Fasting-mimicking diet test for ulcerative colitis
This study tests whether a “fasting-mimicking diet” can improve mild to moderate ulcerative colitis. You would follow the study diet plan and be monitored to see if symptoms and disease activity change.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18–70 - NCT03787771Recruiting
Fecal transplant registry for donors and recipients
This is a registry that collects information from adults who either receive fecal microbiota transplant (FMT) or plan to receive it, and from people who have donated—or plan to donate—stool for FMT. It helps researchers understand who participates in these gut-microbiome treatments in real life.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT03855657Recruiting
Biobank study of gut microbes, genes, and blood chemistry
This study collects samples to learn how gut microbes, genetics, and body chemistry may relate to Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis. Your information and samples may help researchers understand disease patterns, but it does not test a new drug.
Hong KongAges 18 years+ - NCT03894228Recruiting
Study of Crohn’s and colitis medicines during pregnancy and breastfeeding
This registry study tracks outcomes for mothers with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and their babies during pregnancy and breastfeeding while using IBD medicines. It aims to better understand the safety of these medicines so future pregnancies can be managed more confidently.
Santiago de Compostela, A CoruñaAges 18 years+ - NCT03913962Recruiting
Exercise study for children with chronic or autoimmune conditions
This study looks at how physical activity affects muscle, metabolism (how your body uses energy), and body composition in children with certain chronic or autoimmune conditions. It may help doctors understand what types of exercise and monitoring are most beneficial and safe.
Clermont-FerrandAges 6–18 - NCT04401605Recruiting
Fermented foods diet for ulcerative colitis symptoms
This study tests whether adding fermented foods to your diet can improve symptoms of ulcerative colitis. It also looks at people with intestinal inflammation markers to see if diet changes may help them feel better.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04896684Recruiting
Study collecting gut health information from adults’ scans
This study is looking at people who need an intestinal scope (endoscopy) for gut symptoms or bowel conditions like IBS, IBD, or possible colorectal cancer. Your results may help doctors better understand these long-term conditions and improve follow-up care.
ToulouseAges 18–99 - NCT04995224Recruiting
Study what causes long-term pain in new Crohn’s or colitis
This study looks at why some people develop long-term pain after being newly diagnosed with ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease. It may help researchers understand the pain process and improve future treatments.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT05003947RecruitingPhase 1
Stem cell infusion for Crohn’s or ulcerative colitis safety
This Phase 1 trial tests whether an IV infusion of donated (allogeneic) stem cells is safe in people with Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis. It focuses mainly on safety and tolerability, and it may offer a new treatment approach if you qualify.
St John'sAges Any age - NCT05456893Recruiting
Testing blood and stool markers in active ulcerative colitis treatments
This study checks biomarkers (signals in blood and/or stool) in adults with moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis. It compares patients starting targeted medicines and looks for marker patterns that may reflect how the disease is behaving.
Nancy, LorraineAges 18 years+ - NCT05574387RecruitingPhase 2
Metformin added to treatment for ulcerative colitis
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding metformin to usual care can help people with mild to moderate ulcerative colitis. The goal is to see if it improves symptoms and disease control compared with standard therapy alone.
Al MansurahAges 18–75 - NCT05575505RecruitingPhase 2
Pentoxifylline added to ulcerative colitis treatment
This trial tests whether adding the medicine pentoxifylline to standard care can help people with ulcerative colitis. It’s designed to see if this combination improves symptoms by changing inflammation.
Al MansurahAges 18–75 - NCT05628701Recruiting
Testing two UC surgery reconstructions after colectomy
This trial compares two ways of reconnecting the bowel after subtotal colectomy and ileostomy in people with ulcerative colitis (UC). It may help determine which surgical option works best when the rectum is calm enough to manage with topical mesalazine alone.
GothenburgAges 18–60 - NCT05912387RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing statin treatment in primary sclerosing cholangitis
This early study looks at how a statin (cholesterol-lowering medicine) affects people with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) by measuring changes using multiple types of health data. It may help researchers understand which people benefit and how PSC biology changes with treatment.
Stanford, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT06165029Recruiting
Ultrasound score to predict anti-TNF success in IBD
This study tests whether an ultrasound score (called VAT) combined with another ultrasound score (IUS) can predict how well anti-TNF medications (like infliximab) work for people with inflammatory bowel disease. If you are starting a new anti-TNF treatment, this study may help doctors understand if the medication will be effective for you.
Changsha, HunanAges 18–80 - NCT06186752Recruiting
Action planning test for teens with IBD
This study tests if a planning tool helps teenagers with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis manage their condition. It's for patients aged 13 to 19 who have had their diagnosis for at least 3 months and are seen at UNC.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 13–19 - NCT06286709RecruitingPhase 2
Fecal transplant for PSC and colitis
This trial tests whether a fecal (stool) transplant from a healthy donor can help people with both PSC and inflammatory bowel disease. It aims to see if the treatment can improve liver health and reduce inflammation. You must have early to moderate liver scarring and be on stable medications.
BirminghamAges 18 years+ - NCT06287671Recruiting
Colorectal Surgery Tissue Study for Better Understanding of Disease
