Ulcerative Colitis Clinical Trials in Columbus, OH

This is a multicenter, randomized, placebo controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ABX464 given at 25 or 50 mg QD in inducing clinical remission in subjects with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis who have inadequate response, no response, a loss of response, or an intolerance to either conventional therapies [corticosteroids, immunosuppressant (i.e. azathioprine, 6-mercaptopurine, methotrexate)] and/or advanced therapies [biologics (TNF inhibitors, anti-integrins, anti-IL-23), and/or S1P receptor modulators, and/or JAK inhibitors].

This is a multicenter, randomized study to evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of ABX464 50mg and 25mg administered once daily (QD) as maintenance therapy in subjects with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis who have inadequate response, no response, a loss of response, or an intolerance to either conventional therapies [corticosteroids, immunosuppressant (i.e. azathioprine, 6-mercaptopurine, methotrexate)] and/or advanced therapies [biologics (TNF inhibitors, anti-integrins, anti-IL-23), and/or S1P receptor modulators, and/or JAK inhibitors]. This study is the maintenance phase of both previous induction studies ABX464-105 and ABX464-106. All eligible subjects who have completed either one of the induction studies above mentioned, will be given the opportunity to take part in the present ABX464-107 maintenance study and will be randomized to either a double blind, placebo-controlled part (Part #1) or allocated to ABX464 50mg or 25mg open label treatment arms (Part #2) depending on their clinical response at the end of induction. This study consists of a 44-week treatment phase and a 28-days follow-up period consisting in the End of Study (EOS) visit. Read Less

This phase Ib trial studies the side effects of nivolumab and to see how well it works in treating patients with autoimmune disorders and cancer that has spread to other places in the body or cannot removed by surgery. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Read Less

TARGET-IBD is a 5-year, longitudinal, observational study of adult and pediatric patients (age 2 and above) being managed for Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) in usual clinical practice. TARGET-IBD will create a research registry of patients with IBD within academic and community real-world practices in order to assess the safety and effectiveness of current and future therapies.

Randomized, placebo-controlled dose-ranging study of 2'-FL in IBD, Crohn's Disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). The overarching hypothesis is that 2'-FL supplementation in IBD will be safe and well tolerated, while increasing fecal Bifidobacterium abundance and butyrate in a dose dependent manner. The investigators will test 1, 5, or 10 gm 2'-FL compared to 2 gm dextrose placebo as a daily dietary supplement in pediatric and young adult IBD participants in stable remission receiving infliximab, adalimumab, or infliximab-dyyb biosimilar anti-TNF therapy.

This study is a multi-site randomized controlled clinical trial evaluating the efficacy of a peer mentoring program for improving the self-management of youth with IBD. The primary outcomes are youth QOL and functioning in typical life activities. Secondary outcomes are disease outcomes, including disease severity and clinical outcomes (hospital admissions, clinic appointments, missed appointments, procedures). Mentor and parent QOL will also be assessed as secondary outcomes. Mechanisms that may contribute to the effects of the Mentoring Program will be investigated: Parent and child self-efficacy, illness uncertainty, coping, social support and child perceived stigma. Sex will be explored as a moderator. A total of 200 youth and their parents and 100 mentors will be enrolled. Eligibility criteria for youth include age 10-17 years, parent and child English fluency, and no documented neurodevelopmental disorder or history of hospitalization for a psychiatric or behavioral disorder. Mentors will be ≥16 years, ≥1 year post-diagnosis of IBD and managing their IBD well. They will be rigorously screened via online application, interview, checks of references, driving records, and social media, background check, and successful completion of a 3-hour training. Youth will be randomly assigned to the Mentoring Program or an "Educational Activity" comparison group, with baseline assessments occurring prior to randomization. Follow-up assessments will occur post-intervention and 6 months later. The Mentoring Program consists of year-long, 1:1 mentee-mentor relationships with group educational activities, online educational information, and a parent support component. Mentors and mentees are expected to have weekly contact (e.g., text, phone), with in-person contact 1 - 2 times per month. Group activities target self-management skills through experiential opportunities, modeling, and direct instruction. Educational topics include nutrition, stress, IBD and school, and disease management, and are taught by experts in each content area. They also provide opportunities to socialize with other mentors and mentees: lunch and games are provided before or after the educational event. The Educational Activity comparison group consists of separate educational group events on the same topics (with no social time), educational information posted online, and monthly encouragement to engage in activities in the community.
