Vedolizumab's Real-World impact on Crohn's disease explored
NCT ID NCT05192863
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This completed observational study followed 72 adults with moderate to severe Crohn's disease who were starting vedolizumab treatment. The goal was to see if the drug could lead to complete remission—meaning no symptoms, normal inflammation markers, and healed bowel walls—after 12 months. Researchers used ultrasound to check bowel inflammation, alongside standard symptom scores and lab tests.
