Trial summary

It is assumed that gut inflammation and lesions characterizing flares of Crohn's disease (CD) result from an aberrant T-cell mediated immune responses characterized by a complex balance between peripheral and lamina propria regulatory and effector T cell subsets. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Dynamics of Regulatory and Effector T Lymphocyte Subsets in Patients With Crohn's Disease During Postoperative Recurrence : Implications for Identifying Patients at High Risk of Relapse.

It is assumed that gut inflammation and lesions characterizing flares of Crohn's disease (CD) result from an aberrant T-cell mediated immune responses characterized by a complex balance between peripheral and lamina propria regulatory and effector T cell subsets. Because most of CD patients who undergo a surgery experienced a postoperative endoscopic recurrence of the disease (70 % at one year) leading to a clinical recurrence (10 % per year), the "model" of postoperative recurrence in CD represents a privileged situation that mimicks what happens in the gut of CD patients in clinical remission before the occurrence of further flares. It is likely that the same factors which underlie the immunopathogenesis of CD at its early stages also contribute to disease recurrence in the postoperative setting. Indeed, the postoperative state is performed for intent of disease remission and this situation represents probably an ideal setting to investigate the dynamics of most of T cell subsets in the peripheral and mucosal compartments because one may argue that removal of the diseased segment of bowel resets the disease to its earliest phases, providing an interesting window to better understand which T cell subsets predispose to disease recurrence.

That is the reason why this model will be used in the present project i) to understand better the immunopathogenesis of CD relapse; ii) to identify novel and promising immune cell-associated biomarkers capable to predict relapse of the disease and finally iii) to identify potential specific therapeutic target associated with T cell subsets involved in the initiation of disease.

What is being measured

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

  1. Postoperative endoscopic recurrence, assessed by a Rutgeerts 's score > i1, over the one-year post-surgery follow-up

    Rutgeerts 's score > i1

    Measured: at one year

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. proportion of T cell subsets in the arm of patients who will experience a recurrence and those who will not.

    Measured: at 3 months before relapse

  2. number of T cell subsets in the arm of patients who will experience a recurrence and those who will not.

    Measured: at 3 months before relapse

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing blood sample in people with Crohn Disease, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon at 1 site 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 5 inclusion and 4 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 4 Dec 2025. 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 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.

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 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?

Postoperative endoscopic recurrence, assessed by a Rutgeerts 's score > i1, over the one-year post-surgery follow-up (time frame: at 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 NCT02770495, 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 4 Dec 2025.
