Exclusive liquid nutrition for active Crohn's disease
Part of Digestive system, Infections clinical trials.
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 specific “exclusion diet” (removing certain foods) added to standard treatment can better control unstable Crohn’s disease in children. It may help reduce inflammation and flare-ups when symptoms are not controlled by usual medicines.
This study tests whether changing your diet and lifestyle can help repair the lining of your gut if you have Crohn's disease. It focuses on people whose Crohn's causes food-related symptoms or IBS-like symptoms, and involves a special scope procedure to check for food-triggered gut barrier damage.
This trial tests a special diet (CDED) combined with anti-TNF medication (infliximab or adalimumab) to see if it's safe and works better for active Crohn's disease. It may help if you haven't used these drugs before and can follow the diet.
This trial tests if combining a drug called ustekinumab with a special liquid diet (semi-exclusive enteral nutrition) is as effective as using only the liquid diet to improve outcomes before Crohn's surgery.
This trial tests whether adding a special liquid diet (partial enteral nutrition) to a new advanced Crohn's medication can help control disease better than the medication alone.
This study tests whether combining biologic medicines (TNF-alpha inhibitors like infliximab or adalimumab) with a special nutrition plan helps young people with active Crohn's disease feel better. The nutrition plan may include drinking special formula drinks instead of regular food (or alongside some regular food).
