Do you Suffer from Ulcerative Colitis?

Ulcerative Colitis Clinical Trials May Provide More Therapeutic Options!

Ulcerative Colitis is a chronic inflammatory condition that causes ulcers and sores in the digestive tract. This disease has no known cure. It alternates between periods of remission (no active symptoms) and a chronic active disease duration (active debilitating symptoms). These variations are spontaneously triggered, and sometimes may not respond to medication.

Revive Research Institute is conducting multiple Ulcerative Colitis Clinical Trials with the objective to evaluate the efficacy and safety of investigational therapeutic modalities. This study is for people suffering with chronic inflammation of the bowel, to ensure longer periods of remission as opposed to the symptomatic duration.

You may be eligible for Ulcerative Colitis Clinical Trials if you:

Are 18 years and older
Have been diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis
Can comply with all the study procedures

About the Ulcerative Colitis Study

Ulcerative Colitis (UC) is a kind of inflammation of the gut. It affects the lining of your large intestine (or colong), causing inflammation and ulcers.

Approximately 907,000 individuals in the United States (US) are affected by UC, with an incidence rate of 12.2 per 100,000 population per year. Diagnosis of UC is predominantly based on colonoscopy findings.

Our investigators at Revive Research Institute are conducting multiple clinical trials in search of a potential Ulcerative Colitis Treatment. As is the case with all of our clinical trials Studies, after filling out your details in the form above, someone from our research team will give you a call to see if you qualify for the study.

You might be invited onto our study site to complete the screening process. This might include tests, and physical examinations from qualified health professionals including Gastroenterologists and nurses.

*Study procedures, personal medical insurance, or the public health insurance plan are free of charge for you. During the study trial, the study medication, related procedures, and visits will be supplied at no cost.

Get Started: What to Expect?

About Ulcerative Colitis

What is Ulcerative Colitis?

Ulcerative Colitis is a type of inflammatory bowel disease which leads to inflammation and ulceration in the digestive system. It affects the innermost lining of the large intestine. Its symptoms appear slowly rather than immediately.

Ulcerative Colitis is a severe condition that sometimes leads to life threatening conditions. While there is no cure of the disease, care can significantly lessen the disease’s sign and symptoms and lead to long term remission.

What Causes Ulcerative Colitis?

The actual cause for Ulcerative Colitis has yet to be discovered but it is believed that one of the possible reasons includes disruption in the immune system in which abnormal immunological response causes the immune system to attack the digestive tract cells.

What are the Symptoms of Ulcerative Colitis?

The degree of the inflammation and where it occurs might affect the symptoms of Ulcerative Colitis. The following are possible signs and symptoms:

Diarrhea, frequently accompanied with blood or pus
Cramping and discomfort in the abdomen
Genital discomfort
Rectal bleeding
Inability to excrete despite the need to urinate
Loss of weight
Fatigue & Fever

What are the Complications of Ulcerative Colitis?

Ulcerative colitis can lead to the following complications:

Severe Bleeding
Perforated colon (the colon has a hole in its lining)
Severe Dehydration
Bone weakening (osteoporosis)
Inflammation of skin, joints and eyes
Higher chance of colon cancer
Blood clots in veins and arteries are more likely

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Is it possible to get rid of ulcerative colitis?

There is no cure for ulcerative colitis at this time. The aims of treatment are to bring a person back to feel normal, and to minimize the number of flare-ups.

How frequent is Ulcerative Colitis, and who gets it?

In the United States, Ulcerative Colitis affects between 600,000 and 1.5 million individuals. Males and females are both impacted in the same way. Ulcerative colitis is more prevalent in industrialized nations, but it is also growing more prevalent in underdeveloped countries.

Does someone have Ulcerative Colitis because of diet?

There is no clear link between diet and Ulcerative Colitis. Dietary variables, on the other hand, may raise the chance of developing ulcerative colitis. Diets high in sugar, processed carbs, and fat, as well as diets poor in fiber, fruits, and vegetables, are more prevalent in ulcerative colitis patients.

Is Ulcerative Colitis curable?

There is no known cure for Ulcerative Colitis. It is a debilitating disease during which the symptoms persist for long periods of time. There are some periods of remission when the symptoms go away but they eventually do come back when exposed to triggers.
