Autologous Adipose-derived Stem Cells (ASCs) for the Treatment of Perianal Fistula in Crohn Disease: A Pilot Study
Crohn's disease is an immunologically mediated inflammatory bowel disease with a reported incidence of 4.0-7.0, 7.1, and 1.34 per 100,000 persons in Europe, the U.S., and Korea, respectively. Uncontrolled chronic inflammation finally causes various complications in intestine such as bowel obstruction, fistulas, abscesses, and anal fissures. The incidence of perianal fistula was reported in 13%- 39% of patients with Crohn's disease. Medical treatment for Crohn's fistulae initially focused on surgical intervention accompanied by symptomatic treatment with antibiotics and immunosuppressants. The most serious problem after surgical...

Autologous Unselected Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for Refractory Crohn's Disease
This study evaluates the safety and clinical benefits of a therapeutics approach of conditioning regimen Cyclophosphamide (Cy) + Thymoglobulin r (ATG) + Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor (G-CSF) followed by autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantaion (HSCT) rescue in therapy refractory Crohn's disease. It will be counted adverse events, clinical and endoscopic condition at various short and long-term time points.

Bacteria & Inflammation in the Gut (BIG) Study
Exclusive Enteral Nutrition (EEN) is the liquid diet given to children with active Crohn's Disease (CD). EEN has previously been shown to induce changes in major bacterial metabolites and dominant bacterial species which are more profound in children that clinically improve. This study aims to determine whether it is possible to maintain these bacterial changes with prolonged supplementary enteral nutrition (SEN) while returning to normal diet and if this can reduce risk of subsequent relapse for children with CD. New technologies will allow measurement of a broad range of bacteria and metabolites, to test if the clinical response to EEN...

Beneficial and Harmful Effects of Azathioprine and Allopurinol Versus Standard Azathioprine Therapy for Patients With Ulcerative Colitis
Azathioprine is considered first line immunomodulatory therapy for patients with ulcerative colitis. Up to 50% are treatment failures or experience adverse events leading to treatment withdrawal. Recent evidence suggests that the combination of allopurinol and low dose azathioprine increases the proportion of treatment responders and reduce the risk of adverse events. Objectives: To evaluate the beneficial and harmful effects of low dose azathioprine and allopurinol versus standard azathioprine monotherapy in patients with ulcerative colitis.

BI 655130 Induction Treatment in Patients With Moderate-to-severe Ulcerative Colitis
This trial has two sequentially enrolling parts with different objectives. The primary objectives of this trial are - to prove the concept of clinical activity of BI 655130 in patients with moderate-to-severely active ulcerative colitis who have failed previous biologic treatments and to identify efficacious and safe dose regimens in Part 1 (Phase II) - to confirm efficacy and safety of BI 655130 in patients with moderate-to-severely active ulcerative colitis who have failed previous biologic treatments in Part 2 (Phase III) - To provide, along with induction study 1368-0018 and the run-in cohort of 1368-0020,...

Biodegradable Stenting Anastomoses Versus Double-layer Hand Sutures for Reconstruction in Intestinal Anastomosis
Intestinal anastomosis plays an important role in various general surgeries, but the complications such as anastomotic leakage,stenosis and hemorrhage cannot been avoided. Although many ways are put up to solve this problem, there are still many imports need to improve. Therefore, the Biodegradable Stenting Anastomoses(BSA), which make intestinal anastomosis easily and less complications, have been produced.The major goal of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of Biodegradable Stenting Anastomoses(BSA) for reconstruction in surgery of intestinal anastomosis.

Blood and Stool Molecular Biomarkers Longitudinal Detection Study in Crohn's Disease (CD) Patients
To evaluate the relationship between noninvasive biomarkers (patient serological markers and metagenomic analysis of stool) and disease status as determined by colonoscopy and by clinical symptoms in patients with Crohn's disease, and to evaluate whether changes in the biomarker levels over time correlate to changes in the state of patients' disease.

Bowel Preparation for Magnetic Resonance Enterography
Adequate bowel preparation is required for magnetic resonance enterography (MRE) which can be achieved by two methods including administering contrast solution after mid-gut tubing and taking contrast solution orally. We present the design of randomized controlled trial to compare the efficacy and compliance of bowel preparation through mid-gut tubing with taking contrast orally for MRE in patients with Crohn's disease (CD).
