About this study

Transabdominal intestinal ultrasound (IUS) is gaining acceptance as a point-of-care test to objectively assess disease activity in Crohn's disease (CD).

In order to incorporate individual parameters in a future definition of transmural healing, and for the consistent application of IUS as a modality to assess treatment outcomes and establish therapeutic targets to ensure comparability between future studies, the inter-observer agreement should be determined for all relevant parameters.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Transabdominal intestinal ultrasound in people with Crohn Disease (CD), run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire, Amiens 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 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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?

Contact Mathurin Fumery, Pr (33+3 22 08 88 40, Fumery.mathurin@chu-amiens.fr), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of different IUS parameters between two operators (time frame: 1 year). 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 18 Feb 2025.
