Study of XmAb942 in Healthy Participants and Participants With Ulcerative Colitis

September 11, 2026 updated by: Xencor, Inc.

A Phase 1, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study in Healthy Participants Followed by a Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Phase 2 Study in Participants With Moderate-To-Severe Active Ulcerative Colitis.

The Phase 1 study described herein will evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of XmAb942 in healthy volunteers (Parts A and B). Part C of this study will be a Phase 2 study to evaluate XmAb942 in participants with ulcerative colitis (UC).

Detailed Description

This study consists of 3 parts, as follows:

Part A: Single ascending dose (SAD) in healthy volunteer participants, will entail administration of XmAb942 or matching placebo at 3 different dose levels of XmAb942.

Part B: Multiple ascending dosing for up to 3 doses, will entail administration of XmAb942 or matching placebo at 2 different dose levels of XmAb942.

Part C: Participants with moderately to severely active UC to receive 3 different dose levels of XmAb942 or placebo during a 12-week induction period and single dose level of XmAb942 during a 40-week maintenance period, followed by a 36 follow-up period.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Incidence, nature, and severity of treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) of XmAb942 in healthy volunteers (Part A)
Time Frame: 20 weeks
20 weeks
Incidence, nature, and severity of treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs) of XmAb942 in healthy volunteers (Part B)
Time Frame: 28 weeks
28 weeks
Clinical remission based on modified mayo score (MMS), defined as MMS ≤ 2 with Mayo endoscopic score (MES) of 1, rectal bleeding subscore (RBS) of 0, and stool frequency subscore (SFS) of 0-1.
Time Frame: 12 weeks
A composite score of ulcerative colitis (UC) disease activity on a scale of increasing severity from 0-9. It is calculated by adding the results from Mayo endoscopic subscore (MES) which measures GI bleeding, stool frequency subscore (SFS) which measures stool frequency per day, and rectal bleeding subscore (RBS), which measures presence of blood during stool passing. Each subscore is a scale of increasing severity from 0 to 3.
