What is being measured

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

  1. sustained clinical remission

    Number of patients with sustained clinical remission at week 52, defined as simple clinical colitis activity index (SCCAI) <3 AND no need for initiation of new treatment, escalation of therapy, UC related hospitalization or colectomy correlated to the RD score at baseline.

    Measured: week 52

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. endoscopic remission Mayo

    Number of patients with Mayo endoscopic subscore of 0 after 52 weeks correlated to the RD score at baseline.

    Measured: week 52

  2. endoscopic remission UCEIS

    Number of patients with UCEIS of 0 after 52 weeks correlated to the RD score at baseline.

    Measured: week 52

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ulcerative Colitis, run by Universitaire Ziekenhuizen KU Leuven at 2 sites 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 3 inclusion and 8 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 27 Jun 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites 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.

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.

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?

sustained clinical remission (time frame: week 52). 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 NCT04408703, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 27 Jun 2024.
