Diet plan for active ulcerative colitis flare-ups
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial studies whether a specific diet can improve symptoms and reduce inflammation during an active flare of ulcerative colitis. You may be eligible if you have documented active disease and can follow the study diet and medication rules.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be between 18 and 75 years old
- Have an established diagnosis of ulcerative colitis confirmed by tests like scope (endoscopy), imaging, or biopsy
- Have active ulcerative colitis—your doctors must have measured a “Mayo score” of 2 or higher within the last 2 months
- Have had more than 10 cm of bowel involved at some point in your illness, or have recent signs of active disease on testing within the last 6 months
- If you take UC medicines, you can’t change your treatment in the 4 weeks before starting and during the study; and if you smoke, you must not change how often you smoke during the study

This trial screens people as potential donors for a fecal microbiota transplant program used for ulcerative colitis. It checks safety and eligibility so the transplant process is as safe as possible for people with active disease.
This trial tests whether a tailored anti-inflammatory diet based on American foods can help people with mild to moderately active ulcerative colitis. You'll follow a special meal plan with foods like soup, smoothies, salmon, and avocado, and researchers will track your symptoms and inflammation.
This study tests whether a special diet designed to improve your gut bacteria can help control mild ulcerative colitis. You'll receive prepared meals and follow the diet for several weeks to see if it reduces inflammation in your colon.
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.
This trial uses a gentle ultrasound scan (on the outside of the body) to see how well treatment is working during a moderate to severe flare of ulcerative colitis. It aims to find out if this painless test can predict recovery and help guide care without needing a telescope exam (endoscopy).
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.
