A Study to Evaluate the Effect of Intravenous (IV) Infusions of Risankizumab on Pharmacokinetics of Cytochome P450 Substrates in Adult Participants With Moderately to Severely Active Ulcerative Colitis or Crohn's Disease

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a type of inflammatory bowel disease that causes inflammation and bleeding from the lining of the rectum and colon (large intestine).Crohn's disease (CD) is a long-lasting condition causing inflammation that can affect any part of the gut. CD may cause tiredness, loose stools with or without bleeding, abdominal pain, weight loss, and fever. This study will evaluate the effect of repeated infusions of risankizumab on the pharmacokinetics of sensitive probe substrates of Cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes in participants with moderately to severely active UC or CD. Risankizumab is an investigational drug being developed to treat trial participants with inflammatory diseases such as UC and CD. The study is split into two periods. In Period 1, participants will receive single oral doses of CYP sensitive probes and in Period 2, participants will receive risankizumab followed by single oral doses of CYP sensitive probes. Around 20 adult participants with moderately to severely active CD or UC will be enrolled in the study across multiple sites worldwide. In Period 1, participants will receive oral doses of CYP sensitive probes on Day 1. In Period 2, participants will receive risankizumab by intravenous (IV) infusion on Days 1, 29 and 57 followed by oral CYP sensitive probes on Day 64. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the course of the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests and checking for side effects.

A Phase II Study in Patients With Moderate to Severe Active Crohn's Disease

The proposed study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center Phase II study to investigate the safety and efficacy of SHR0302 in patients with moderate to severe active Crohn's Disease. The study aims to evaluate the optimal dose of SHR0302 and time needed in inducing clinical remission in active CD. This is an 12+12 weeks study, in which participants who complete the first 12 weeks treatment phase, will have the option to enter a blinded active arms 12-week extension phase. Early withdrawn subjects during the first treatment phase cannot enter the extension phase. The total duration of the study participation, including extension and follow-up, will be approximately 26 weeks. With the wealth of scientific evidence on JAK/STAT involvement in IBD, the data from similar class of new drugs and the current data on SHR0302 (JAK1 inhibitor), support the rationale to proceed with phase II studies to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SHR0302 in patients with moderate to severe active CD.

Assessing the Drug Exposure Risk of Infants Breastfed by Women With Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Breastfeeding is beneficial to both mother and baby. However, many breastfeeding women are affected by long-term health conditions and need to take medications. Sometimes, concerns about transfer of drugs to infants via breast milk lead the mothers to either avoid breastfeeding or stop their medication. Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) is a chronic condition that is marked by an abnormal response of the body's immune system, and high levels of certain proteins that cause inflammation (Cytokines like Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha or TNF?). A group of drugs called "biologics" target and stop these proteins from causing inflammation, and have been successfully used to treat this condition. Inflammatory proteins may be present in breast milk of healthy women in variable levels, and may play a role in development of infant's brain and immune system. This study is being conducted to investigate: Concentration of some of the inflammatory proteins in breast milk of mothers with IBD and healthy controls Interaction between these proteins and biologics in breast milk of women with IBD Potential role of these proteins (and their interaction with biologics) on development of infant learning and memory function It has been presumed that concentrations of TNF? and some other cytokines are higher in breast milk of women with IBD, and the biologics can normalize these high levels. Due to precautions for COVID-19, the study now consists of only two mandatory study visits and two optional study visits. The mandatory visits include two home visits in the first 4 months postpartum to complete a participant questionnaire and collect a small sample of breast milk at each visit. The optional study visits consist of two visits at the Hospital for Sick Children for evaluation of learning and memory function of the infant at the ages of 12 and 18 months. Additionally, mothers will be required to complete for their infant subscales of The Ages and Stages Questionnaires®, Third Edition (ASQ®-3) either in person or over the telephone at the ages of 12 months and 18 months.

Capsule Colonoscopy in Crohn's Disease and Its Correlation With Conventional Colonoscopy and Faecal Calprotectin

Aims: To study the feasibility of capsule colonoscopy in patients with Crohn's Disease (CD). To compare the results of capsule colonoscopy with conventional colonoscopy in assessing mucosal healing. To correlate the level of faecal calprotectin with the results of capsule colonoscopy and conventional colonoscopy. To document changes in clinical practice attributable to the capsule colonoscopy findings a) concordant with and b) in addition to the parallel findings at colonoscopy and ileoscopy. Project design: Cross sectional, prospective, comparative study Methodology: Patients of the Royal Melbourne Hospital (RMH) and other associated speciality clinics with an established diagnosis of CD who need assessment of mucosal healing and have consented to be part of the study will undergo capsule colonoscopy and conventional colonoscopy on the same day after undergoing bowel preparation. The images of both the conventional and capsule colonoscopies will be recorded. In addition calprotectin (an inflammatory marker in faeces) will be measured in a sample of faeces collected by the patients prior to the colonoscopy day. Professor Macrae and the scholarly selective student researcher will assess the recorded images obtained from capsule colonoscopies once the images have been deidentified. To assess the level of mucosal disease they will use the Simple Endoscopic Score for CD (SESCD). The results of the assessment of mucosal healing obtained from conventional colonoscopy will be compared with those of capsule colonoscopy and levels of faecal calprotectin will then be correlated.

Diet for Induction and Maintenance of Remission and Re-biosis in Crohn's Disease

The modified-Exclusive Enteral Nutrition (mEEN) is an open label randomized controlled trial in mild to severe Crohn's Disease patients. The purpose of this study is to determine whether induction of remission and maintenance of remission can be achieved with a new dietary strategy that involves only 2 weeks of Exclusive Enteral Nutrition (EEN) with Modulen and 12 weeks of an exclusion diet involving selected table foods. This novel approach will be compared to the gold standard dietary regime involving 8 weeks of EEN.

COmparison of MicroBiota AccordIng to Age in Crohn's Disease (COMeBACk)

The cause of CD could be different according to age at onset of CD symptoms. Indeed we know that some very young patients at CD diagnosis have particular genetic variants as abnormalities of the IL10R that are regarded as quite monogenic disease. In the other way, the microbiota also undergoes substantial changes at the extremes of life, in infants and older people and the ramifications of which are very few being explored. The comparison of microbiota by principal component analysis and genetic profile of patients with CD beginning at the extremes of life could help us to better known physiopathology of CD according to age and provide arguments that CD beginning at the extremes of life could be different diseases. The aim of the study is to ascertain through population-based study the hypothesis that gut microbiota is different between paediatric-onset and elderly-onset CD patients in relation with genetic and environmental mechanisms. The results will provide a better knowledge of the etiopathogenic ways in CD and propose a personalized therapeutic care based on age at CD onset (i.e. according to the gut bacteria involved).
