Study Summary

A pilot study to assess the safety and tolerability of an orally administered natural product derived from hops, called xanthohumol, in humans with Crohn's Disease, in order to identify a biological signature of xanthohumol exposure, and to characterize the role of xanthohumol metabolism by intestinal microorganisms in that signature within adults with Crohn's Disease.

Primary Outcome

Aspartate aminotransferase is an enzyme that is often measured in blood as an indication of liver toxicity. Reported as: % abnormal, % new abnormals, and mean change from baseline.
