R-3750 in Patients With Mild to Moderate Ulcerative Colitis

The goal of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of orally taken probiotic (R-3750) in patients with mild to moderate ulcerative colitis. Patients will take an oral dosage of probiotic (R-3750) and provide patient-reported and physician scored measures of their colitis. Blood and fecal evaluations of inflammation and assessment of probiotic (R-3750) on fecal levels will also be measured.

Study of Novel Therapeutics for Acute Remedy of Colitis

This study is a clinical trial being done to investigate the efficacy of drug BRS201 as a treatment in patients with acute ulcerative colitis. Patients who qualify are adults who have not responded to treatments for their severe ulcerative colitis. Participation in this study will take 12 weeks long and the study is structured as an open-label pilot study in which participants will take the study drug for 4 weeks in the form of an oral medication. Participation may also involve receiving an IV dose of the medication. The study will require participants to attend 8 study visits, all of which will be conducted at a study site. Participation will involve taking an oral medication twice daily, tracking the medication in a log, and getting blood drawn and giving a stool and urine sample for a few lab tests throughout the study. Participants may also undergo a flexible sigmoidoscopy at the beginning and end of the study.

Combination of Diet and Oral Budesonide for Ulcerative Colitis

The ReDUCE Trial is a multinational single-blinded randomized controlled trial in mild to moderate flare of Ulcerative colitis (UC) disease patients. The purpose of the study is to validate the clinical efficacy of the UCED (Ulcerative colitis Exclusion Diet) with partial enteral nutrition (PEN) using a novel formula. The investigators anticipate that adding a novel specifically designed dietary intervention in addition to drug will lead to superior remission and mucosal healing via changes in the microbiome.

Understanding Ozanimod's MOA Via Mass Cytometry in Ulcerative Colitis

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the mechanism of action of ozanimod in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC). The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Prospectively assess the effects of ozanimod on the cellular composition of intestinal lamina propria and blood by deep immunophenotyping (CyTOF) of immune cell subsets prior and after the drug's administration. 2. Determine whether changes in cell subsets observed via mass cytometry correlate with with clinical or histologic parameters of disease activity. Colonic biopsies and peripheral blood samples will be collected from patients with UC before and after the onset of ozanimod. Researchers will compare intestinal and peripheral leukocytes before and after the drug's administration.
