Trial summary

Establishing that mucosal healing (MH) has occurred after therapy is an important treatment goal, and the gold standard is endoscopic evaluation. In UC it is unclear if clinical parameters are adequate. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of PUCAI Score at Assessment for Mucosal Healing During Clinical Remission in Pediatric Ulcerative Colitis

Establishing that mucosal healing (MH) has occurred after therapy is an important treatment goal, and the gold standard is endoscopic evaluation. In UC it is unclear if clinical parameters are adequate. The pediatric ulcerative colitis activity index (PUCAI) has demonstrated good correlations for clinical remission and disease severity, but its role for establishing mucosal healing after therapy has not been validated . The ability to predict mucosal healing may be different for patients in long term remission compared to assessment after obtaining clinical remission. No previous study has prospectively validated the use of PUCAI as a proxy for MH specifically during clinical remission after therapy.

Read the detailed description

All pediatric patients ≤ 19 years old and at the Wolfson Medical Center pediatric IBD center who enter clinical remission are routinely assessed by colposcopy or sigmoidoscopy assess. This is an analysis of prospectively collected data regarding PUCAI and endoscopic Mayo score at the time of assessment of mucosal healing by endoscopy. Patients could be included if they have establish ulcerative colitis, while they are on remission for at least 3 months after treatment of flare. For this study, complete clinical remission was absence of abdominal pain, and no diarrhea or bleeding (PUCAI<10). sigmoidoscopy will be performed between 12-24 weeks after remission was documented.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ulcerative Colitis, run by Wolfson Medical Center at 1 site in Israel.

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 0 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Nov 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 Israel. 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?

Mucusa healing according to the MAYO score (time frame: cross sectional study, the data will be reported during 4 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 3 Nov 2020.
