Understanding Ozanimod's MOA Via Mass Cytometry in Ulcerative Colitis (NCT06311123)

High Dimensional Mass Cytometry as a Tool to Understand Ozanimod's Mechanism of Action (MOA)

๐ŸŸข Recruiting Interventional Protocol ๐Ÿ“Š Observational Clinical Research Sponsor: University of California, San Diego

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the mechanism of action of ozanimod in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC). The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Prospectively assess the effects of ozanimod on the cellular composition of intestinal lamina propria and blood by deep immunophenotyping (CyTOF) of immune cell subsets prior and after the drug's administration. 2. Determine whether changes in cell subsets observed via mass cytometry correlate with with clinical or histologic parameters of disease activity. Colonic biopsies and peripheral blood samples will be collected from patients with UC before and after the onset of ozanimod. Researchers will compare intestinal and peripheral leukocytes before and after the drug's administration.
