Skeletal Health and Bone Marrow Composition in Newly Diagnosed Adolescents With Crohn Disease
Study Overview
Status
Conditions
Detailed Description
Less than optimal bone health has been seen in children that have inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn disease (CD). This can present as low bone density or altered bone structure, weakening the bones and increasing fragility and fracture risk. As adolescence is especially important in bone development, conditions such as CD during this time can lead to long term bone issues. The underlying mechanisms are not well understood, but what is known is that red bone marrow converts to fat-rich yellow marrow. This study aims to focus on abnormalities in bone marrow, and specifically whether adolescents who have been diagnosed with CD have more bone marrow fat.
The primary hypothesis is that newly diagnosed CD is associated with increased fat levels in bone, which is associated with decreased bone formation and suboptimal bone health. The central objective is to obtain longitudinal data on the differences in bone marrow between healthy adolescents and those with CD. Long term, the investigators want to study how abnormal fat tissue and suboptimal bone health relate to each other.
The study involves 46 adolescents recently diagnosed with CD and 46 healthy adolescents. Eligibility criteria include no other chronic diseases that affect bone health and limited use of bone altering medications in the last three months. The CD adolescents will be matched with healthy adolescents based on age, stage of puberty, and BMI percentile. Additional data on CD participants will be collected via a chart review that will enable us to more fully characterize their CD.
Imaging will include MRIs of the knee. Measurements will include a visual assessment and quantitative marrow fat analysis, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), and peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT). All scans will be for research purposes only. The MRIs will be evaluated for any abnormalities, and if there is an incidental finding, it will be reported to the primary care physician.
Additionally, blood draws will be used to attain and assess markers of bone formation/resorption and to perform immune studies.

Ages Eligible for Study
Accepts Healthy Volunteers
Sampling Method
Study Population
The experimental group will be adolescents aged 13-20 with newly diagnosed CD (within 3 months of diagnosis, based on histologic diagnosis and verified with their gastroenterologist).
The control group will be matched for age (within 1 year), pubertal stage (based on Tanner staging), and BMI percentile. Tanner staging will be based on clinically documented Tanner stage by GI physician for participants with CD and by their primary care physician for control participants. If there is no documented Tanner staging, then it will either be performed by the participants primary care physician, or by a pediatric endocrinologist.

Crohn Disease
This group will be 46 adolescents, ages 13-20, who have been recently (within 3 months) diagnosed with Crohn Disease. All participants will have a two study visits approximately one year apart during which the listed diagnostic testing will be performed. |
Coronal T1 weighted spin echo images will be obtained through the knee with a field of view of 16cm to include distal femoral and proximal tibial metaphyses.
Spin-lattice relaxation (T1) relaxometry acquisition consisting of seven fast spin echo (FSE) acquisitions through the knee.
T1 maps from the T1 relaxometry images will be generated using a two-parameter-fit iterative algorithm developed in-house using IDL software (Harris Geospatial Solutions, Melbourne, FL, USA).
Mean T1 values for each region will be recorded.
The anatomical locations of these regions will be consistent in size for all subjects and location.
The locations chosen for the primary endpoints are ones that are known to be rich in red and yellow marrow, respectively.
Magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
MRS will be performed within a 1 mL voxel situated in the medial aspect of the distal femoral metaphysis.
A single voxel point resolved spectral acquisition (PRESS) technique will be used to acquire non-water suppressed spectra at echo times of 20, 30, 40, and 50 ms using 32 signal averages per echo time with a TR of 2.5 s (total scan time = 5.4 minutes).
Spectral fits using JMRUI MRS processing software (www.jmrui.eu) to the water and methylene/methyl resonances will be used to quantify peak areas and establish T2 corrected fat/(fat + water) ratios.
Blood draw.
Blood draws will be used to attain and assess markers of bone formation/resorption and to perform immune studies.
Specific markers of bone formation that will be assessed include osteocalcin (OC) and procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide (P1NP), and a marker of bone resorption, c-telopeptide (CTX).
We will also evaluate molecular gene signatures from the blood samples that correlate with the previously described bone imaging phenotypes.
At that point, the information will be used to develop a CyTOF panel to evaluate differences in immune cellular populations between CD patients with normal versus low BMD, and matched controls.
