Has remission for your Crohn’s or Ulcerative Colitis been elusive?

Crohn’s Disease & Ulcerative Colitis are each a type of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). Heredity is believed to be a factor in developing IBD. Studies show that 5% to 20% of those affected have a close relative (parent, child, or sibling) with CD or UC, though the risk is higher with Crohn’s.

They can also be progressive health conditions, meaning that symptoms like gut pain, diarrhea and fatigue can—if not properly managed—get worse.

Lastly, Crohn’s & Ulcerative Colitis are what’s called “autoimmune” diseases. This means the body’s immune system attacks healthy tissue—in this case, different parts of the GI tract—by mistake. Fortunately, treatments exist, but more options are needed.

What are clinical trials?

Clinical trials are medical research studies that test investigational drugs and treatments.

People may not give much thought to clinical research, but everything from aspirin to chemotherapy has been carefully tested before being prescribed by your doctor.

Clinical trials need human volunteers, who participate under the supervision of a doctor and/or health professionals. As the trial goes on, the doctors gather more and more information about the drug or treatment under investigation. It is only through clinical trials that we learn if drugs and treatments are both effective and safe.
