Examining the NUDT15 gene's role in inflammatory bowel disease in Taiwan

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational study focuses on patients diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) at National Taiwan University Children's Hospital. Participants will undergo a blood test to evaluate the NUDT15 gene, which is known to influence the risk of neutropenia when using thiopurines for treatment. The study aims to summarize the prevalence and impacts of NUDT15 gene variants in the context of IBD in Taiwan, analyzing the gene test results alongside other clinical data to improve treatment strategies.
