Vaping and Crohn's disease return after surgery
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at how vaping versus smoking tobacco affects the return of Crohn's disease after surgery. It may help doctors understand which habit is safer for people who have had their intestine reconnected.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older and have been diagnosed with Crohn's disease.

This study looks at how certain immune cells relate to Crohn's disease coming back after bowel surgery. The goal is to better understand why some patients have a recurrence, which could help improve future treatments.
This study compares two ways to choose biologic (targeted) medicines after Crohn’s surgery to help stop Crohn’s from coming back in the bowel. It may help you avoid or delay repeat inflammation by adjusting treatment based on endoscopy findings.
This study follows patients with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis to see how their intestine heals after surgery. It looks for signs that can predict whether inflammation will return or complications will happen.
This study looks at how smoking habits affect recovery after colorectal surgery. It aims to understand if smokers have more complications than non-smokers, which could help tailor care before and after surgery.
This study tests a new oral treatment called EXL01 to see if it can prevent Crohn's disease from coming back after surgery to remove part of the small and large intestine. It may be an option if you are not planning to use strong immune-suppressing drugs (except anti-TNF) in the next 6 months.
This trial tests a specific way of cutting the bowel during surgery for Crohn's disease to see if it lowers the chance of the disease coming back. It is for people with Crohn's in the ileocecal area who are having their first surgery to remove that section.
