Inflammatory bowel disease clinical trials in Chicago

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of RO7837195 compared with placebo in participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis for whom prior treatment with conventional and/or advanced therapies has failed.

The main purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of eltrekibart and mirikizumab in adult participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC).

Alcohol use disorder (AUD) has been associated with high prevalence of inflammation-associated co-morbidities in people living with HIV even those receiving effective antiretroviral therapy (ART). Our preliminary data support a model in which the combined insult of AUD and HIV on the gut, specifically on the microbiota and intestinal barrier integrity, exacerbates inflammation. Our preliminary data using intestinal organoids also suggest a potential mechanism for AUD-mediated changes in the gut barrier function during HIV; the intestines of HIV+ individuals have low resilience to alcohol induced intestinal barrier disruption caused by high levels of oxidative stress. Finally, our preliminary data also suggest a potential approach to enhance the integrity of the intestinal barrier and reduce gut derived inflammation in people living with HIV with/without AUD- short chain fatty acid prebiotics. These prebiotics prevent alcohol mediated adverse effects on the intestinal barrier and inflammation by preventing oxidative stress. These prebiotics are safe and decrease gut inflammation in humans. 40 HIV+ ART+ (20 AUD- and 20 AUD +), will be recruited for a prebiotic intervention. This is a proof-of-concept intervention study to establish a causal link between microbiota-gut and HIV pathology during ART by asking whether modifying microbiota and gut milieu impacts intestinal barrier function, systemic inflammation, and brain pathology in HIV+ people. Participants will complete three in-person clinic visits and four virtual check-in visits during this 8 week study. This study uses a crossover design. At baseline, participants will be randomized to receive either a prebiotic or a placebo for the first intervention period. After completing this period, participants will cross over to receive the alternate study product for the second intervention period, allowing each participant to serve as their own control. These participants are part of the larger observation study (n=160), which will test the hypothesis that intestines from HIV+ individuals have lower resilience to alcohol mediated gut barrier disruption than intestines from HIV-negative controls. New participants will also be recruited. Blood, urine, and stool, will be collected from participants to compare intestinal barrier integrity, system and gut inflammation, immune activation, oxidative stress, microbiome/metabolome. and HIV reservois.

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of LY4268989 when compared to placebo in adult participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC). The study drug will be administered orally. The study will last up to approximately 108 weeks, excluding screening.

The main purpose of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of LY4268989 when given with mirikizumab compared to mirikizumab alone in adult participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC). Study participation will last approximately 118 weeks, including 104 weeks of treatment and may include up to 21 visits.

The main aim of this study is to learn about the effect of treatment with vedolizumab IV (vedolizumab) together with adalimumab or vedolizumab (VDZ) together with ustekinumab (UST) in adults with moderate to severe Crohn's Disease, and the effect of treatment with vedolizumab alone, after the dual targeted treatment. The study is conducted in two parts. In Part A, participants will receive the dual targeted treatment (vedolizumab together with either adalimumab or ustekinumab). In part B, participants will receive vedolizumab only. Part B will include participants who responded to the treatment in Part A. Each participant will be followed up for at least 26 weeks after the last dose of treatment.

This is a multinational, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase 3 induction study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of duvakitug in participants with moderately to severely active Ulcerative Colitis (UC). Study details include: The study duration may be up to 35 weeks with: * Screening period * 12-week Sub-Study 1 (Single-Arm Open-Label Feeder Induction) or Sub-Study 2 (Pivotal Induction) * 12-week Sub-Study 3 (Extended Induction for non-responders) * 45 days follow-up visit for participants who do not enroll into the maintenance study (EFC18359) The treatment duration will be up to 12 weeks in each sub-study. The number of scheduled on-site visits will be up to 8 for the Sub-Study 1 and Sub Study 2 or a maximum of 15 visits for participants completing extended induction.

The goal of this study is to better understand treatment strategies for people with ulcerative colitis (UC). Researchers will compare patients with UC in histologic remission (no evidence of inflammation or active disease on endoscopy and biopsies) who continue to take medical therapy to patients with UC who de-escalate (decrease or discontinue) medical therapy. Both treatment strategies are considered within regular medical practice. Researchers want to find out whether remission can be maintained after de-escalation of therapy. Participants will be: * either be randomly assigned to continue medical therapy or de-escalate medical therapy -OR- be assigned per the participant's preference * clinically managed according to regular medical care * asked to provide blood, stool (poop), and tissue samples for study purposes

The purpose of this observational study is to learn about the effects of etrasimod as a treatment for adult patients with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis. Patients will be treated according to standard of care and will only be included in the study if etrasimod is the best treatment of choice according to the physician and they have not previously taken etrasimod. All patients will be prescribed etrasimod according to standard of care. Tests and doctor visits will be conducted according to standard of care with the exception of health questionnaires about ulcerative colitis symptoms. These questionnaires will be completed by patients at various timepoints during the study using their mobile phone, tablet, or computer. The study is 52 weeks with 28 days of safety follow up. The effects of etrasimod will be analyzed for each patient comparing their disease activity prior to the start of etrasimod.

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of mirikizumab and placebo compared with mirikizumab and concomitantly administered tirzepatide in adult participants with moderately to severely active CD and obesity, or overweight. The maximum duration of this study is up to 61 weeks.

Crohn's Disease (CD) and Ulcerative Colitis (UC), collectively known as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), are two of the most significant chronic conditions of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) and affects over 1.5 million individuals in the U.S. Recently, there has been an increased understanding of the importance of sleep and sleep disruption in IBD as a potentially modifiable risk factor. We, therefore, hypothesize that intervening with morning bright light therapy (BLT) in IBD patients with CM will decrease intestinal permeability and pro-inflammatory cytokines, positively impact intestinal microbiota, and improve quality of life (QoL).

Micronutrient deficiencies are common in ulcerative colitis (UC). Selenium deficiency is associated with worse disease outcomes including disease flares and need for surgery. Previous in vitro and in vivo studies demonstrated that selenium regulates colonic inflammation, and that selenium supplementation protects against DSS-induced colitis. In this proof-of-concept clinical trial, we aim to test the hypothesis that selenium supplementation in moderate to severely active UC patients will improve responsiveness to advanced therapy such as biologics and small molecules.

This phase Ib trial studies the side effects of nivolumab and to see how well it works alone and in combination with other treatments, such as ipilimumab, cabozantinib, platinum containing therapy, and fluoropyrimidine, in treating patients with autoimmune disorders and cancer that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced), to other places in the body (metastatic) or cannot removed by surgery (unresectable). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab and ipilimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Cabozantinib blocks certain proteins, which may help keep tumor cells from growing. It may also prevent the growth of new blood vessels that tumors need to grow. Cabozantinib is a type of tyrosine kinase inhibitor and a type of angiogenesis inhibitor. Chemotherapy drugs, such as platinum containing therapies and fluoropyrimidine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving nivolumab alone and in combination with other treatments, including ipilimumab, cabozantinib, platinum containing therapy, or fluoropyrimidine, may be safe, tolerable, and/or effective in treating patients with autoimmune disorders and advanced, metastatic, or unresectable cancer.

Study IIBD is a master protocol that will support a collection of individual sub studies that share key design components. Participants will be assigned to the appropriate study prior to randomization to a treatment group. The studies aim to evaluate the efficacy and safety of new treatments in adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease and will last at least 62 weeks.

This is a Phase 2, multicenter, proof-of-concept platform study in adult participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC). The primary goal of the study is to assess the efficacy and safety of multiple interventions following intravenous (IV) induction and subcutaneous (SC) maintenance treatment.

Crohn's disease (CD) is a long-lasting disease that causes severe inflammation (redness, swelling), in the digestive tract, most frequently affecting the bowels. It can cause many different symptoms including belly pain, diarrhea, tiredness, and weight loss. Treatments are available but do not work the same for all patients or may stop working over time. This study will evaluate the effectiveness and adverse events of targeted therapies (TaTs) for adult participants with moderate to severe CD. The medicines assessed in this study are risankizumab, trosunilimab, lutikizumab, and ABBV-8736. When participants join the study, they will be randomized into available study treatment groups. Adult participants with CD will be enrolled. Around 540 participants will be enrolled in the study at approximately 300 sites worldwide. Risankizumab and trosunilimab are given as an injection under the skin or as an infusion into the vein. Lutikizumab is given as an injection under the skin. ABBV-8736 is given as an infusion into the vein. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care treatment without participating in this study. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, endoscopies, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires and a daily diary.

This research study is testing an investigational research product called TRX103 as a possible treatment for individuals suffering from Crohn's Disease (CD). The primary purpose of this study is to learn how safe and effective different doses of TRX103 are when administered to individuals with CD.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of etrasimod for the treatment of moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis in adolescents (≥ 12 years up to \< 18 years of age). Participants who will complete the total 52-week treatment period will have the opportunity to continue in a Long-Term Extension (LTE) Period of up to 4 years (5 years after study enrollment).

The purpose of this study is to compare the effectiveness and safety of a strategy of switching to an alternative targeted immunomodulator (TIM) therapy to treat to a target of endoscopic remission, versus continuing index TIM in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) (Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis \[UC\]) in symptomatic remission with moderate to severe endoscopic inflammation despite optimization of index TIM in a real-world setting.

The purpose of this protocol is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tulisokibart in participants with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease. Study 1's primary hypotheses are that at least 1 tulisokibart dose level is superior to placebo in the proportion of participants achieving clinical remission per Crohn's Disease Activity Index score (\<150, US/FDA) or per stool frequency and abdominal pain score (EU/EMA) and in the proportion of participants achieving endoscopic response at Week 52 (US/FDA and EU/EMA), and that at least 1 tulisokibart dose level is superior to placebo in the proportion of participants achieving clinical remission per Crohn's Disease Activity Index score (\<150, US/FDA) or per stool frequency and abdominal pain score (EU/EMA) and in the proportion of participants achieving endoscopic response at Week 12 (US/FDA and EU/EMA). Study 2's primary hypothesis is that at least 1 tulisokibart dose level is superior to placebo in the proportion of participants achieving clinical remission per Crohn's Disease Activity Index score (\<150, US/FDA) or stool frequency and abdominal pain score (EU/EMA) and in the proportion of participants achieving endoscopic response at Week 12 (US/FDA and EU/EMA).
