About this study

Official title: A Multicenter Prospective Cohort Study Comparing Infliximab to Corticosteroids for Moderate to Severe Ulcerative Colitis

The first-line treatment strategy of moderate to severe UC was a important question at issue. The biological agents had potentiality to alter the disease course of UC. The AGA clinical guidelines had conditional recommend that IFX and other biological agene migtht be first-line therapy for high-risk UC patints but only had low grade evidence.We launched this multicenter prospective cohort trial to compare the efficacy and safety of infliximab (IFX) and corticosteroids(CS) when they was used as first-line therapy in UC patients.

Being tested
Infliximab, Corticosteroid

What participants receive

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

  • InfliximabDrug

    Also called IFX

    Infliximab was used as induction therapy in UC patients, the maintenance treatment was decided by the researcher

  • CorticosteroidDrug

    Also called CS

    Corticosteroids was used as induction therapy in UC patients, the maintenance treatment was decided by the researcher

What is being measured

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

  1. clinical remission

    defined as a total score of ≤2 on the Mayo scale and no subscore >1; partial Mayo score ≤ 2, no individual subscore > 1

    Measured: week 14

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. clinical response in induction phase

    defined as a reduction in the partial Mayo score [stool frequency, rectal bleeding, and physician's global assessment] of ≥2 points and of ≥25% from baseline, with an accompanying decrease in rectal bleeding subscore of ≥1 point or absolute rectal bleeding subscore of ≤1 point

    Measured: week 14

  2. mucosal healing in induction phase

    defined as a subscore of 0 or 1 on the Mayo endoscopic component

    Measured: week 14

  3. histological healing in induction phase

    defined as Nancy index score of 0

    Measured: week 14

  4. clinical response in maintenance phase

    defined as a reduction in the partial Mayo score [stool frequency, rectal bleeding, and physician's global assessment] of ≥2 points and of ≥25% from baseline, with an accompanying decrease in rectal bleeding subscore of ≥1 point or absolute rectal bleeding subscore of ≤1 point

    Measured: week 52

  5. mucosal healing in maintenance phase

    defined as a subscore of 0 or 1 on the Mayo endoscopic component

    Measured: week 52

  6. histological healing in maintenance phase

    defined as Nancy index score of 0

    Measured: week 52

  7. quality of life in induction phase

    defined as an increase of ≥16 points in IBDQ score

    Measured: week 14

  8. quality of life in maintenance phase

    defined as an increase of ≥16 points in IBDQ score

    Measured: week 52

  9. adverse events

    as assessed by the incidence of adverse events

    Measured: week 52

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Moderate to Severe Ulcerative Colitis, run by Sixth Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University at 1 site in China.

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 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

clinical remission (time frame: week 14). 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 25 Nov 2022.
