Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • IBD (inflammatory bowel disease) - related quality of life

    Mean total inflammatory bowel disease questionnaire (IBDQ - Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire ) score. The total score ranges from 32 to 224, the higher the score the better the quality of life.

    12 months

Secondary Outcomes (18)

  • IBD (inflammatory bowel disease) -related quality of life

    1, 3, 6, 9, 18 and 24 months

  • Endoscopic remission

    6 months

  • Obstructive symptoms

    1, 3, 6, 9, 12, 18 and 24 months

  • Clinical activity

    1, 3, 6, 9, 12, 18 and 24 months

  • inflammatory biomarkers (fecal calprotectin)

    1, 6, 12, 18 and 24 months

  • +13 more secondary outcomes
