Summary

This study follows 450 adults who have early signs of inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn's or ulcerative colitis) found during routine colon cancer screening, but who have no symptoms yet. Researchers will collect blood, stool, and tissue samples over time to see how the disease progresses and who develops symptoms. The goal is to better understand the natural history of preclinical IBD.

What this could mean

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

What this could lead to
If successful, this study could help doctors predict who will develop inflammatory bowel disease and possibly prevent it.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It may not lead to any direct medical benefit for participants.
