About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Controlled, Multi-center Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Dose De-escalation of Orally Administered Filgotinib in Subjects With Ulcerative Colitis in Clinical Remission

Participants who were in clinical remission on 200 milligram (mg) filgotinib once daily for at least 2 consecutive quarterly visits in the ongoing SELECTION-LTE study (GS-US-418-3899, NCT02914535), were planned to be rolled over and randomized in this study. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of filgotinib in participants in stable clinical remission on 200 mg filgotinib once daily for whom the dose was decreased to 100 mg once daily compared to participants remaining on 200 mg once daily.

Read the detailed description

Participants were planned to receive the blinded treatment until primary analysis time point. After unblinding at the study primary analysis time point, participants would have received unblinded treatment. The clinical trial was originally designed with the primary endpoint to be assessed at Week 48. Due to early termination of the study, none of the participants completed 48 weeks of treatment. All participants participated in blinded treatment period only and the study was unblinded globally after study completion.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants in Corticosteroid-free Clinical Remission Based on Modified Mayo Clinical Score (mMCS)

    The mMCS is a tool designed to measure disease activity for ulcerative colitis. The mMCS was calculated as the sum of the 3 subscores: stool frequency, rectal bleeding, and endoscopy. Each subscore was graded from 0 to 3 with higher scores indicating more severe disease activity. The total mMCS score ranged from 0 to 9 with higher scores indicating more severe disease activity.

    The mMCS remission was defined as a total score of score ≤2, with endoscopic subscore of ≤1, stool frequency subscore of ≤1, and a rectal bleeding subscore of 0.

    Corticosteroid-free mMCS remission was defined as being free of corticosteroids for at least 12 weeks.

    Measured: Week 48

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Time to Patient-Reported Outcome Based on 2 Items (PRO2) Flare

    PRO2 flare was defined as a PRO2 score worsening of at least 2 points and an absolute PRO2 score of at least 3, with stool frequency subscore ≥2, and rectal bleeding subscore ≥1.

    PRO2 included items of stool frequency and rectal bleeding. The range of each item score was 0 to 3 with higher scores indicating more severe disease.

    Measured: Baseline up to Week 48

  2. Time to ES-Confirmed UC Flare

    An ES-confirmed UC flare was defined as an increase in rectal bleeding subscore by at least 1 point and an increase in stool frequency subscore by at least 2 points and an increase in endoscopic subscore by at least 1 point. Each subscore graded from 0 to 3 with higher scores indicating more severe disease.

    Measured: Baseline up to Week 48

  3. Change From Baseline in C-Reactive Protein (CRP)

    CRP is an acute-phase protein which provides an objective criterion of inflammatory activity.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 4, Week 12, Week 24, Week 36, and Week 48

  4. Change From Baseline in Fecal Calprotectin (FCP)

    Fecal calprotectin, a very stable biomarker, was a 36 kilodalton calcium and zinc binding protein of S-100 protein family which was neutrophil derived. It represents 60% of cytosolic proteins in neutrophils and was a measurement of neutrophil migration to the gastrointestinal tract.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 4, Week 12, Week 24, Week 36, and Week 48

  5. Change From Baseline in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ) Score

    The IBDQ is disease-specific questionnaire used for an assessment of Health Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) in participants with the Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). It comprised of 32 questions divided into four health subscales: bowel symptoms (10 questions); systemic symptoms, including sleep disorders and fatigue (5 questions); emotional function such as depression, aggression, and irritation (12 questions); and social function, meaning the ability to participate in social activities and to work (5 questions). The IBDQ total score was calculated as the sum of the responses (each ranging from 1 [severe problem] to 7 [normal health]) to all 32 questions. Total IBDQ score ranged from 32 to 224 with a higher score indicating a better HRQoL.

    Measured: Baseline, Week 48

  6. Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Treatment-Emergent Serious Adverse Events (SAEs), and TEAEs Leading to Treatment Discontinuation

    An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence, new or worsening of any preexisting condition, in a clinical study participant administered a medicinal product and which did not necessarily had to have a causal relationship with this treatment.

    A TEAE was defined as

    • An AE which had a start date equal to or after the date of the first administration of study drug in this study and no later than 30 days after last administration of study drug.
    • And was either a newly reported event, or a worsening of an existing event.

    Serious TEAE was defined as a TEAE that

    • Resulted in death and was life-threatening;
    • Required in-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization;
    • Resulted in persistent or significant disability/incapacity;
    • Was a congenital anomaly / birth defect;
    • Was medically significant.

    Measured: Baseline up to Week 48

Why it stopped: the planned number of participants needed to ensure adequate precision in the estimations and to draw meaningful conclusions was unlikely to be met, questioning the scientific value and ethical grounds for study continuation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Filgotinib in people with Ulcerative Colitis, run by Lakefront Biotherapeutics NV at 50 sites in 13 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 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Oct 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 50 sites in Poland, France, United States, Germany, Italy and 8 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 4 Oct 2024). 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 in Corticosteroid-free Clinical Remission Based on Modified Mayo Clinical Score (mMCS) (time frame: Week 48). 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 4 Oct 2024.
