About this study

Official title: Stavanger University Hospital IBD Study - a Cross Sectional Longitudinal Study on Patients Treated With Biologics

In this cross sectional and longitudinal study, patients with inflammatory bowel disease on biological treatment with infliximab or adalimumab will be included.

After inclusion, the dosage of their existing biological therapy will be adjusted following regular trough-level and antibody-level monitoring, according to a treatment algorithm.

Disease activity markers, fatigue and QoL will be assessed during the study. The hypothesis is that therapeutic drug monitoring may improve clinical disease outcome after one year of follow-up.

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinical remission rate

    Harvey Bradshaw Index <5 Partial Mayo score <=2

    Measured: One Year

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Symptom scoring

    Harvey Bradshaw Index, Partial Mayo Score. Change after therapeutic drug monitoring.

    Measured: One Year

  2. Inflammatory markers

    C reactive protein, Fecal Calprotectin. Change after therapeutic drug monitoring.

    Measured: One year

  3. Fatigue scoring

    Assessed by Fatigue severity scale and Visual analogue scale. Change after therapeutic drug monitoring.

    Measured: One Year

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Norway. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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?

Clinical remission rate (time frame: One Year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02134054, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 15 Mar 2024.
