Cutting ultra-processed food to lengthen remission in kids with Crohn's
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at whether cutting down on ultra-processed foods (like packaged snacks and sugary drinks) can help keep Crohn's disease in remission longer in children and teens. Participants will get guidance on a healthier eating plan.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks at whether a simple educational program can help teens with IBD eat less ultra-processed foods (like fast food and sugary snacks). Participants will learn about healthier food choices during their regular infusion visits.
This study tests if a special diet (called CDED) combined with infliximab (a biologic drug) is more effective than infliximab alone for children with newly diagnosed or relapsed moderate-to-severe Crohn’s disease. It aims to improve gut healing and reduce inflammation.
This study tests whether adding a special diet (the Crohn's Disease Exclusion Diet) to standard anti-TNF medicine works better than the medicine alone for people with moderate to severe Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis. You would be asked to follow a specific meal plan for several weeks while taking your regular 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 a special liquid diet (smoothie) to treat newly diagnosed Crohn's disease in children and young adults. It aims to understand how the diet works and if it can help reduce inflammation.
This trial tests whether a Nordic-adapted version of a special diet (called CDED) works as well as the standard version for children with Crohn's disease. It aims to help reduce inflammation and improve symptoms.
