This study aims to test the overall hypothesis that the membrane tissue binding capacity of cytokines in the biopsied tissue of patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) is predictive of/strongly correlated to clinical response/outcomes observed. The key questions under investigation are: Aim 1: To assess the fluorescent signal intensity at baseline (control antibody with control biopsy and control antibody with IBD biopsy). Aim 2: To characterize the cellular landscape by surveying surface markers using bar-coded antibodies and performing gene expression profiling on every cell within inflamed tissue of patients with IBD. Aim 3: Develop algorithm using artificial intelligence to predict responders versus non-responders and to further subclassify IBD patients using phenotype data.
Methodology: Randomized, double-blind, efficacy and safety study of allogeneic HB-adMSCs vs placebo for the treatment of Crohn's Disease with a 16-week treatment period and a safety and efficacy follow up period for 52 weeks post first treatment. Treatment Duration: 16 weeks General Objectives: To assess the efficacy and safety of multiple intravenous infusions of allogeneic HB-adMSCs by improving signs and symptoms of Crohn's Disease in this subject population. Number of Subjects: 46 (23 in each treatment arm) Indication: Crohn's Disease
This research study looks at how safe and effective a medicine called Mirikizumab is for treating older adults (aged 60 and above) who have moderate to severe Crohn's disease (CD) or ulcerative colitis (UC). These two conditions, known as inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), cause inflammation (swelling and irritation) in the digestive tract. Older adults with these conditions often have other health issues and face increased risks and complications, making it challenging for them to use certain treatments. Mirikizumab is already approved by the FDA for adults with IBD, but there's limited information about how well it works specifically for older adults. This study aims to fill that gap by seeing if Mirikizumab can help these patients safely manage their condition. The study plans to enroll around 150 people from various locations across the United States. Everyone participating will receive Mirikizumab according to the standard, FDA-approved guidelines. The main goal is to see how many participants achieve clinical remission, meaning their symptoms significantly improve or disappear, after 24 weeks of treatment. Researchers will also look at whether this remission lasts up to 48 weeks, how well symptoms are controlled without steroids, how treatment affects indicators of inflammation (such as blood tests), and how the participants feel overall based on their own reports. The safety of Mirikizumab will also be closely monitored throughout the study by regularly checking for any side effects. This study hopes to provide clearer information to help older adults with IBD and their doctors make better treatment decisions, ultimately improving health outcomes and quality of life.
Data collected through the registry may be used to address a range of research questions and objectives, including but not limited to the following: Research question: Is there an increased risk of adverse maternal, fetal, or infant outcomes among individuals who are exposed to Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) treatments during pregnancy? The primary objective of the registry is to estimate the prevalence of major congenital malformations among pregnant individuals with IBD who are exposed to an IBD pharmacotherapy during pregnancy. The secondary objectives of the registry are: To estimate the prevalence of other maternal, fetal, and infant outcomes among pregnant individuals with IBD who are exposed to IBD pharmacotherapies during pregnancy. To contextualize the prevalence of outcomes among pregnant individuals who are exposed to IBD pharmacotherapies during pregnancy and estimate the prevalence of all outcomes of interest among pregnant individuals with IBD who are not exposed to any IBD pharmacotherapies or an IBD pharmacotherapy of interest during pregnancy. If sample size permits, to estimate the risk ratio for each outcome, comparing the outcomes of pregnant individuals with IBD who are exposed to IBD pharmacotherapy with those who are not exposed to any IBD pharmacotherapies or an IBD pharmacotherapy of interest during pregnancy. Data collection may be used to determine pharmacotherapy-specific use with or without unexposed cohorts on an as-needed basis, as sample size allows.
This research study is testing an investigational research product called TRX103 as a possible treatment for individuals suffering from Crohn's Disease (CD). The primary purpose of this study is to learn how safe and effective different doses of TRX103 are when administered to individuals with CD.
The objective of this trial is to test whether a smartphone app, SMART-IBD, is effective in improving medication adherence and self-management skills in adolescents with IBD. The investigators will conduct a randomized control trial to compare a sample of 20 youth (ages 13-17) with IBD using an app that has educational content and medication reminders to 20 youth in an attention control group. The length of the intervention will include one month of baseline adherence data collection, one month of intervention, and one month of post-treatment adherence data collection.
To understand patient knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs around the uptake of vaccinations and malignancy screening through patient focus groups/qualitative interviews. To develop and pilot an interactive website that will provide customized recommendations for individual patients with IBD and direct them as relevant to five 60-90 second customized, animated videos (influenza, pneumococcal, and zoster vaccinations, bone health, and skin cancer screening). This content will be pilot-tested with patients to fine-tune the educational modules.
This study will enroll adult and pediatric participants across 3 phases: Research phase, Clinical Validation (CV) and Analytical Validation (AV) phase. Sites selected to participate in the study will enroll participants in the either the Research phase or CV and AV phase. Research Phase will enroll participants in Cohort 1 Pre-diagnosis/+GI symptoms only. CV and AV phase will be open to enrollment in parallel. CV phase will enroll participants in Cohort 2 Diagnosed IBD, Pre-treatment, Cohort 3 Potential Cross-Reactive Diseases and Cohort 4 Healthy controls. AV phase will enroll participants in Cohort 2 Diagnosed IBD, Pre-treatment and Cohort 4 Healthy controls. Enrollment will be ongoing until sponsor notification for closure.
This is a longitudinal, observational study that aims to identify the microbial and human molecular triggers of IBD flares via stool, saliva, and blood metatranscriptomes, whole blood proteome, and collected clinical metadata. This study is direct to participant and will not utilize clinical sites.
