Biobank study of gut microbes, genes, and blood chemistry
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be 18 years or older
- Have a diagnosis of Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis
- Be able to give informed consent (agree to take part)
- Do not have a current known gut infection/intestinal germ causing active illness
- Do not be a person used as a “control” if you have been diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease before
- If you are being considered as a control, you should not have a close family member (first or second degree) with inflammatory bowel disease

This study collects and stores digestive (bowel) tissue to better understand how gut bacteria may affect diseases like ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease. It may help researchers find future ways to improve care for people with these conditions.
This study looks at the genes of people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and healthy volunteers to understand why IBD affects different populations. You may join if you have Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, or undetermined IBD, or if you are a healthy person without any IBD history.
This study collects and stores information and samples from people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) to help researchers learn more and improve care. Your participation mainly helps build a “biobank,” which can support future studies.
This study looks at how changes in gut bacteria (the microbiome) relate to inflammatory bowel disease, including ulcerative colitis and Crohn disease. It may help researchers understand what might improve symptoms or disease control.
This study asks people with known or suspected inflammatory bowel disease to enroll in a registry and biorepository. It helps researchers better understand the condition using health information and stored biological samples.
This study follows adults with Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis when their treatment is changed. It collects health information and samples to better understand how treatment changes affect people over time.
