Summary

This phase 2 trial tests a drug called DISC-0974 in 21 adults with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) who also have anemia caused by inflammation. The study aims to see if the drug safely raises hemoglobin levels compared to a placebo. Participants receive injections of either DISC-0974 or a placebo, and researchers monitor changes in blood counts and side effects over about three months.
