Development and Validation of a Comorbidity Index in Crohn's Disease

Study Purpose

Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Like other chronic diseases, patients with CD may be affected by other diseases called comorbidities. The prevalence of comorbidities in IBD patients ranges from 30 to 70 %. Unlike other chronic diseases, there is currently no CD-specific tool to assess the impact of comorbidities on patients' lives in order to take appropriate medical measures. Several clinical indexes have been developed for the study of comorbidities, including the Charlson index and the Groll index, which are widely used. The disadvantage of these indexes is that they are not adapted to patients with CD. The primary objective of this study is to develop and validate a clinical index to evaluate the impact of comorbidities on disability in patients with CD.

Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.
