Crohn's Disease Clinical Trials in Los Angeles, CA

Transmural healing (TMH) is recognized as a potentially important measure of Crohn's disease (CD) activity but not a formal target. Observational studies suggest that TMH may be associated with better long-term outcomes. The study will evaluate TMH using noninvasive intestinal ultrasound (IUS), a patient-friendly technique that can be performed routinely in clinical practice. The aim of the study is to determine if treating to a target of corticosteroid-free (CS-free) IUS outcomes + clinical symptoms + biomarkers is superior to a target of clinical symptoms + biomarkers alone in achieving CS-free endoscopic remission measured by the Simple Endoscopic Score for Crohn's Disease (SES-CD). Qualified participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to one of 2 different target treatment groups. Group 1: Participants will be treated over 48 weeks to achieve a target of corticosteroid-free IUS-based outcomes + clinical remission + biomarker remission. At Week 22 and 30, the IUS-based component of the target will be IUS response and at Week 38, the final treatment target will be TMH. Group 2: Participants will be treated over 48 weeks to achieve a target of corticosteroid-free clinical remission + biomarker remission. Read Less

The main aim of this study is to learn about the effect of treatment with vedolizumab IV (vedolizumab) together with adalimumab or vedolizumab together with ustekinumab in adults with moderate to severe Crohn's Disease, and the effect of treatment with vedolizumab alone, after the dual targeted treatment. The study is conducted in two parts. In Part A, participants will receive the dual targeted treatment (vedolizumab together with either adalimumab or ustekinumab). In part B, participants will receive vedolizumab only. Part B will include participants who responded to the treatment in Part A. Each participant will be followed up for at least 26 weeks after the last dose of treatment. Read Less

Study participants will be screened during the platform study and randomly assigned to receive mirikizumab or another intervention. The purpose of the mirikizumab study is to evaluate efficacy, safety, tolerability, and how well mirikizumab absorbs into the body of pediatric participants with Crohn's disease. Study periods for the intervention-specific appendix (ISA) will be as follows: * A 12-week induction period * A maintenance period from Week 12 to Week 52, and * A safety follow-up period up to 16 weeks. The study will last about 74 weeks and may include up to 19 visits. Read Less

Vedolizumab is a medicine that helps to reduce inflammation and pain in the digestive system. In this study, children and teenagers with moderate to severe Crohn's disease will be treated with vedolizumab. The main aim of the study is to check if participants achieve remission after treatment with the vedolizumab. Remission means symptoms improve or disappear and an endoscopy shows no signs of inflammation. Participants will receive 3 infusions of vedolizumab over 6 weeks. Then, those who have a clinical response will receive either a high dose or low dose of vedolizumab once every 8 weeks. They will receive the same dose every time. Read Less

Crohn's disease (CD) is a long-lasting condition causing inflammation that can affect any part of the gut. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of TAK-279 versus placebo in participants with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease (CD). The main aim of this study is to learn if the 3 different doses of TAK-279 reduce bowel inflammation and ulcers in the bowel compared to the placebo after 12 weeks of treatment. Another aim is to compare any medical problems that participants have when they take TAK-279 or placebo and how well the participants tolerate medical problems. An endoscopy will be used to check the bowel for inflammation. The participants will be treated with TAK-279 for 52 weeks (1 year). During the study, participants will visit their study clinic 15 times. Read Less
