About this study

Official title: A Phase 2 Open-label, Long-term Extension Safety Study of Brazikumab in Participants With Moderately to Severely Active Ulcerative Colitis (EXPEDITION OLE)

The purpose of this OLE Study D5272C00002 (Legacy #3151-202-008) is to permit participants who previously enrolled in the double-blind Study D5272C00001 (Legacy #3151-201-008) to receive brazikumab, allowing for long-term observation of safety and efficacy in these participants treated with brazikumab. There are no formal hypotheses to be tested. Safety and efficacy data obtained in this study will be included in regulatory product submissions as appropriate.

Being tested
Brazikumab Maintenance Dose, Brazikumab Induction Dose
Medical subject headings
Colitis, Ulcerative

What participants receive

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

  • Brazikumab Maintenance DoseDrug

    Completers in the lead-in study D5272C00001 (Legacy #3151-201-008) will receive a maintenance dose of brazikumab administered subcutaneously every 4 weeks up to Week 52 (Group A). The SC dose of brazikumab will be administered to all responders/completers in the lead-in study regardless of the prior treatment administered.

  • Brazikumab Induction DoseDrug

    Participants in the lead-in study D5272C00001 (Legacy #3151-201-008) who have not responded to treatment and have met criteria for rescue treatment are considered inadequate/non-responders (Group B). In these eligible participants, IV induction dosing of brazikumab at Week 0, Week 4, and Week 8 will be administered, followed by brazikumab administered subcutaneously every 4 weeks thereafter (up to Week 52).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Brazikumab Maintenance Dose and Brazikumab Induction Dose in people with Ulcerative Colitis, run by AstraZeneca at 36 sites in 11 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 12 inclusion and 23 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Jun 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 36 sites in United States, Poland, Germany, Italy, Japan and 6 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. 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 23 Jun 2026). 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?

Adverse Events (time frame: Through Week 70). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 23 Jun 2026.
