Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change from Baseline: Aspartate aminotransferase (AST)
Time Frame: 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks, and 8 weeks
|
Aspartate aminotransferase is an enzyme that is often measured in blood as an indication of liver toxicity.
Reported as: % abnormal, % new abnormals, and mean change from baseline.
|
2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks, and 8 weeks
|
Change from Baseline:Alanine aminotransferase (ALT)
Time Frame: 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks, and 8 weeks
|
Alanine aminotransferase is an enzyme that is often measured in blood as an indication of liver toxicity.
Reported as: % abnormal, % new abnormals, and mean change from baseline.
|
2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks, and 8 weeks
|
Change from Baseline: gamma-Glutamyl transferase (GGT)
Time Frame: 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks, and 8 weeks
|
Gamma-glutamyl transferase is an enzyme that is often measured in blood as an indication of liver toxicity.
Reported as: % abnormal, % new abnormals, and mean change from baseline.
|
2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks, and 8 weeks
|
Change from Baseline: Estimated glomerular filtration rate
Time Frame: 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks, and 8 weeks
|
Glomerular filtration rate is estimated based on blood creatinine concentration per standard nephrology practice.
Reported as: % abnormal, % new abnormals, and mean change from baseline.
|
2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks, and 8 weeks
|
Change from Baseline: Blood urea nitrogen to creatinine ratio
Time Frame: 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks, and 8 weeks
|
Blood urea nitrogen:creatinine is a ratio of serum concentrations of two compounds associated with renal function.
Reported as: % abnormal, % new abnormals, and mean change from baseline.
|
2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks, and 8 weeks
|
Change from Baseline: Complete blood count
Time Frame: 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks, and 8 weeks
|
Enumeration of the various subtypes of blood cells (i.e., red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets), plus indices including mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), and hemocrit.
Reported as: % abnormal, % new abnormals, and mean change from baseline.
|
2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks, and 8 weeks
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change from Baseline: Composite Symptoms: Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI)
Time Frame: 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks, and 8 weeks
|
The Crohn's Disease Activity Index or CDAI is frequently used to assess disease severity.
It gives a score ranging from 0 to over 600, based on a diary of symptoms kept by the patient for 7 days, and other measurements such as the patient's weight and haematocrit.
A CDAI score of less than 150 is considered to be remission, a score greater than 220 is considered to define moderate to severe disease, and a score greater than 300 is considered to be severe disease.
Most major research studies on medications in Crohn's disease define response as a fall of the CDAI of greater than 70 points.
|
2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks, and 8 weeks
|
Change from Baseline: Change in fecal calprotectin levels
Time Frame: 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks, and 8 weeks
|
Fecal calprotectin, a protein associated with gut inflammation and irritable gut syndrome, will be measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and expressed as mean change over time from baseline.
|
2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks, and 8 weeks
|
Change from Baseline: Change in plasma inflammatory markers (pg/mL)
Time Frame: 2 weeks, 4 weeks, 6 weeks, and 8 weeks
|
Circulating pro-inflammatory cytokine concentrations (tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-2, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, , and IL-12p70), will be measured simultaneously with a flow cytometry-based multiplex assay.
The results will be expressed as change from baseline over time.

Plan for Individual participant data (IPD)
Plan to Share Individual Participant Data (IPD)?
IPD Plan Description
We will use the University of California San Diego (UCSD) Metabolomics Workbench for sharing metabolomics datasets and results (including raw data matrices, platform information, and associated metadata).
For activity-based proteomics data, we will use PRIDE or the MassIVE data repository at UCSD.
Nucleic acid sequence data will be submitted to the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) Short Read Archive.
Gene expression data will be submitted to Gene expression Omnibus at NCBI. Microbiome metadata will be deposited into database of Genotypes and Phenotypes.
Metagenomic nucleic acid sequence data will additionally be deposited in Metagenomic Rapid Annotations using Subsystems Technology (MG-RAST) at Argonne National Laboratory, along with associated metadata.
Microbiome summary files (e.g., tables cataloging: sample metadata, taxon or protein family abundances across samples) publicly available through github.
