Impact of Morning Light Therapy in IBD
NCT07207200 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
The pilot study will focus on the effects of morning light therapy (MLT) in adult patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) who have evidence of poor sleep quality and active inflammation. The specific population is at risk for circadian rhythm sleep-wake disorders and has significant potential benefit from circadian realignment, which may lead to improved sleep quality and, ultimately, UC-related inflammatory activity. During an initial one-week lead-in period, participants will obtain baseline circadian-related labs, complete symptom-related surveys, and use a wearable device continuously to obtain baseline sleep-wake data. After the lead-in week, patients will undergo one hour of MLT while wearing wearable devices continuously and completing daily symptom surveys. At the end of four weeks of MLT, patients will obtain post-intervention circadian and inflammatory assessments in addition to completing the same symptom-related surveys.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT07207200
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT07207200 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 30 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, which has 946 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with Inflammatory Bowel Disease appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which Morning Light Therapy is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT07207200 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include New York. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
