Brief Summary

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

The objective of this study is to constitute cohorts of Crohn versus non-Crohn patients to identify (a) new biomarker(s) of intestinal dysbiosis associated with Crohn disease, and develop a prototype for assaying such marker(s) in blood.
