What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT01947816
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
HumiraHumira 40 mg (marketed product) eow for subcutaneous injection after initial dosage of 160 mg and 2nd dosage of 80 mg in two weeks after the initial administration, for up to 52 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Adverse Drug Reactions and Serious Adverse Drug Reactions

    Adverse drug reactions are defined as adverse events for which the causal relation with Humira cannot be ruled out. Serious adverse drug reactions are adverse drug reaction(s) which have been assessed to be serious based on company criteria.

    Measured: Up to Week 52

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Change From Baseline in CRP Levels Over Time

    Measured: Weeks 4, 8, 24, 52 of study drug administration, and at study drug discontinuation (up to Week 52)

  2. Change From Baseline in Mayo Score Over Time

    The Mayo score ranges from 0 (normal or inactive disease) to 12 (severe disease) and is calculated as the sum of 4 subscores (stool frequency, rectal bleeding, endoscopy, and physician's global assessment [PGA]), each of which ranges from 0 (normal) to 3 (severe disease). A negative change in Mayo score indicates improvement.

    Measured: Weeks 24, 52, at study drug discontinuation (up to Week 52), and at final assessment (up to Week 52)

  3. Mayo Endoscopic Sub-Score Over Time

    The endoscopist evaluated each observed segment of the colon (rectum, sigmoid, descending colon, transverse colon, ascending colon/cecum) by using the classification as follows: 0=Normal or inactive disease; 1=Mild disease (erythema, decreased vascular pattern, mild friability); 2=Moderate disease (marked erythema, absent vascular pattern, friability, erosions); 3=Severe disease (spontaneous bleeding, ulceration).

    Measured: Weeks 24, 52, at study drug discontinuation (up to Week 52), and at final assessment (up to Week 52)

  4. Change From Baseline in Partial Mayo Score Over Time

    The Partial Mayo score (Mayo score without endoscopy) ranges from 0 (normal or inactive disease) to 9 (severe disease) and is calculated as the sum of 3 subscores (stool frequency, rectal bleeding and physician's global assessment [PGA]), each of which ranges from 0 (normal) to 3 (severe disease). A negative change in Partial Mayo score indicates improvement.

    Measured: Weeks 4, 8, 16, 24, 52, when discontinued (up to Week 52), at final assessment (up to Week 52)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ulcerative Colitis, run by AbbVie.

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 1 inclusion and 6 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 May 2019. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 13 May 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Participants With Adverse Drug Reactions and Serious Adverse Drug Reactions (time frame: Up to Week 52). 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 13 May 2019.
