About this study

Official title: A Follow-up Phase IIa Study to Evaluate the Long-term Safety and Efficacy Profile of ABX464 Given at 50 mg Once Daily in Subjects With Moderate to Severe Active Ulcerative Colitis.

This study is an open-label study aiming at evaluating the long-term safety and the efficacy profile of ABX464 given once a day (o.d) at 50 mg in subjects who have been previously enrolled in the ABX464-101 clinical study (induction study) and who are willing to continue their treatment.

Read the detailed description

This study is an open-label study aiming at evaluating the long-term safety and the efficacy profile of ABX464 given once a day (o.d) at 50 mg in subjects who have been previously enrolled in the ABX464-101 clinical study (induction study) and who are willing to continue their treatment.

All subjects will receive ABX464 given at 50 mg o.d irrespective of their previous treatment received in the ABX464-101 study (i.e. ABX464 or Placebo).

The actual treatment received by a subject throughout the previous study (ABX464-101) will not be known at the time the subjects enter this follow-up study. This treatment group will be communicated (throughout the investigators) to the subjects at the end of the ABX464-101 study (planned in Q3/2018).

The enrolment in this follow-up study will be based on the willingness of the subject to carry on his/her participation and also based on investigator's judgement.

Subjects will be treated with ABX464 for an overall period of 48 months. Subjects will be followed up weekly during the first month, every two weeks during the second month and then on a monthly basis until M24, then quaterly from M24 to M48.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Treatment-emergent Adverse Events

    Number of treatment-emergent adverse events in ABX464 treated subjects

    Measured: Through subject study treatment, up to 48 months

Secondary outcomes (15)
  1. Total Mayo Score

    The change from Day 0 up to Month 48 in Total Mayo Score. total mayo score is an index and consists of 4 items: stool frequency, rectal bleeding, flexible sigmoidoscopic examination, and a physician global assessment of disease activity.

    Each parameter of the score ranges from zero (normal or inactive disease) to 3 (severe activity). The total mayo score scale ranging is from 0 to 12 The change from baseline of this score is part of the clinical response definition: to get a clinical response, a reduction in Total Mayo score of at least 2 points is required. A higher (in negative) change shows a better clinical response.

    Measured: Up to Month 48

  2. Partial Mayo Score

    The change from Day 0 up to Month 48 in Partial Mayo Score; Partial Mayo score is an index and consists of 3 items: stool frequency, rectal bleeding and a physician global assessment of disease activity.

    Each parameter of the score ranges from zero (normal or inactive disease) to 3 (severe activity). The partial mayo score scale ranging is from 0 to 9.

    A higher (in negative) change from baseline shows a better clinical response

    Measured: Up to Month 48

  3. Number of Subjects With Clinical Response at Month 48

    Clinical response was defined as:

    reduction in Total Mayo Score (TMS) of at least 2 points and >= 30 percent from baseline with an accompanying decrease in rectal bleeding sub-score of >= 1 point or absolute rectal bleeding sub-score of <= 1 point.

    Measured: up to 48 months

  4. Number of Subjects With Clinical Remission at Month 48

    Clinical remission was achieved when all the following criteria were met in the components of the Mayo clinical Score:

    rectal bleeding sub-score = 0 central endoscopy sub-score <= 1 stool frequency sub-score <= 1

    Measured: up to 48 months

  5. Number of Subject With Endoscopic Improvement at Month 48

    oEndoscopic improvement was achieved if the Mayo central endoscopic sub-score is 0 or 1.

    Measured: up to 48 Months

  6. Number of Subjects With Endoscopic Remission at Month 48

    Endoscopic remission was defined as Mayo central endoscopic sub-score = 0

    Measured: up to 48 months

    Measured: Through first year of subject study treatment, 12 months

  13. SF-36 Quality of Life Questionnaire (SF-36 Physical Component)

    Change from Day 0 up to 24 months in SF-36 Questionnaire scores; The SF-36 questionnaire is a self-administered questionnaire containing 36 items.

    It measures health on eight multi-item dimensions, covering functional status, well-being, and overall evaluation of health.

    These items are grouped in 2 distincts components: a physical component (SF-36 physical) and a mental component (SF-36 mental).

    This outcome describes the SF-36 physical component. Each item score ranging is from 0 to 100. A higher positive value in change indicate a better health status. The higher the change from baseline, the better improvement

    Measured: Up to 24 months

  14. SF-36 Quality of Life Questionnaire (SF-36 Mental Component)

    Change from Day 0 up to 24 months in SF-36 Questionnaire scores; The SF-36 questionnaire is a self-administered questionnaire containing 36 items.

    It measures health on eight multi-item dimensions, covering functional status, well-being, and overall evaluation of health.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing ABX464 in people with Ulcerative Colitis, run by Abivax S.A. at 1 site in Belgium.

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 14 inclusion and 2 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 29 May 2025. 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 Belgium. 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. 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 5 Mar 2025). 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 Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (time frame: Through subject study treatment, up to 48 months). 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 29 May 2025.
