Remote adapted physical activity program to improve life for adults with IBD

Official title: Pilot Feasibility and Impact Study of a Remote Adapted Physical Activity Program on the Quality of Life of Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)

Run by Raincy Montfermeil Hospital Group · NCT07191106 · Data updated 2026-11-12

This pilot will test whether a home-delivered adapted physical activity program can improve quality of life for adults with Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis.

Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are adults (18+) with a confirmed IBD diagnosis for at least six months who are motivated, medically cleared for exercise, have internet access and a compatible device, and are not already highly physically active.

Probably not a fit

Patients with medical contraindications to exercise, significant psychological disorders that prevent participation, those already engaging in very high levels of physical activity, or those without internet/device access are unlikely to benefit from this program.

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

What this trial studies

This pilot interventional program delivers an adapted physical activity (APA) regimen remotely using the MOOV+ application to adults with inflammatory bowel disease. Participants must be at least 18, have a confirmed IBD diagnosis for six months or more, medical clearance for exercise, and internet access; highly physically active individuals are excluded. The program is designed to provide light-to-moderate tailored exercise sessions with remote monitoring and guidance and will measure changes in quality of life and feasibility outcomes. The trial is conducted at GHI Le Raincy Montfermeil and CHU Nantes, with collaboration from Janssen Cilag S.A.S.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the program could improve patients' quality of life, reduce fatigue, and make tailored exercise easier to access for people with IBD.

How similar studies have gone: Previous small studies and exercise programs in IBD have shown promise for symptom and quality-of-life improvements, but remotely delivered adapted physical activity programs remain relatively novel and less well tested.
