In plain English
What this trial is testing
Condition(s) listed: Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn Disease. This is an observational study: researchers collect information (for example questionnaires, samples, or scans) but the study does not assign a treatment.
Who can join
- Ages 18 to 69
- Any sex
Some of the main requirements, copied from the record:
- adult (age >18 years) patients with histologically confirmed CD or UC undergoing intestinal resection due to stricturing disease, regardless of their current or past medical treatment;
- given that it is an observational study, also pregnant and breastfeeding patients could be included;
- able and willing to sign the informed consent.
There are also 4 reasons someone might not be able to join (exclusion criteria). Only the trial team can confirm whether you qualify.
What's involved
- About 35 participants are expected to take part.
- Start date: 2025-02-27.
- Main results expected around 2025-09 (estimate from the record).
- 1 study site listed (1 marked recruiting) in Italy.
Main thing being measured
- To define spatial, cellular, and molecular characteristics of IBD-derived intestinal samples (6 months from surgery)
In the researchers’ words
A portion of patients with Inflammatory bowel disease often require surgical intervention since they do not respond to the current therapies. Besides this risk, patients may develop post-operative disease complications, and the factors beneath are far from being understood or predicted.
