Summary

The trial will test the hypothesis that edible structures within plant cells (ginger) will have clinically important anti-inflammatory effects on the gut lining of patients with inflammable bowel disease.

To evaluate the safety and tolerability of exosomes with and without curcumin in patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD); To estimate the effect of ginger exosomes or curcumin alone or combined with curcumin on the symptoms and disease score in patients with refractory IBD describe toxicities associated with ginger exosomes; to evaluate the effect of ginger exosomes on biomarkers of inflammation.
