ADIBD: Anal Dysplasia in Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease and Healthy Controls
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This study is designed to establish the prevalence of anal squamous intraepithelial lesion (ASIL) in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and healthy controls.

Detailed Description
IBD patients attending the Stanford Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) clinic and age-matched healthy controls are screened for eligibility. Informed consent is obtained for eligible subjects. An anonymous self-administered questionnaire is administered to assess risk factors for HPV. For IBD patients, information regarding IBD diagnosis and treatment is obtained.
An anal pap smear is performed at the time of a clinic visit or at the time of an already scheduled colonoscopy. Samples are collected and processed at Stanford pathology where a blinded pathologist reads all specimens. Human Papillomavirus (HPV) DNA testing is performed on all specimens. All patients with anal squamous intraepithelial lesion (ASIL) are referred to a colorectal surgeon for further recommendations or treatment, which includes a high-resolution anoscopy.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Active Comparator: IBD patients on immunosuppression Patients on azathioprine/6-mercaptopurine (6MP), prednisone, methotrexate, infliximab, adalimumab, certolizumab, natalizumab, and etanercept are included. |
Procedure: Anal Pap smear and HPV DNA testing
Anal Pap smear is a standard diagnostic test used for early detection of pre-cancerous cells and anal HPV.
|
Active Comparator: IBD patients off immunosuppressants Patients off immunosuppressants, on 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) agents, antibiotics, or no treatment for IBD are included. |
Procedure: Anal Pap smear and HPV DNA testing
Anal Pap smear is a standard diagnostic test used for early detection of pre-cancerous cells and anal HPV.
|
Active Comparator: Healthy controls Age-matched healthy controls enrolled from the hospital, outpatient clinics, and from the general public via flyers and online advertisements. |
Procedure: Anal Pap smear and HPV DNA testing
Anal Pap smear is a standard diagnostic test used for early detection of pre-cancerous cells and anal HPV.
