Switching to guselkumab for inflammatory bowel disease after ustekinumab
This trial tests whether switching from the drug ustekinumab to another drug called guselkumab can help people with active inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) who didn't get enough benefit from ustekinumab. It focuses on people with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis who still have signs of inflammation in their gut.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT07223424RecruitingPhase 2
Patient preference study: shot vs infusion for immunotherapy
This study compares two ways to take immunotherapy drugs (nivolumab or pembrolizumab): as a shot under the skin (subcutaneous) versus an infusion into a vein (intravenous). It looks at which method patients prefer and is for people with certain advanced cancers where these drugs are already approved.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07224113Recruiting
Reducing ultra-processed foods in teens with IBD
This study looks at whether a simple educational program can help teens with IBD eat less ultra-processed foods (like fast food and sugary snacks). Participants will learn about healthier food choices during their regular infusion visits.
Hartford, ConnecticutAges 10–21 - NCT07229950RecruitingPhase 2
Experimental tablet for moderate to severe Ulcerative Colitis
This trial tests an experimental tablet, HRS-7085, for people with moderate to severe Ulcerative Colitis who haven't gotten enough help from standard treatments. The goal is to see if the drug can reduce inflammation and improve symptoms.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–75 - NCT05615779Recruiting
Personalized fiber (B-fructan) diet for inflammatory bowel disease
This trial tests whether a tailored diet high in B-fructans can improve inflammatory bowel disease (ulcerative colitis or IBD-unclassified) in people in mild-to-moderate remission. It may help your gut and reduce bowel inflammation, and it involves colonoscopy and sample collection.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 6–39 - NCT07216014RecruitingPhase 4
IL-23 antibody for inflammatory bowel disease
This trial tests a new antibody drug (IL-23 inhibitor) for people with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective. You may be able to join if you have moderate to severe disease and have not had certain bowel surgeries or infections.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–65 - NCT07198113Recruiting
Comparing newer treatments for pediatric inflammatory bowel disease
This study is for children and teens with inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn's, colitis, or indeterminate) whose previous anti-TNF medicine stopped working. It compares several newer treatments to see which works best.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 1–18 - NCT07191106Recruiting
Remote exercise program for inflammatory bowel disease
This study tests whether a remote exercise program, done at home using an app, can improve quality of life for people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). It may help if you are motivated to start a gentle physical activity routine and have internet access.
MontfermeilAges 18 years+ - NCT04030676Recruiting
Test for CMV reactivation risk during ulcerative colitis flare
This study checks whether a blood test (QuantiFERON-CMV, related to prior CMV infection) can predict if CMV might reactivate during a severe ulcerative colitis flare. It may help doctors spot people at higher risk and potentially guide monitoring and treatment during hospitalization.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for ulcerative colitis?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 280 recruiting ulcerative colitis studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a ulcerative colitis trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a ulcerative colitis trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
