About this study
Official title: An Adaptive Phase 2, Randomized, Double Blind, Placebo Controlled Study of LY3471851 (NKTR 358) in Patients With Moderately to Severely Active Ulcerative Colitis
The reason for this study is to determine if the study drug LY3471851 is safe and effective in adult participants with active ulcerative colitis (UC). The study treatment will last about 52 weeks.
Read the detailed description
In stage 1, two doses (high and low) of LY3471851 will be compared to placebo. In stage 2, up to two additional doses (to be confirmed) of LY3471851 will be compared to placebo.
LY3471851 (NKTR-358) is a potential first-in-class therapeutic that may address an underlying immune system imbalance in people with many autoimmune conditions. It targets the interleukin (IL-2) receptor complex in the body in order to stimulate proliferation of inhibitory immune cells known as regulatory T cells. By activating these cells, LY3471851 may act to bring the immune system back into balance.

Endoscopic remission is defined as achieving a MMS sub-score for endoscopy=0 or 1 (excluding friability).
Measured: Week 12
Change From Baseline in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ) - Total Score
IBDQ is a 32-item questionnaire that measures four aspects of participants' lives: symptoms directly related to the primary bowel disturbance (10 items), systemic symptoms (5 items), emotional function (12 items), and social function (5 items). Responses are graded on a 7-point Likert scale, where 7 denotes "not a problem at all" and 1 denotes "a very severe problem." The responses are summed to produce a total score ranging from 32 to 224, with higher score indicating a better quality of life. LS Mean was calculated using ANCOVA (analysis of covariance) model with treatment, baseline value, previous advanced therapy failure status (yes/no), baseline corticosteroid use (yes/no), baseline disease activity (MMS: [4 to 6] or [7 to 9]) and region (North America/Europe/Other) as fixed factors.
Measured: Baseline, Week 12
Pharmacokinetics (PK): Trough Concentration of LY3471851 (Ctrough) at Week 12
C-trough is the concentration of drug in the blood immediately before the next dose was administered.
Measured: Predose at week 12

Primary outcome
Percentage of Participants Who Achieved Clinical Remission at Week 12
Time frame: Week 12
Clinical remission is defined as achieving a Modified Mayo Score (MMS) sub-score for rectal bleeding=0, stool frequency=0, or stool frequency=1 with ≥ 1 point decrease from baseline, and endoscopy=0 or 1 (excluding friability). The MMS is a scoring system for assessment of UC and is composed of sub-scores of stool frequency (range: 0 to 3, where 0=normal number of stools, 3=5 or more stools more than normal), endoscopy (range: 0 to 3, where 0=normal or inactive disease, 3=severe disease [spontaneous bleeding, ulceration]), rectal bleeding (range: 0 to 3, where 0=no blood seen, 3=blood alone passed). Total MMS score is sum of all sub-scores and ranges from 0 to 9, with higher scores indicating higher disease activity.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing LY3471851 in people with Colitis, Ulcerative, run by Nektar Therapeutics at 116 sites in 22 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 8 inclusion and 7 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 5 Sep 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 116 sites in Japan, Ukraine, China, Brazil, India and 17 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. 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 5 Sep 2023). 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?
Percentage of Participants Who Achieved Clinical Remission at Week 12 (time frame: Week 12). 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 5 Sep 2023.
