Personalized Infliximab Induction Strategy With Model-informed Dosing in Patients With Crohn's Disease

Conditions

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

Approximately 3 million people in the United States are living with inflammatory bowel disease, which includes Crohn's Disease, with many of those being young children and adolescents. Physicians need better ways to inform decisions on treatment. The main reason for this research study is to determine if a computer program that formulates a dose based on a patient's blood testing results can better achieve the optimal drug level as compared to standard dosing.
