Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Clinical benefit in routine practice, defined as % of patients with clinical improvement ≥ 3-point in Ulcerative Colitis Disease Activity Index (UCDAI) clinical sub-score (time frame: From Day 1 to end of induction treatment (recommended duration up to 8 weeks)).

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02586259, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
