Official title: Ileal Crohn's Disease and Post-operative Outcome: Prospective Cohort Study of the REMIND Group
Run by Saint-Louis Hospital, Paris, France · NCT03458195 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study is trying to learn more about how surgery for Crohn's disease affects recovery and the chances of the disease coming back by collecting samples and tracking patients after their operation.

✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates for this study are adults aged 18 and older with a confirmed diagnosis of Crohn's disease requiring ileocecal resection.
✕Probably not a fit

What this trial studies
This study focuses on patients with Crohn's disease who are scheduled for ileocecal resection. It aims to collect extensive clinical and biological data to better understand factors influencing post-operative recurrence of the disease. Patients will undergo surgery, and various samples will be collected for analysis, including blood and biopsies. The study will also track clinical outcomes through endoscopic examinations scheduled after surgery to assess recurrence risk.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved management strategies for Crohn's disease patients, potentially reducing the risk of post-operative recurrence.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown success in understanding post-operative outcomes in Crohn's disease, but this study's comprehensive approach to integrating clinical and biological data is relatively novel.
