What this Trial Is About

This research focuses on pregnant women diagnosed with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) who are receiving biologic medicines or immunosuppressants. The study aims to understand how medication use and disease activity affect pregnancy outcomes and child development up to 18 years after birth. It is a multicenter, prospective observational study conducted at the University of California San Francisco and 30 other sites across the United States. The study enrolls pregnant women with IBD who are currently taking biologics or immunosuppressants. There is no randomized treatment as it is observational; instead, researchers monitor participants throughout their pregnancy and after birth. Data collected include medication exposure and disease activity to evaluate their influence on pregnancy and neonatal outcomes. Participants provide information through assessments over several years. The main outcome measured is whether children born to mothers with IBD experience developmental delays compared to children without IBD, using the Ages and Stages Questionnaire at 12, 24, 36, and 48 months. The study also examines rates of adverse pregnancy outcomes related to medication exposure. Monitoring continues to capture health and developmental data for up to 18 years after birth.
