What does IBD really look like? Let’s Go There. 💜

Crohn’s & Colitis Awareness Week is just around the corner— a time to shine a light on the real experiences behind Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. IBD doesn’t look like one thing — it shows up in millions of moments, messy, meaningful, and often invisible. It’s managing symptoms with quiet strength, Googling late-night questions you don’t ask out loud, mapping every bathroom on your route, canceling plans when you need rest, and celebrating the days you can show up.

The Foundation’s Let’s Go There campaign shines a light on real stories of resilience and strength. Meet Sarah, who faced years of fear, denial, and frustration after her ulcerative colitis diagnosis as a young immigrant without access to care. Her perspective changed when her own son was diagnosed with very early onset Crohn’s disease—sparking her determination to fight for both of them and to advocate for others living with IBD. Sarah reminds us that there’s always hope when we speak up, connect, and push for a cure together.

A new oral treatment improved clinical remission and endoscopic outcomes for patients with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis who had failed multiple prior therapies, results from two phase III trials showed.

The results, while encouraging, warrant further research, Alan Moss, MD, the Foundation's Chief Scientific Officer, told MedPage Today.

"Obefazimod represents a potential therapy with a new mechanism of action for patients with moderate-severe ulcerative colitis who have failed other treatments," said Moss, who was not involved in the studies. "This short-term study confirms its ability to induce clinical remission and improve colonic inflammation in these patients. However, further studies will be crucial to confirm these benefits over a longer period and in more diverse patient groups." Read more: https://bit.ly/4olysnM
