NCT02994836

Brief Summary

This study will be a multicentre prospective randomized trial to assess the percentage of patients with IBD who, after stopping anti-TNF treatment, have sustained clinical remission at one year compared to those in which the treatment is continued at stable doses

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Patients diagnosed with IBD by the usual criteria; both Crohn's and ulcerative colitis disease.
  • Patients older than 18 years.
  • In the case of patients with Crohn's disease the indication treatment with anti-TNF it must have been for luminal involvement (no perianal).
  • Are currently in clinical remission.
  • The clinical remission period with the drug at non-intensified dose it must have been at least 6 months.
  • The administration of ≥10 mg/kg/8 weeks or 5 mg / kg / ≤ 4 weeks, in the case of infliximab, and 40 mg / week, in the case of adalimumab, is considered an intensified dose.
  • In patients with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis disease, at baseline colonoscopy (made up to 3 months prior to the screening visit) should not be "significant" injuries.
  • In the case of patients with Crohn's ileal or ileocolic disease, in magnetic resonance whole should not be "significant" injuries.(made up to 3 months prior to the screening visit)

You may not qualify if:

  • Age less than 18 years.
  • Patients who have been treated with anti-TNF for other indication than the IBD.
  • Patients who are not receiving concomitant treatment with immunosuppressants (thiopurine or methotrexate) at the moment (and in the previous 3 months).
  • Patients undergoing bowel resection surgery; therefore, patients who began anti-TNF therapy to prevent or treat postoperative recurrence in Crohn's disease will be excluded.
  • Presence of "significant" endoscopic or radiological lesions
  • Advanced chronic illness or any other condition that prevents the patient from coming to the clinic for monitoring or follow-up.
  • Patients who are pregnant, breastfeeding or intending to become pregnant during the course of the study.
  • Refusal to give consent for participation in the study.
