  • Group 1 of patients will receive Adalimumab while Group 1 will receive ustekinumab

    Biological/Vaccine

    All the patients will be treated according to guidelines of ECCO/ESPGHAN and will be followed up regularly for 12 months by assessment • response to treatment Frequency of relapses, Regular assessment will be: Clinically every 2 to 4 weeks at gastroenterology outpatient clinic by using activity scoring systems: pediatric Ulcerative Colitis Activity Index pediatric Chron's Disease Activity Index Laboratory follow up will done at weeks 12,24,36,48 of starting or changing to other biological by doing inflammatory markers( CBC, ESR, CRP, albumin. At the end of study(week 48) each patient will be reassessed by: Disease activity: Laboratory Endoscopy will be repeated at week 48 of starting or changing to other biological to assess effect of biologicals on reach mucosal healing.
