What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Success of endoscopic dilatation

    Successful dilatation means the passage of the endoscope (or enteroscopy colonoscope) through the stenosis

    Measured: at week 8

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Stenosis measure

    The endoscopic stenosis diameter will be estimated pre and post-dilatation

    Measured: baseline

  2. success of endoscopic dilatation

    The success of endoscopic dilatation at week 52 means absence of clinical subocclusion, no necessity of surgical nor endoscopic dilatation

    Measured: at week 52

  3. Mucosal healing

    • Anastomotic strictures: We define mucosal healing as a Rutgeerts < or equal 2 with at least 1 point of improvement (añadir el score)
    • Primary strictures: Absence of ulcers after treatment

    Measured: at week 8

  4. Histological cure

    We consider histological cure if:

    • Epithelial damage is < or equal 1
    • Architectural changes is < or equal 1
    • Infiltration of mononuclear cells in lamina propria is < or equal 1
    • Polymorphonuclear cells in the lamina propria = 0
    • Polymorphonuclear cells in epithelium = 0
    • Absence of erosions and ulcers (based ib scoring system for Histologic Abnormalities in Crohn's disease Mucosal Biopsy Specimens - Title: Early lesions of recurrent Crohn's disease caused by infusion of intestinal contents in excluded ileum Author(s): D'Haens, Geert R.; Geboes, Karel; Peeters, Mark; et al.

    Measured: at week 8

  5. proportion of patients that develop anti-adalimumab antibodies

    Measured: at the end of the study

  6. adverse events

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Adalimumab in people with Crohn's Disease, run by Sara Varea at 13 sites in Spain.

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 7 inclusion and 8 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Dec 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 13 sites in Spain. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: slow recruitment). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Success of endoscopic dilatation (time frame: at week 8). 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 13 Dec 2018.
