Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 75 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: 50 patients with Crohn's Disease and 50 patients with Ulcerative Colitis from 10 centres (Canada, United States, Netherlands and Spain).

Who may be able to join

  • a diagnosis of CD or UC by usual criteria,
  • moderate to severely active CD defined by a CDAI ≥ 220, with confirmed endoscopic activity (CDEIS ≥ 6) or moderate to severely active UC, defined by a Mayo Score ≥ 6, with a Mayo endoscopic subscore ≥ 2,
  • a need for treatment with IFX for induction of remission as clinically indicated
  • patients previously exposed to adalimumab and/or certolizumab who are naïve to infliximab will be allowed to participate.

Who cannot join

  • perianal CD exclusively
  • disease limited to the rectum in patients with UC (i.e., disease must extend ≥ 15 cm from the anal verge)
  • patients with known antibodies to IFX (ADAs) at baseline
  • a contraindication to infliximab therapy

About this study

Official title: Defining and Predicting the Ideal Infliximab Pharmacokinetic Profile Associated With Treatment Efficacy in Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease

The purpose of this study is to develop a predictive model that will allow optimized dosing of infliximab for individual patients

Read the detailed description

The use of pharmacokinetic analyses incorporating relevant determinants of the infliximab serum concentration can be used to develop a predictive model that will allow optimized dosing for individual patients.

Irritable Bowel DiseaseInfliximab administered according to current FDA and EMS approved doses and intervals.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Pharmacokinetic Analysis of Infliximab in patients with moderate to severely active ulcerative colitis and Crohn's Disease

    The primary objective of this study is to define the PK profile of IFX in patients with CD and UC and to determine covariates influencing drug clearance.

    Measured: 24 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Quantification of relative strengths of individual determinants of infliximab pharmacokinetics

    Assessment of potential interactions between these determinants.

    Measured: 24 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis, run by University of Western Ontario, Canada.

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 4 inclusion and 10 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 3 Dec 2015. 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. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

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?

Pharmacokinetic Analysis of Infliximab in patients with moderate to severely active ulcerative colitis and Crohn's Disease (time frame: 24 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01787786, which also lists 5 linked publications.

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 3 Dec 2015.
