About the trial
What the trial wants to find out
The purpose of this study is to characterize participants with Crohn's Disease (CD) and Ulcerative Colitis (UC) treated with Guselkumab in a real-world setting, and to assess the clinical effectiveness (how well the treatment works) in the overall population and in different participant subgroups. Furthermore patient-reported outcomes like fatigue, health-related quality of life (HRQoL), sexuality, work productivity and activity as well as treatment satisfaction will be assessed.
The group in the trial
- Group 1: Moderate-to-Severe Ulcerative Colitis (UC) or Crohn's Disease (CD)
Participants with confirmed diagnosis of moderate-to-severe UC or CD treated with guselkumab as per standard clinical practice will be enrolled. Only data available from clinical routine will be collected in this study. During the observational period, data will be collected at weeks 0 (baseline), 4, 8, 12, 24, 48, 72, and 96, where available as per clinical routine. The respective collection times relate to the first study dose of guselkumab.
