Read the detailed description

Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) are chronic Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) and may affect all segments of the digestive tract. These are diseases of multifactorial origin in which environmental and genetic factors are predominant.The EPIMAD registry, the world's largest epidemiological register for IBD, identifying all incident cases in the four departments of the North West of France showed between 1988 and 2007, an increase in the annual incidence of MC 71 % (6.5 / 105 (1988-1990) 11.1 / 105 (2006-2007) p <0.0001) in the age group 10-19 years. At the same time, the annual incidence of UC decreased 4.3 / 3.5 105 inhabitants / 105 inhabitants (20%), with phenotypic presentation remained stable. The increase in the incidence of CD will contribute to increase its weight in the health system, particularly in the pediatric CD frequently associated with an aggressive phenotype causing specific complications such as malnutrition, pubertal delay or thrive. These complications have a important impact on the quality of life with a long-term risk of functional disability. They may be associated with increased mortality. Immunosuppressants (azathioprine, methotrexate) have been used in pediatric forms only from the 90s and anti-TNF antibodies (infliximab and adalimumab), until the 2000s. These new therapeutic classes have profoundly changed the management of pediatric IBD. Although there is little data on the impact of these new treatments, early introduction of immunosuppressive and anti-TNFs seems to influence the natural history of IBD diagnosed in pediatric age. Anti-TNFs appear to be associated with more frequent and deeper remission. With the advent of these new treatment, new therapeutic targets such as endoscopic mucosal healing and more recently the deep remission combining clinical remission, biological and endoscopic, appears. However there is no data in the general population assessing the impact of new treatments and new therapeutic strategies in the pediatric population. Potential risks associated with the increasing use and early use of biological treatments in this particular population remain to be determined in the general population.

The main hypothesis of this study is that changes in therapeutic strategies in IBD diagnosed before 17 yeras old could influence the cumulative incidence of surgical resection and complications specific to this population as failure to thrive and delayed puberty, insertion socio-professional, the extension of the disease, hospitalization rates, and the rate of cancer.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Pediatric Inflammatory Bowel Disease, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens at 2 sites in France.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 27 Apr 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in France. 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?

Cumulative incidence of surgical resection in CD and colectomy in pediatric UC (time frame: end of follow up). 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 NCT02392221, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 27 Apr 2026.
