Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Change in Quality of Life: SF-36 questionnaire [0 and 90 days]
Quality of Life is assessed by Indonesian validated Short Form 36 (SF-36) questionnaire. This questionnaire consist of 36 items/questions that evaluate quality of life in some elements. The elements are change in health (1 item), general health perception (5 items), energy/fatigue (4 items), mental health (5 items), social functioning (2 items), pain (2 items), physical functioning (10 items), role limitations due to emotional problems (3 items) and role limitations due to physical problems (4 items). The score from each question will be summed. Minimum score is 36 and maximum score is 138. Higher score indicates higher quality of life and lower score indicates lower quality of life. Higher score post intervention administration represents a positive outcome
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Change of C-Reactive Protein (CRP) level [0 and 90 days]
Level of CRP is obtained from laboratory test.
- Change of Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) [0 and 90 days]
ESR is obtained from laboratory test.
- Change of Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha (TNF-α) level [0 and 90 days]
Level of TNF-α is obtained from laboratory test
- Change of Interleukin 6 (IL-6) level [0 and 90 days]
Level of IL-6 is obtained from laboratory test
- Change of fecal calprotectin level [0 and 90 days]
Level of fecal calprotectin is obtained from stool examination
- Change of Mayo score [0 and 90 days]
Mayo score is assessed from colonoscopy. 0 = normal 1 = mild (erythema, decreased vascular pattern, mild friability) 2 = moderate (marked erythema, absent vascular pattern, friability, erosions) 3 = severe (spontaneous bleeding, ulceration)
- Number of patients with neutrophils infiltrating crypt epithelium in colon biopsy [0 and 90 days]
Colon biopsy is obtained from colonoscopy and histopathology examination
Other Outcome Measures
- Number of participants with adverse events (AEs) [30, 60 and 90 days]
Number of participants with AE in this study
- Number of participants with serious adverse events (SAEs) [30, 60 and 90 days]
Number of participants with SAEs in this study
