Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Participants will self administer a rectal enema preparation of Pentasa enema 500mg combined with thioguanine 20mg daily for 7 days. This will be followed by a single 5-hour visit to the study clinic during which participants will have a flexible sigmoidoscopy performed by a registered gastroenterologist and rectal biopsies taken to determine tissue thioguanine concentration. Immediately following the flexible sigmoidoscopy, participants will have one further rectal enema with Pentasa and thioguanine and 4 blood samples taken over 4 hours to determine thioguanine concentration.
Adherence will be determined by daily medication record and pill return count.
