NCT ID NCT07356232

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 06, 2026 · Updated 3 times

Summary

This study looks at whether adding a special liquid diet (partial enteral nutrition) to standard medication helps people with active Crohn's disease achieve remission without steroids. About 80 participants will choose to either add the diet or not. The main goal is to see if more people on the diet are in remission after 8 weeks.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Partial enteral nutrition (Kate Farms Peptide 1.5 formula) plus Crohn's Disease Exclusion Diet
What this could lead to
If it works, this could show that combining a special diet with medication is more effective than medication alone for controlling Crohn's disease.
What could go wrong
This is a small, non-randomized study, so results may not apply to everyone. The diet is restrictive and may be hard to follow long-term.
