What is being measured

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

  1. Induction Phase: Percentage of Participants With Remission at Week 14, as Determined by the Mayo Clinic Score (MCS)

    The Mayo Clinic Score (MCS) ranges from 0 to 12 and is a composite of 4 assessments (each rated from 0-3): stool frequency, rectal bleeding, endoscopy, and physician's global assessment. Higher scores represent greater disease severity. Remission was defined as MCS less than or equal to (≤)2 with individual subscores ≤1 and a rectal bleeding subscore of 0.

    Measured: Week 14

  2. Maintenance Phase: Percentage of Participants With Remission at Week 66 Among Participants Who Had Achieved a Clinical Response at Week 14, as Determined by the MCS

    The MCS ranges from 0 to 12 and is a composite of 4 assessments (each rated from 0-3): stool frequency, rectal bleeding, endoscopy, and physician's global assessment. Higher scores represent greater disease severity. Remission was defined as MCS less than or equal to (≤)2 with individual subscores ≤1 and a rectal bleeding subscore of 0. Clinical Response is MCS with ≥3-point decrease and 30% reduction from baseline as well as ≥1-point decrease in rectal bleeding subscore or an absolute rectal bleeding score of 0 or 1.

    Measured: Week 66

Secondary outcomes (31)
  1. Induction Phase: Percentage of Participants With Clinical Remission at Week 14, as Determined by the MCS

    The MCS ranges from 0 to 12 and is a composite of 4 assessments (each rated from 0-3): stool frequency, rectal bleeding, endoscopy, and physician's global assessment. Higher scores represent greater disease severity. Clinical Remission is MCS ≤2 with individual subscores ≤1.

    Measured: Week 14

  2. Induction Phase: Percentage of Participants With Clinical Response at Week 14, as Determined by the MCS

    The MCS ranges from 0 to 12 and is a composite of 4 assessments (each rated from 0-3): stool frequency, rectal bleeding, endoscopy, and physician's global assessment. Higher scores represent greater disease severity. Remission was defined as MCS less than or equal to (≤)2 with individual subscores ≤1 and a rectal bleeding subscore of 0. Clinical Response is MCS with ≥3-point decrease and 30% reduction from baseline as well as ≥1-point decrease in rectal bleeding subscore or an absolute rectal bleeding score of 0 or 1.

    Measured: Week 14

  3. Induction Phase: Percentage of Participants With Improvement From Baseline in Endoscopic Appearance of the Mucosa at Week 14, as Determined by the MCS Endoscopic Subscore

    The MCS ranges from 0 to 12 and is a composite of 4 assessments (each rated from 0-3): stool frequency, rectal bleeding, endoscopy, and physician's global assessment. Higher scores represent greater disease severity. Improvement in endoscopic appearance of the mucosa is Endoscopy subscore ≤1.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 14

  4. Induction Phase: Percentage of Participants With Endoscopic Remission at Week 14, as Determined by the MCS Endoscopic Subscore

    The MCS ranges from 0 to 12 and is a composite of 4 assessments (each rated from 0-3): stool frequency, rectal bleeding, endoscopy, and physician's global assessment. Higher scores represent greater disease severity. Endoscopic Remission is Endoscopy subscore = 0.

    Measured: Week 14

  5. Induction Phase: Percentage of Participants With Histologic Remission at Week 14, as Determined by the Nancy Histological Index

    Nancy Histological Index (NHI) is a 5-level classification ranging from grade 0 (No histologically significant disease) to grade 4 (severely active disease). Histologic remission is defined as a Nancy Histological Index of 0 or 1.

    Measured: Week 14

  6. Induction Phase: Change From Baseline to Week 6 in MCS Rectal Bleed Subscore

    Rectal bleeding data were collected via the participant's diaries and each day a participant provided a score from 0 to 3 according to the following definitions: 0 = no blood in the stool; 1 = streaks of blood with stool less than half the time; 2 = obvious blood with stool most of the time; 3 = blood alone passed. The Mayo Clinic Score (MCS) rectal bleeding subscore was calculated as the worst value of three days of daily diary scores closest to anchor dates at baseline and post-baseline. The data was considered non-parametric and was reported using RANK analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). Participants were stratified by concomitant treatment with corticosteroids or immunosuppressants at randomization and disease activity measured during screening (MCS ≤9/MCS ≥10); the model adjusted for these stratification factors along with the baseline rectal bleeding (RB) subscore.

    Measured: Baseline and Week 6

  7. Induction Phase: Change From Baseline to Week 6 in MCS Stool Frequency Subscore

    Stool frequency data were collected via the participant's diaries and each day a participant provided a score from 0 to 3 according to the following definitions: 0 = normal number of stools; 1 = 1 to 2 more stools than normal; 2 = 3 to 4 more stools than normal; 3 = 5 or more stools than normal. The Mayo Clinic Score (MCS) stool frequency subscore was calculated as the average of three days daily diary scores closest to anchor dates at baseline and post-baseline. The data was considered non-parametric and was reported using RANK analysis of covariance (ANCOVA). Participants were stratified by concomitant treatment with corticosteroids or immunosuppressants at randomization and disease activity measured during screening (MCS ≤9/MCS ≥10); the model adjusted for these stratification factors along with the baseline stool frequency (SF) subscore.

  22. Number of Participants With at Least One Adverse Event by Severity, According to National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, Version 4.0 (NCI-CTCAE v4.0)

    All Adverse Events (AEs) were graded for severity using the NCI-CTCAE v4.0. Any AE not specifically listed was assessed per the following 5 grades: Grade 1 = mild; asymptomatic or mild symptoms; clinical or diagnostic observations only; or intervention not indicated. Grade 2 = moderate; minimal, local, or non-invasive intervention indicated; or limiting age-appropriate instrumental activities of daily living. Grade 3 = severe or medically significant, but not immediately life-threatening; hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization indicated; disabling; or limiting self-care activities of daily living. Grade 4 = life-threatening consequences or urgent intervention indicated. Grade 5 = death related to AE. Not all grades are appropriate for all AEs; some AEs have fewer than 5 options. The terms "severe" and "serious" are not synonymous and are independently assessed for each AE. Multiple occurrences of AEs were counted only once per participant at the highest (worst) grade.

    Measured: From Baseline up to Week 78

  23. Number of Participants With Adverse Events Leading to Study Drug Discontinuation

    Measured: From Baseline up to Week 78

  29. Number of Participants With Anti-Therapeutic Antibodies to Etrolizumab at Baseline and During the Study

    A tiered strategy was used to detect and characterize etrolizumab antibodies within this clinical study. When determining post baseline incidence, participants were considered to be ADA positive if they were ADA negative or had missing data at baseline but developed an ADA response following etrolizumab drug exposure (treatment-induced ADA response), or if they were ADA positive at baseline and the titer of one or more post baseline samples was at least 0.60 titer unit greater than the titer of the baseline sample (treatment-enhanced ADA response). Participants were considered to be ADA negative if they were ADA negative or had missing data at baseline and all post baseline samples were negative, or if they were ADA positive at baseline but did not have any post baseline samples with a titer that was at least 0.60 titer unit greater than the titer of the baseline sample (treatment unaffected).

    Measured: Pre-dose at Baseline, Weeks 4, 14, 24, 44, and 66, and Early Termination/End of Safety Follow-Up (up to Week 78)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Etrozulimab in people with Ulcerative Colitis, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 184 sites in 24 countries.

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 7 inclusion and 14 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 Aug 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 184 sites in United States, Germany, Hungary, France, Italy and 19 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 15 Jun 2021). 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?

Induction Phase: Percentage of Participants With Remission at Week 14, as Determined by the Mayo Clinic Score (MCS) (time frame: Week 14). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT02100696, which also lists 3 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 13 Aug 2021.
