High protein drink for Crohn's with muscle loss
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests if a high protein oral nutrition drink with HMB can help people with active Crohn's disease who also have muscle loss (sarcopenia). The goal is to see if it improves muscle strength and overall health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests whether a special liquid-only diet (exclusive enteral nutrition) can help people with active Crohn's disease, including those with complications like fistulas or narrowing of the intestine. It aims to improve nutrition and reduce disease activity without medication.
This study tests whether a high-protein drink can help prevent or improve muscle loss and weakness in people with cancer who are getting chemotherapy or preparing for chest surgery. If you are 40 or older, have low muscle strength, and can manage daily activities, you may be able to join.
This study tests whether a daily supplement called HMB (a natural substance found in some foods) can help improve walking and strength in people with sarcopenia (age-related muscle loss) who have recently spent time in bed. If you are between 50 and 99 years old and have weak muscles, this trial might help you regain function.
This trial tests an investigational drug called AMC6156 to see if it can help improve muscle mass and strength in older adults with sarcopenia (age-related muscle loss). Participants will also follow exercise and nutrition guidance.
This trial tests whether adding dietary protein can help skeletal muscles recover and function better in people living with heart failure. It may help with strength, muscle wasting, and overall ability to do daily activities.
This study tests a special nutritional drink to help people who are at risk of malnutrition after a hospital stay. The goal is to see if the drink improves strength and overall recovery.
