Etrasimod for teens with active ulcerative colitis
This trial tests whether etrasimod can improve ulcerative colitis (UC) symptoms in adolescents with moderate to severe, active disease. It may help reduce inflammation and disease activity, especially if current treatments aren’t working well enough.
Little Rock, ArkansasAges 12–17 - NCT05218850RecruitingPhase 2
Butyrate treatment for kids with mild-to-moderate ulcerative colitis
This trial tests whether butyrate can help children and teens with mild-to-moderate ulcerative colitis (a long-term bowel inflammation condition). You may be able to join if your symptoms fit the study level and you haven’t recently started other specific ulcerative colitis treatments right before the study begins.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 7–21 - NCT05076175RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Oral ozanimod for children with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis
This trial tests whether an oral medicine called ozanimod can improve ulcerative colitis (UC) in children whose disease is moderate to severe. It’s meant for kids who didn’t fully respond—or couldn’t tolerate—standard UC treatments.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 2–17 - NCT04791449Recruiting
Exercise program for healing diabetic foot ulcers
This study tests whether an exercise program can help wounds (ulcers) heal faster in people with diabetic foot ulcers. It mainly looks for adults with type 2 diabetes and enough blood flow to the foot, and checks safety and healing progress.
Albuquerque, New MexicoAges 20–80 - NCT04533152Recruiting
Study risk factors for healing in diabetic foot ulcers
This study looks at what factors affect outcomes in adults with diabetic foot ulcers. It may help doctors better predict healing and complications by better understanding what influences progress.
CaenAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT04372108Recruiting
Long-term safety study for ustekinumab vs other biologics
This study follows adults with Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis to compare the long-term safety of ustekinumab against other biologic medicines. It may help show how safe these treatments are over time, using medical records.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04373473RecruitingPhase 2
Oral stool treatment to prevent ulcerative colitis flare-ups
This study tests whether taking freeze-dried (lyophilized) donor stool material by mouth can help prevent ulcerative colitis from coming back or causing intestinal inflammation. Participants are in remission and stay on their usual treatment while receiving the study product.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04058639Recruiting
Custom felt dressing trial for diabetic foot ulcers
This trial tests whether a special padded (felt) dressing can help heal diabetic foot ulcers with nerve-related injury. If you have a foot wound caused by diabetic nerve problems, the study may offer a shorter treatment time.
MoldeAges 45–80 - NCT03716167Recruiting
