What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Olokizumab (OKZ)Drug

    Also called CDP6038

    Subjects will receive one of the following treatment regimens as subcutaneous injection solution on Weeks 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 and 14 of the Treatment Period:

    • OKZ 120 mg every 2 weeks
    • OKZ 240 mg every 2 weeks
    • OKZ 120 mg every 2 weeks, with a loading dose of OKZ 480 mg at Week 0

    1.6 mL of OKZ drug substance presented in a glass vial with a 1.2 mL extractable volume at a concentration of 100 mg/mL in the formulation buffer, containing 25 mM sodium citrate, 90 mM sodium chloride, 0.02 % (weight/volume) polysorbate 80, pH 6.0.

  • PlaceboDrug

    Subjects will receive Placebo every 2 weeks as a subcutaneous injection solution (0.9% sodium chloride preservative-free for injection) on Weeks 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 and 14 of the Treatment Period.

  2. Percentage of subjects with clinical remission as measured by the Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) at Week 16

    Measured: Week 16

  3. Change from Baseline in the Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) to Week 16

    Measured: From Baseline to Week 16

  4. Change from Baseline in the Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ) total score at Week 16

    Measured: From Baseline to Week 16

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Olokizumab (OKZ) in people with Crohn's Disease, run by UCB BIOSCIENCES GmbH.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Oct 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of subjects with clinical response or remission as measured by the Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) at Week 8 (time frame: Week 8). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Oct 2012.
