About this study

Official title: Regulatory Post-Marketing Surveillance Study (Usage Results Study) of Kynteles Injection (Vedolizumab) for the Approved Indications in South Korea

In this study, participants with ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease or pouchitis will be treated with Kynteles injection (Vedolizumab) according to their clinic's standard practice.

The main aim of the study is to check for side effects from treatment with Kynteles injection (Vedolizumab). Another aim is to learn how many participants have improved symptoms after treatment with Kynteles injection (Vedolizumab).

Read the detailed description

This is a non-interventional, prospective, post-marketing study of participants with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) (ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn's disease (CD)), who have had an inadequate response with, lost response to, or were intolerant to conventional therapy or an TNF-alpha antagonist or participants with pouchitis, who have undergone proctocolectomy and ileal pouch anal anastomosis (IPAA) for UC, and have had an inadequate response with, or lost response to antibiotic therapy. This study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Kynteles injection (Vedolizumab) in a routine clinical practice setting under real world conditions.

This study will enroll approximately 600 participants. The data will be prospectively collected, at the centers from routinely scheduled follow-up visits and recorded into electronic case report forms (e-CRFs).

This multi-center trial will be conducted in South Korea. The overall time for data collection in the study will be approximately 6 years.

Study groups in NCT04799496
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Kynteles Injection (Vedolizumab)Participants with moderately to severely active UC and CD, who have had an inadequate response with, lost response to, or were intolerant to either conventional therapy or a tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) antagonist or participants with pouchitis, who have undergone proctocolectomy and IPAA for UC, and have had an inadequate response with, or lost response to antibiotic therapy and have initiated Kynteles injection (Vedolizumab) treatment in a routine clinical practical setting in South Korea, will be observed prospectively.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)

    Measured: Baseline up to 56 weeks

  2. Percentage of Participants With Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs)

    Measured: Baseline up to 56 weeks

  3. Percentage of Participants With Serious Adverse Drug Reactions (SADRs)

    Measured: Baseline up to 56 weeks

  4. Percentage of Participants With Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESIs)

    Measured: Baseline up to 56 weeks

  5. Percentage of Participants With Unexpected Adverse Events (AEs)

    Measured: Baseline up to 56 weeks

  6. Percentage of Participants With Unexpected ADRs

    Measured: Baseline up to 56 weeks

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Percentage of Participants With Clinical Response

    Clinical response: reduction of Mayo score of >=3 points and >=30 percent (%) from baseline score, with an accompanying decrease in rectal bleeding sub-score >=1 point/an absolute rectal bleeding sub-score of <=1 point in UC participants; and reduction of Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) score >=70 points from baseline score in CD participants. Mayo score consists of 4 variables: stool frequency, rectal bleeding, physician rating of disease activity, and endoscopic findings. Each graded from 0-3. Total score range of 0-12. Higher scores indicating more severity. CDAI assesses CD based on clinical signs such as number of liquid stools, intensity of abdominal pain, general wellbeing (subjective), and presence of complications, use of antidiarrheal, presence of abdominal mass, physical examination and hematocrit (objective). CDAI score is equal to sum of weighted scores for subjective and objective items. Total score ranged from 0-600 points. Higher score indicating more severity.

    Measured: Baseline up to 56 weeks

  2. Percentage of Participants With Clinical Remission

    Clinical remission: Mayo score <=2; no individual sub-score greater than (>) 1 point in UC; CDAI score <150 points in CD; and Modified Pouchitis Disease Activity Index (mPDAI) score <5 and reduction in overall score by greater than or equal to (>=) 2 points from baseline score in pouchitis. Mayo score consists of 4 variables: stool frequency, rectal bleeding, physician rating of disease activity, endoscopic findings. Each graded from 0-3. Total score range: 0-12. Higher scores-more severity. CDAI assesses CD based on clinical signs-number of liquid stools, intensity of abdominal pain, general wellbeing (subjective), and presence of complications, use of antidiarrheal, presence of abdominal mass, physical examination, hematocrit (objective). CDAI score: sum of weighted scores for subjective and objective items. Total score:0-600 points. Higher score-more severity. mPDAI score ranges from 0-12 where <5=quiescent; 5-8=moderately active; 9-12=severely active disease.

    Measured: Baseline up to 56 weeks

  3. Percentage of Participants With Mucosal Healing

    Mucosal healing is defined as: the Mayo endoscopic sub-score of less than or equal to (<=) 1 point in the UC participants; and Crohn's Disease Endoscopic Index of Severity (CDEIS) score less than (<) 3.5 points in the CD participants. Mayo score consists of 4 variables: stool frequency, rectal bleeding, physician rating of disease activity, and endoscopic findings. Each graded from 0-3. Total score range of 0-12. Higher scores indicating more severity. CDEIS is an index of determining the severity of CD. The CDEIS considers rectum, sigmoid and left colon, transverse colon, right colon, ileum in terms of: deep ulcerations, superficial ulcerations, surface involved by disease and ulcerated surface measured. The presence of ulcerate and non-ulcerated stenosis will be recorded in each segment. Scale ranges from 0-44 with a higher score indicating greater severity of disease.

    Measured: Baseline up to 56 weeks

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 With Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) (time frame: Baseline up to 56 weeks). The study lists 6 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?
