About this study
Official title: Advanced Endoscopic Imaging Using HD+ Endoscopy and i-Scan for Assessment of Mucosal Healing in IBD
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) encompasses two major forms of chronic intestinal disorders, Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis (UC). Diagnosis is based on several macroscopic and histologic features including patterns of inflammation, crypt abscesses and granulomas. i-Scan use an endoscopic image from the video processor and reconstruct virtual images in real time, resulting in an improved contrast of the capillary patterns and enhancement of the mucosal surface (so called virtual chromoendoscopy).
The main objective of this study is to determine endoscopic features of mucosal healing in patients with IBD and to compare these features to clinical and histological data in order to establish a new endoscopic classification of mucosal healing and to evaluate mucosal healing as a parameter of remission and relapse.
- Conditions
- Crohn´s Disease, Ulcerative Colitis
- Being tested

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
High-definition white light endoscopy and i-ScanDevice
Patients will undergo advanced endoscopic imaging. Findings will be compared to histopathological and clinical results.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Crohn´s disease - active | Patients in the active phase of the disease Receives: Device: High-definition white light endoscopy and i-Scan | |
| Crohn´s disease - quiescent | Patients in the quiescent phase of the disease Receives: Device: High-definition white light endoscopy and i-Scan | |
| Ulcerative colitis - active | Patients in the active phase of the disease Receives: Device: High-definition white light endoscopy and i-Scan | |
| Ucerative colitis - quiescent | Patients in the quiescent phase of the disease Receives: Device: High-definition white light endoscopy and i-Scan |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Mucosal healing
We will determine high-definition white light endoscopic and i-Scan features of mucosal inflammation (e.g. erosions, erythema, ulcerous lesions) in IBD in order to establish a new endoscopic classification of mucosal healing.
Measured: up to three years
Secondary outcomes (2)
Histologic correlation
Comparison of clinical and histopathological data with endoscopic findings to evaluate mucosal healing as a parameter of remission and relapse.
Measured: up to three years
Therapeutic effect
We will evaluate the effect of different therapeutic strategies (eg. anti-TNF treatment) on characteristics (e.g. erosions, ulcers, erythema) of mucosal healing.
Measured: up to three years

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Crohn´s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis, run by University of Erlangen-Nürnberg Medical School at 1 site in Germany.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Dec 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Mucosal healing (time frame: up to three years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Dec 2020.
