An Efficacy and Safety Study of Golimumab in Participants With Ulcerative Colitis

April 29, 2013 updated by: Janssen Research & Development, LLC

A Phase 2/3 Multicenter, Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Double-blind Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Golimumab Induction Therapy, Administered Intravenously, in Subjects With Moderately to Severely Active Ulcerative Colitis

The purpose of this study is to assess the effects (good and bad) of golimumab (CNTO 148) therapy in participants with active ulcerative colitis (UC) (sores in the colon).

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This is a randomized (study medication assigned by chance), double-blind (neither the Physician nor the participant know about the study medication), placebo-controlled (an inactive substance; a pretend treatment [with no drug in it] that is compared in a clinical trial with a drug to test if the drug has a real effect), parallel-group (a medical research study comparing the response in 2 or more groups of participants receiving different interventions [treatments]) study to evaluate an appropriate intravenous (through a vein in the arm) golimumab induction dose and to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of intravenous induction dosing with golimumab in participants with moderately to severely active UC. At Week 6, participants will be asked to participate in an additional 1-year maintenance study. Participants not entering the 1-year golimumab maintenance study will be evaluated for safety at Week 16. The duration of study will be 6 weeks for participants who enter the 1-year golimumab maintenance study and 16 weeks for participant who do not enter the 1-year golimumab maintenance study.There are 2 parts in this study. Part 1 is Phase 2 "dose-ranging" portion of study. Participants enrolled in Part 1, will receive a single intravenous infusion of either matching placebo for golimumab or 1 milligram (mg) per kilogram(kg), 2 mg per kg or 4 mg per kg of golimumab. Part 2 of the study is called "dose-confirming" and newly enrolled participants will receive same doses studied in Part 1, until the doses for Part 2 are selected and Phase 3 begins. At the time that the final doses are selected, all newly enrolled participants will receive 1 of the selected doses or matching placebo; this is the start of the Phase 3 portion of the study. Participants will primarily be assessed using Mayo Score (it is a score developed for measuring disease activity). Participants' safety and quality of life will also be monitored throughout the study.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants With Clinical Response
Time Frame: Week 6
Clinical response is defined as decrease from baseline in Mayo score by greater than or equal to 30 percent and greater than or equal to 3, with either a decrease from baseline in rectal bleeding sub-score of greater than or equal to 1 or a rectal bleeding sub-score of 0 or 1. The Mayo score is sum of 4 sub-scores (i.e., stool frequency, rectal bleeding, endoscopic findings, and a physician's global assessment); each rated on a scale from 0 to 3, with higher scores indicating more severe disease. The total Mayo score value ranges from 0 to 12.
Week 6

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants With Clinical Remission
Time Frame: Week 6
Clinical remission is defined as a Mayo score of less than or equal to 2, with no individual sub-score greater than 1. The Mayo score is sum of 4 sub-scores (i.e., stool frequency, rectal bleeding, endoscopic findings, and a physician's global assessment); each rated on a scale from 0 to 3, with higher scores indicating more severe disease. The total Mayo score value ranges from 0 to 12.

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
