New treatment option for Inflammatory Bowel Diseases
Official title Personalized Risk Estimation for Crohn's Disease (PRE-Crohn's): Implementation and Feasibility
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05332639
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- The aim of this study is to develop and assess the feasibility and effect of a web-based, personalized risk-estimation for Crohn's disease (PRE-Crohn's) tool on behaviors and biomarkers associated with risk for Crohn's disease in unaffected first-degree relatives of patients with inflammatory bowel disease. We hypothesize that personalized risk disclosure via the PRE-Crohn's educational tool is both feasible and successful in modifying behaviors associated with Crohn's disease risk and normalizing pre-clinical disease biomarkers when compared to standard Crohn's disease education.
