PN-943 in Adults With Moderate to Severe Active Ulcerative Colitis (UC)

April 24, 2023 updated by: Protagonist Therapeutics, Inc.

A Phase 2 Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Parallel-group, Multi-center Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Oral PN-943 in Subjects With Moderate to Severe Active Ulcerative Colitis

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and clinical efficacy of PN-943 450 mg twice daily [BID] and PN-943 150 mg BID, compared with placebo BID, in subjects with moderate to severe active Ulcerative Colitis (UC).

Study Overview

Detailed Description

The study consists of a 12-week double-blind, placebo-controlled treatment period. Participants will be randomized in a 1:1:1 ratio to PN-943 450 mg BID, PN-943 150 mg BID, or matching placebo BID.

Participants who successfully complete the double-blind period may be eligible for an extended treatment period of 40 weeks duration.
