About this study
CURRENT STATE OF KNOWLEDGE IN VIEW OF THE RESEARCH About the condition under investigation Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, are chronic diseases characterized by relapsing and remitting episodes.
About comparator strategies/procedures Infliximab in its Intravenous (IV) form was the first biotherapy to be approved to treat IBD. Biosimilars of intravenous (IV) infliximab have been shown to be non-inferior to the reference product in patients with IBD, to induce and maintain clinical response
Recently, the subcutaneous (SC) formulation of the infliximab biosimilar CT-P13 (CT-P13 SC) has been shown to be non-inferior on CT-P13 concentration at week 22 to the IV formulation of CT-P13 (CT-P13 IV). These results were based on 66 patients treated with CT-P13 SC, and larger studies are needed to better assess IBD disease course of patients treated with CT-P13 SC in real-life setting.
Read the detailed description
The study assesses in real-life setting the IBD disease course of infliximab-naïve IBD patients treated with subcutaneous infliximab. This study will look at the clinical and biological outcomes of people who take subcutaneous infliximab.
The study will enroll approximately 120 participants with an indication for iv infliximab.
All participants will receive 1 intravenous infusion on Day 1 and Week 2, followed by 1 SC injection on Week 6 and then 1 SC injection every 2 weeks for up to Week 48.
Switch to subcutaneous infliximab (Remsima® SC) at week 6 will be proposed as part of standard of care.
This multi-center trial will be conducted in hospitals of Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris (AP-HP). The overall time to participate in this study is 48 weeks. Participants will make approximately 5 visits to the clinic.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Biocollection in people with Inflammatory Bowel Diseases, run by Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris 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 4 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Apr 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.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
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?
Steroids Steroid-free clinical remission defined as Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) < 150 in patients with CD (time frame: week 48). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT05722353, which also lists 4 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 2 Apr 2025.
