Pro-active Fecal Calprotectin Monitoring PROMOTE-UC
Pro-active Fecal Calprotectin Monitoring to Improve Patient Outcomes in Ulcerative Colitis: A Prospective Randomised Control Trial
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 1 May 2026
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Hypothesis: Pro-active home fecal calprotectin testing in patients with Ulcerative Colitis will allow early detection and treatment of inflammation to prevent symptomatic flares. This will result in less steroid use, fewer hospitalizations and a reduced risk of surgery, as well as improved quality of life and adherence to medication.
