About this study

Official title: A Phase 2a, Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Parallel Group, Placebo-controlled Trial of IBD98-M Delayed-release Capsules to Induce Remission in Patients With Active, Mild to Moderate Ulcerative Colitis

IBD98-M-2002 is a phase 2a , Randomized, Double blind, Placebo-controlled of IBD98-M Delayed Release capsules in subjects with Mild to Moderately Ulcerative Colitis to investigate the clinical efficacy of IBD98-M delayed release capsules (in a fixed combination) over a 6-week treatment period and 2 weeks follow up.

Read the detailed description

Study IBD98-M-2002 is a Phase 2a, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled study in patients with active, mild to moderate UC. It is being conducted as an exploratory proof of concept study to investigate the clinical efficacy of IBD98-M delayed-release capsules (in a fixed combination) over a 6-week treatment period and a 2-week follow-up period.

Patients will be screened for study enrollment up to 4 weeks prior to randomization (Visit 3). During the screening period, patients will be evaluated by conducting laboratory tests, physical examination, and sigmoidoscopy. To be eligible, patients are to have a score of ≥4 and ≤10 on the UCDAI, and a score of ≥1 on the UCDAI endoscopy subscore. In addition, the diagnosis of UC must be confirmed by endoscopic and histologic evidence in the past; if prior confirmation is not available, this must be done at the time of screening endoscopy. After the screening visits, eligible patients will be randomized to 1 of 3 study groups: (1) IBD98 M 0.8 g/day (mesalamine 0.8 g with sodium hyaluronate 92 mg), (2) IBD98 M 1.2 g/day (mesalamine 1.2 g with sodium hyaluronate 138 mg), or (3) placebo. Up to 51 patients will be enrolled in this study (including drop-out patients), with 17 patients randomized to each treatment group. Patients will be encouraged to take their medication at the same time every day.

During the study, patients will visit the clinic on 7 occasions: 2 visits during the screening period (the second screening visit is the baseline visit); 4 visits during the treatment period, Visits 3, 4, 5, and 6/early termination at Weeks 0, 2, 4, and 6; and 1 visit at the end of the follow-up period, Visit 7 at Week 8. Patients will record the dates/times of dosing (after randomization), concomitant medication, and symptoms and adverse events (AEs) in a daily diary starting at Visit 1 and continuing until the end of treatment (Visit 6/early termination). Rescue medication will not be permitted during the 6 weeks of the treatment period, and patients who are considered to not be benefiting from the therapy can be withdrawn and assigned an appropriate alternative UC treatment by the Investigator. Compliance will be assessed throughout the study by determining the amount of unused medication. Records will be kept of all medication dispensed, used, and returned by each patient. At the end of the study, all unused trial medication and used packaging will be returned to the Sponsor. All study medication will be accounted for and any discrepancies documented.

What is being measured

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

  1. Remission Rate

    Percentage of patients in remission over a 6-week treatment period. Remission is defined as a modified UCDAI (Ulcerative Colitis Disease Activity Index) score of ≤1, with a score of 0 for rectal bleeding and stool frequency, no mucosal friability, and sigmoidoscopy score not exceeding 1).

    Modified UCDAI scoring system is sum of following 4 subscores (parameters). Higher score means worst disease condition.

    Rectal bleeding: score 1 (Streaks of blood), score 2 (obvious blood), score 3 (Mostly Blood) Stool frequency: score 1 (1-2/day> normal), score 2 (3-4/day >normal), score 3 (>4/day> normal) Mucosal appearance: score 1 (Erythema, decreased vascular pattern, Minimal granularity), score 2 (Marked erythema, Friability, Granularity, Absent vascular pattern, Bleeding minimal trauma, No ulcerations), score 3 (Ulceration Spontaneous bleeding) Physician's Global Assessment: score 1 (mild), score 2 (Moderate), score 3 (Severe)

    Measured: 6 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Improvement Rate

    Clinical improvement over a 6-weeks treatment period was defined as a ≥ 3 point reduction from Baseline in the modified UCDAI (Ulcerative Colitis Disease Activity Index ) score.

    Modified UCDAI scoring system is sum of following 4 subscores (parameters). Higher score means worst disease condition.

    Rectal bleeding: score 1 (Streaks of blood), score 2 (obvious blood), score 3 (Mostly Blood) Stool frequency: score 1 (1-2/day> normal), score 2 (3-4/day >normal), score 3 (>4/day> normal) Mucosal appearance: score 1 (Erythema, decrased vascular pattern, Minimal granularity), score 2 (Marked erythema, Friability, Granularity, Absent vascular pattern, Bleeding minimal trauma, No ulcerations), score 3 (Ulceration Spontaneous bleeding) Physician's Global Assessment: score 1 (mild), score 2 (Moderate), score 3 (Severe)

    Measured: 6 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing High dose and Low dose in people with Colitis, Ulcerative, run by Holy Stone Healthcare Co., Ltd at 1 site in Italy.

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 3 inclusion and 5 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 26 Oct 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Italy. 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 14 Aug 2020). 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?

Remission Rate (time frame: 6 weeks). 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 26 Oct 2021.
