Efficacy & Safety in Moderately Active Refractory Ulcerative Colitis Patients

February 8, 2020 updated by: Novartis Pharmaceuticals

A Multi-centre, Double-blind, Placebo Controlled, Parallel Group, Proof of Concept Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety and Tolerability of KRP203 in Subjects With Moderately Active Refractory Ulcerative Colitis

This study is designed as a proof of concept of KRP203 for induction of remission in ulcerative colitis (UC). The purpose of this study is to evaluate clinical benefit of KRP203 in subjects with moderately active refractory ulcerative colitis.

The study will provide safety and tolerability data in this subject population up to eight weeks of treatment with KRP203. Additionally, this study will evaluate the duration of a clinical response to KRP203 by following up responding subjects for an additional 12 weeks.

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

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This is a multi-centre, double-blind, placebo controlled, parallel group, proof of concept study to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of KRP203 in subjects with moderately active refractory ulcerative colitis subjects. In total, approximately 72 subjects will be randomized into the study.

After 30 patients have completed the 8 week treatment period with KRP203 or placebo, there will be an interim analysis to determine preliminary efficacy. The study will consist of up to 28 day screening period (day -35 to -8), baseline period (day -7 to day -1), treatment period (day 1 to day 56), follow-up period and study completion.

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.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. 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 to 65 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Active disease defined by partial Mayo score and modified Baron score with disease extending at least 25 cm from the anal verge
  • Subjects must have inadequately responded or intolerance to 5-ASA therapy

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Subjects receiving treatment for UC (other than 5-ASAs and steroids) within the time frame mentioned in protocol
  • Past or recent history of significant medical illness and/or clinically significant lab abnormalities including but not limited to hematology, clinical chemistry, urine analysis, ECG abnormalities, HIV, Hepatitis B/C
  • Presence or history of underlying metabolic, endocrine, hematologic, pulmonary, ophthalmic, cardiac, blood, renal, hepatic, infectious, psychiatric or any medically unstable condition, as assessed by the primary treating physician which, in the opinion of the investigator, would immunocompromise the subject and/or place the subject at unacceptable risk for participation in a study of an immunomodulatory therapy Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria apply

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

Change in clinical remission rate
Time Frame: 8 weeks
Difference between clinical remission rate of subjects on KRP203 versus placebo
8 weeks

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 Adverse Events as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability
