Conditions
Crohn's Disease
Registration Number
NCT02580864
Lead Sponsor
Société des Produits Nestlé (SPN)
Brief Summary

Individuate possible predictive factors of anti-TNFalfa-induced deep remission in Crohn's disease.

Detailed Description

This trial will be exploratory, open in vitro study on human tissues. 120 patients will be enrolled (Caucasian, male/female,18-65 years old) with moderate-severe active Crohns disease and with indication for anti-TNF therapy according to the normal clinical practice.

Simultaneously, 30 no-IBD controls with no GI disorders, as defined by medical history and standard clinical chemistry values, afferent to the out-patient clinic will be enrolled.
