Diet and gut bacteria in Crohn's disease
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a special diet (called an exclusion diet) plus a nutritional supplement can change your gut bacteria and help control active Crohn's disease. It may be a good option if you have mild-to-moderate symptoms and want to try a food-based approach before stronger medications.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have Crohn's disease that is active and involves your small bowel
- You have current symptoms and evidence of inflammation (like high CRP or calprotectin)
- You can follow a special diet (an exclusion diet) for several weeks and take a nutritional supplement (Modulen IBD)
- You are not taking antibiotics or probiotics, and you don't have serious complications like fistulas or blockages
- You are not hospitalized, don't have active cancer, and don't have other conditions (like celiac or uncontrolled diabetes) that would interfere

This study tests whether a combination of fecal transplant (transferring healthy bacteria from a donor) and dietary changes can help control disease activity in people newly diagnosed with Crohn's. It is for those with mild to moderate symptoms who have not yet taken any Crohn's medications.
This study looks at proteins from your body and gut bacteria to understand Crohn's disease better. You may join if you are about to have your first colonoscopy for suspected Crohn's and have not had any treatment yet.
This study tests whether combining a specific diet with biologic medicines can reduce active inflammation and symptoms of Crohn’s disease. It may help people who still have active disease in the bowel despite prior care.
This study looks at how changing your diet might help people with Crohn's disease feel better. It is for adults with mild to moderate Crohn's who are not using a liquid-only diet and have not had recent surgery.
This study analyzes your gut bacteria to see if it can predict how well you will respond to Crohn's disease treatments. If you are having a colonoscopy for routine care, you may be eligible.
This study tests whether a specific diet after Crohn’s surgery can help you recover and stay well. It compares outcomes in people who can follow an exact diet plan after bowel resection.
