Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The primary purpose of the project is to determine what is the best schedule for restarting infliximab in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) specifically ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, who have undergone infliximab infusions before. The primary endpoint would be the failure rate; the need to discontinue infliximab or change treatment. A secondary aim will be to determine if infliximab drug and antibody levels can predict clinical outcomes at 1 year. Other secondary outcomes include comparing short-term and long-term steroid free remission rate, and serum and fecal inflammatory markers in response to infliximab.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Infliximab at weeks 0,2, and 6

In this arm subjects will receive re-induction treatment of infliximab at weeks 0,2, and 6.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Infliximab at weeks 0,2, and 6

Intervention Type DRUG

Infliximab at weeks 0,4, and 8

In this arm subjects will receive re-induction treatment of infliximab at weeks 0, 4, and 8

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Infliximab at weeks 0,4, and 8

Intervention Type DRUG

Infliximab at weeks 0, and 8

In this arm subjects will not be randomized. They will receive re-induction therapy weeks 0 and 8.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Infliximab at weeks 0 and 8

Intervention Type DRUG

For physicians who do not feel comfortable enrolling patients in a randomized trial of infliximab re-induction they will have the option of enrolling their patients in an arm that resumes maintenance therapy only instead at 0 and 8 weeks.
