Genetics and health profile study for early severe bowel disease
Treatments studied
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at how an early-onset bowel illness looks and what genetic changes may be involved. It may help researchers better understand inherited causes and improve future care for families affected by these conditions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You (or the person you care for) have a severe, long-lasting bowel problem
- First symptoms started by age 6, and especially by age 2
- If symptoms started later, you may still qualify if there’s a strong family history of inherited genetic changes
- Alternatively, you may qualify if you’re a family member (relative) of someone with this bowel illness
- You have not joined a treatment-focused clinical study in the last 30 days

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study is looking at how the immune system works in people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which includes conditions like Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. By comparing blood or tissue samples from people with and without IBD, researchers hope to find better ways to treat the disease in the future.
This study looks at gene activity (what your body’s genes are “doing”) in people with bowel inflammation during endoscopy or bowel surgery. It may help researchers understand inflammatory bowel disease and improve future diagnosis or treatments.
This study looks at the typical features and risk factors in children diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). It may help families understand what affects IBD in kids, even if it is not testing a new treatment.
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.
This study looks at immune system changes in people around the time inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is first diagnosed, and compares different groups (new, very recent, or not found on scope). It may help researchers understand what the immune system looks like early in IBD and later in people who don’t show it on colonoscopy.
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.
