CT to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Adding GMA to Infliximab in Paediatric Patients With Steroid-refractory Ulcerative Colitis
Clinical Trial to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Adding GMA to Infliximab in Paediatric Patients With Steroid-refractory Ulcerative Colitis
The primary endpoint will be evaluated through the following variables: PUCAI score, IFX levels, and steroid treatment.
Clinical response to IFX will be evaluated through the PUCAI score. The response will be considered clinically significant if PUCAI points continue maintained below 30 during the study period. The IFX response will also be determined by IFX serum levels. A therapeutic IFX level, i.e. for achieving an adequate clinical response, is established above 6 μg/mL. Finally, the necessity, or not, of a steroid treatment during the study period will also be indicative of successful efficacy with GMA.
Study Overview
Detailed Description
The trial has the following objectives:
Primary objective (PO):
The primary endpoint will be evaluated through the following variables: PUCAI score, IFX levels, and steroid treatment.
Clinical response to IFX will be evaluated through the PUCAI score. The response will be considered clinically significant if PUCAI points continue maintained below 30 during the study period. The IFX response will also be determined by IFX serum levels. A therapeutic IFX level, i.e. for achieving an adequate clinical response, is established above 6 μg/mL. Finally, the necessity, or not, of a steroid treatment during the study period will also be indicative of successful efficacy with GMA.
Secondary objectives (SO):
- Quantification of IFX trough and ATI levels, and description of the IFX dose at baseline, 12 and 40 weeks of follow-up.
- Measurement of PUCAI score at baseline, 12 and 40 weeks of follow-up.
- Patients maintaining clinical response off steroids, 12 and 40 weeks of follow-up.
- Patients experiencing flares-ups during the study period.

Experimental: Adacolumn
Adacolumn is a non-pharmacological treatment which reduces the inflammation by removing specifically targeted white blood cells from the blood circulation. The Adacolumn is designed to be used in combination with the Adamonitor and its Adastand, and the Adacircuit. The column has a capacity of 335 mL and is filled with cellulose acetate beads of 2 mm in diameter as the column adsorptive leukocytapheresis carriers. The carriers are bathed in 130 mL of sterile saline until use when the column is primed with additional sterile saline and then with heparinized saline prior to use. Patients will receive 10 sessions with Adacolumn. It would be reduced between 5 - 10, according to the patient´s response and following PI valuation. Patients will receive Adacolumn with IFX for that period of time. Patients will have received previously IFX for 12-16 weeks. visits will be conducted every week, for the application of Adacolumn. |
The study will consist of 10 sessions of Adacolumn® treatment (once per week) and a follow-up period (from week 12 to week 40 since study inclusion).
