions with their doctor about the potential path of their Crohn's disease. The number of visits will be decided by the study clinic according to their standard practice.
