Gut bacteria tested to fight Crohn's scarring

NCT ID NCT07263880

Summary

This study is testing whether a specific probiotic (Clostridium butyricum) or a sugar supplement (trehalose) can help reduce scarring and inflammation in the intestines of people with a narrowing form of Crohn's disease. Forty participants will take one of these supplements or a placebo for two months before a scheduled colonoscopy. Researchers will analyze tissue and blood samples to see if the treatments are safe and affect markers related to scarring, inflammation, and a cellular cleanup process called autophagy.
