Ulcerative Colitis

Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a term used to describe disorders that cause long-term inflammation in the digestive tract. Symptoms include stomach pain, diarrhea, and bleeding. Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis are the 2 main types of IBD. Researchers want to conduct a natural history study to learn more about whether genetic factors can cause IBD; how immune cells contribute to IBD; and how diet, drugs, and disease affect those cells. Objective: To better understand IBD over time. Eligibility: Adults aged 18 to 85 years with Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, or another IBD. Their healthy relatives are also needed. Design: Affected participants will have clinic visits every 6 months for 3 years. Once a year, they will have these procedures: A physical exam with blood and stool samples. Ultrasound of the abdomen. A wand will be rolled over the skin. It uses sound waves to capture images of the intestines. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan. They will lie on a table that slides into a tube. Magnetic fields will capture images of the intestines. Colonoscopy. A long, flexible tube with a video camera will be inserted into the rectum to view the entire colon. Up to 12 tissue samples may be taken. Upper endoscopy, for those with Crohn's disease. A long, thin tube with a camera will be inserted through the mouth and into the first part of the small intestine. Up to 12 small tissue samples may be taken. Questionnaires. Participants will answer questions about their disease and their diet. Midyear visits will include a physical exam, blood and stool collection, ultrasound, and questionnaires Healthy relatives will have 1 blood draw for genetic tests.

The purpose of this protocol is to evaluate the efficacy of MK-8690 in participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis. The primary hypothesis is that MK-8690 is superior to placebo with respect to the proportion of participants achieving clinical remission per Modified Mayo Score at Week 12.

The main purpose of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of LY4268989 when given with mirikizumab compared to mirikizumab alone in adult participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC). Study participation will last approximately 118 weeks, including 104 weeks of treatment and may include up to 21 visits.

The main purpose of this study is to show whether in these individuals, treatment with both mirikizumab and tirzepatide, compared with treatment with mirikizumab and placebo, leads to decrease or disappearance of UC symptoms, and loss of at least one-tenth of the overall body weight. Participation in this study will last up to 61 weeks, including 52 weeks of treatment.

This is a multinational, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase 3 induction study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of duvakitug in participants with moderately to severely active Ulcerative Colitis (UC). Study details include: The study duration may be up to 35 weeks with: * Screening period * 12-week Sub-Study 1 (Single-Arm Open-Label Feeder Induction) or Sub-Study 2 (Pivotal Induction) * 12-week Sub-Study 3 (Extended Induction for non-responders) * 45 days follow-up visit for participants who do not enroll into the maintenance study (EFC18359) The treatment duration will be up to 12 weeks in each sub-study. The number of scheduled on-site visits will be up to 8 for the Sub-Study 1 and Sub Study 2 or a maximum of 15 visits for participants completing extended induction.

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a type of inflammatory bowel disease that causes inflammation and bleeding from the lining of the rectum and colon (large intestine). This study will assess how Risankizumab moves through the body as well as how safe and effective it is in treating pediatric participants with moderate to severely active UC. Adverse events and change in disease activity will be assessed. Risankizumab is an approved medication for moderate to severe UC in multiple countries and is being developed for the treatment of UC in pediatrics. This study is comprised of 3 cohorts that may participate in 3 substudies (SS). Cohort 1 will enroll participants with ages from 6 to less than 18 years. Cohort 2 will enroll participants with ages from 2 to less than 6 years. Cohort 3 will enroll participants with ages from 2 to less than 18 years. SS1 is an open-label induction period where participants will receive a weight-based induction regimen of risankizumab. SS2 is a double-blind maintenance period where participants will be randomized to receive 1 of 2 doses of weight-based maintenance regimen of risankizumab. SS3 is an open-label extension period where participants will receive risankizumab based off of their response in SS2. Around 120 pediatric participants with UC will be enrolled at around 80 sites worldwide. Participants in SS1 will receive risankizumab intravenously during the 12-week induction period. Participants in SS2 will receive risankizumab subcutaneously during the 52-week randomized maintenance period. Participants in SS3 will receive risankizumab subcutaneously during the 208-week open label period. Participants will be followed-up for approximately 140 days. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.

Adults between 18 and 80 years of age with ulcerative colitis can participate in this study. This is a study for people for whom previous treatment was not successful or who stopped previous treatment. The purpose of this study is to find out whether BI 3032950 helps people with ulcerative colitis. This study has 2 parts. In Part A, participants get BI 3032950 as an infusion into a vein every 4 weeks. After 12 weeks, doctors check whether the signs and symptoms of ulcerative colitis have improved. Before the results of this assessment are available, participants move on to Part B and get BI 3032950 as an injection under the skin. Participants whose results show clinical response after 12 weeks can continue treatment with BI 3032950. They get BI 3032950 injections under the skin every 4 weeks for up to 2 years. Participants visit their doctors every 4 weeks. During these visits, the doctors check the signs and symptoms of ulcerative colitis. This includes taking blood and stool samples. Doctors also do endoscopies. This is a procedure that uses a tube with a camera to look inside the body. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.

This is an expanded access program (EAP) for eligible participants. This program is designed to provide access to upadacitinib prior to approval by the local regulatory agency. Availability will depend on territory eligibility. A medical doctor must decide whether the potential benefit outweighs the risk of receiving an investigational therapy based on the individual patient's medical history and program eligibility criteria.

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 3 maintenance study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of duvakitug in participants with moderately to severely active Ulcerative Colitis (UC). Study details include: The study duration may be up to 286 weeks including: * 40-week Pivotal Maintenance Sub-Study * 240-week Open-Label Extension (OLE) Sub-Study * 45-day Follow-up Visit Note: For the participants who do not enroll into OLE Sub-Study, the duration will be up to 46 weeks, including the 40-week maintenance period and a 45-day follow-up visit. The treatment duration may be up to 280 weeks including: * 40 weeks in Pivotal Maintenance Sub-Study * 240 weeks in OLE Sub-Study The total number of on-site visit will be up to 32: * 21 visits in the Pivotal Maintenance Sub-Study. * 11 visits in the OLE Sub-Study.

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a type of inflammatory bowel disease that causes inflammation and bleeding from the lining of the rectum and colon (large intestine). This study will assess the change in disease activity of risankizumab treatment in adult participants with moderate to severe UC in real-world clinical practice. Risankizumab is an approved drug for treating participants with ulcerative colitis. Approximately 200 participants who are prescribed risankizumab by their physician in accordance with local label will be enrolled in approximately 30 sites across Japan. Participants will receive risankizumab as prescribed by their physician according to their routine clinical practice and local label. Participants will be followed for up to 156 weeks. There is expected to be no additional burden for participants in this trial. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic according to their routine clinical practice.

Ulcerative Colitis (UC) and Crohn's Disease (CD) are long-term conditions in the gut that can cause diarrhea, swelling (inflammation), bleeding from the anus, and belly pain. The main aim of this study is to check for how many participants with UC and CD signs and symptoms disappear after 3.5 months (14 weeks) of treatment with Vedolizumab (this is called remission). Participants will be treated with Vedolizumab for approximately 1 year (50 weeks). During the first 1.5 months (6 weeks), participants will receive Vedolizumab as an infusion in the vein (called intravenously). After this, participants will receive Vedolizumab as an injection under the skin (called subcutaneously) for the rest of the treatment. Participants for whom the treatment does not seem to work well after 3.5 months (14 weeks) will stop treatment with Vedolizumab and can change to another treatment and also there will be additional required visits at 6 months (26 weeks) and at 1 year (52 weeks). All participants will be checked again 4.5 months (18 weeks) after their last treatment with Vedolizumab. During the study, participants will visit their study clinic several times.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of filgotinib as a treatment for UC in children and adolescents aged from 8 to less than 18 years. Approximately 80 subjects from 8 to \<18 years of age with moderately to severely active UC, including a minimum of 8 subjects from 8 to \<12 years of age, will be enrolled in this study. During the study, eligible subjects will take the investigational product (IP) on-site at Week 4, Week 10, and Week 22 (in the morning; with or without food). On all other days, subjects will take IP at home (in the morning; with or without food). Subjects who do not achieve mMCS remission and/or MCS response at Week 10 will continue with induction treatment until Week 22. Subjects who do not achieve PUCAI remission at Week 22 will be permanently discontinued from the study. Subjects will all receive a filgotinib dose targeting the same systemic exposure as that observed in adults with UC treated with 200 mg q.d.

The main aim of this study is to learn about the effect of treatment with vedolizumab IV (vedolizumab) together with tofacitinib in adults with moderate and severe ulcerative colitis (UC). Another aim is to learn about treatment with Vedolizumab alone after the double treatment. All participants will receive vedolizumab together with tofacitinib for 8 weeks and will be checked for response. Participants who show a response to the treatment after 8 weeks will be treated with vedolizumab alone for an additional 44 weeks. Each participant will be followed up for at least 26 weeks after the last dose of vedolizumab.

The purpose of this study is to analyse effectiveness and safety signals of current treatment strategies in routine practice for patients with pediatric-onset inflammatory bowel disease (PIBD) and to correlate this to their individual risk factors.

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term efficacy of mirikizumab in pediatric participants with ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn's disease (CD). The study will last about 172 weeks and may include up to 44 visits. Additional treatment may be available to participants via a Continued Access Period.

This study will investigate in patients with Crohn s disease and ulcerative colitis how the body s immune system controls inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract (stomach and intestines)-specifically, how lymphocytes (a type of white blood cell) function in inflammatory responses. This protocol does not involve any experimental treatments. Patients between the ages of 0 and 75 years of age with Crohn s disease or ulcerative colitis or symptoms of inflammatory bowel disease may be eligible for this study. Screening tests may include the following: medical history and physical examination, routine blood tests, examination of stool specimens, X-rays such as barium enema or upper GI series, proctosigmoidoscopy, colonoscopy, gastroduodenoscopy, and small bowel biopsy. Participants will receive medical treatment according to the best generally accepted measures for treating Crohn s disease or ulcerative colitis. This may include anti-inflammatory drugs, immunosuppressive drugs, and antibiotics to treat infections. A surgical consultation may be recommended for patients whose disease does not respond to medical treatment. If surgery to remove intestinal tissue is recommended, a qualified gastrointestinal surgeon will perform the procedure. In addition, participants may undergo the following procedures: * Blood drawing - No more than 450 milliliters (30 tablespoons, or 15 ounces) of blood will be taken from adults over a 6-week period. A maximum of 7 ml (1/2 tablespoon) of blood per kilogram (2.2. pounds) of body weight will be obtained from children within the same time period, with no more than 3 ml/kg taken at any one time. * Leukapheresis - This procedure is done to collect large quantities of white blood cells. Whole blood is collected through a needle in an arm vein, similar to donating blood. The blood is circulated through a machine that separates it into its components, and the white cells are removed. The rest of the blood is returned to the body, either through the same needle or through another needle in the other arm. * Intestinal biopsies - Intestinal tissue will be obtained during colonoscopy with intestinal biopsy in patients who require this procedure as part of their standard medical care. Patients are given a sedative to reduce anxiety, but are conscious during the procedure. A flexible tube is inserted into the rectum and large intestine, allowing the physician to see the intestinal mucosa. At various places, small pieces of tissue are plucked out.

Ulcerative colitis is a long-lasting condition that causes swelling and sores in the large intestine. This study tests whether a small device placed under the skin can help reduce bowel urgency in people with ulcerative colitis. The investigational device sends mild signals to a nerve near the tailbone. It is placed during a same-day procedure.

The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness and safety of a strategy of switching to an alternative targeted immunomodulator (TIM) therapy to treat to a target of endoscopic remission, versus continuing index TIM in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) (Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis \[UC\]) in symptomatic remission with moderate to severe endoscopic inflammation despite optimization of index TIM in a real-world setting.

The central objective of this proposal is to test a novel diet capable of meeting the elevated protein requirements in ulcerative colitis (UC), while simultaneously decreasing microbial hydrogen sulfide (H2S) production in the colon with fiber.

The main aim of this study is to learn how the body of a child or teenager with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn's disease (CD) processes vedolizumab (pharmacokinetics) given just under the skin subcutaneously (SC). The participants will be treated with vedolizumab for up to 34 weeks. During the study, participants will visit their study clinic several times.

This phase Ib trial studies the side effects of nivolumab and to see how well it works alone and in combination with other treatments, such as ipilimumab, cabozantinib, platinum containing therapy, and fluoropyrimidine, in treating patients with autoimmune disorders and cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced), to other places in the body (metastatic) or cannot removed by surgery (unresectable). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Cabozantinib blocks certain proteins, which may help keep tumor cells from growing. It may also prevent the growth of new blood vessels that tumors need to grow. Cabozantinib is a type of tyrosine kinase inhibitor and a type of angiogenesis inhibitor. Chemotherapy drugs, such as platinum containing therapies and fluoropyrimidine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving nivolumab alone and in combination with other treatments, including ipilimumab, cabozantinib, platinum containing therapy, or fluoropyrimidine, may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective in treating patients with autoimmune disorders and advanced, metastatic, or unresectable cancer.

The main purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of eltrekibart and mirikizumab in adult participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC).

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of RO7837195 compared with placebo in participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis for whom prior treatment with conventional and/or advanced therapies has failed.

Probiotics are live microorganisms that provide health benefits when consumed in sufficient amounts. Traditional probiotics, mainly from the Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium genera, originate from fermented foods or the human gut and are widely used in supplements. Although considered safe and easy to produce, they are not specifically designed to treat diseases, and no official health claims have been approved by EFSA. Advances in microbiome research have led to the discovery of Next-Generation Probiotics (NGPs), which are newly identified gut microbes associated with health and offer promising therapeutic potential despite lacking a long history of safe use.

The purpose of this research study is to test the efficacy and safety of the study intervention, CurQD or placebo (non-active pill), in combination with vedolizumab prescribed as standard of care for patients with ulcerative colitis (UC)..
