Longitudinal Immunophenotyping of Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease

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.

Aquamin® for Prevention of Ulcerative Colitis J-Pouch-associate Intestinal Inflammation

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a disease that causes long-term inflammation in the digestive tract, and many people with this condition require surgery to remove the colon and create a new J-pouch for stool. Some patients develop a problem called pouchitis, where this pouch becomes inflamed. Current treatments are limited, and there are no known ways to prevent pouchitis from starting. This study is being done to find out if a natural mineral supplement called Aquamin® can help reduce inflammation and protect the gut lining in people with a J-pouch, and may reduce the risk of pouchitis. By understanding whether Aquamin® is safe and helpful, the study team hopes to find a new and better way to prevent inflammation and improve the long-term health of people with UC.

A Study to Learn More About How Risankizumab Works in Young Participants With Ulcerative Colitis

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.

A Study on Infections in Adults With Ulcerative Colitis/Crohn's Disease

More older people (more than 65 years of age) around the world are getting Ulcerative Colitis (UC) or Crohn's Disease (CD). This is happening because people are living longer and because more people overall are developing UC or CD. Medicines that treat UC/CD, however, might make it easier for older adults to get infections. The main aim of this study is to learn if there is a difference in the number and type of infections in older people when treated with either ENTYVIO or other advance medicines (TNF-alpha inhibitors or ustekinumab) that reduce swelling and pain by blocking a chemical in the body (called TNF-alpha). The study will include people aged 65 years and older UC or CD who used either ENTYVIO with ustekinumab or a TNF-alpha inhibitor between 2016 and 2025. Data will be collected from existing Medicare databases.
