About this study

Official title: A Phase 3, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Double-Blind Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Risankizumab Subcutaneous Induction Treatment in Subjects With Moderately to Severely Active Crohn's Disease

Crohn's disease (CD) is a long-lasting disease that causes severe inflammation (redness, swelling), in the digestive tract, most often affecting the bowels. It can cause many different symptoms including abdominal pain, diarrhea, tiredness, and weight loss. This study will assess how safe and effective risankizumab subcutaneous (SC) induction treatment is in treating moderately to severely active CD in adult participants.

Risankizumab is an approved drug for adults with CD. This study comprises of a Period A, a Period B, and a Period C. In Period A, participants are placed in 1 of 2 groups to receive either risankizumab SC Dose A or Placebo. In Period B, based on response, participants will receive risankizumab SC Dose B or Placebo. Participants who do not have improvement in CD symptoms at Week 12 will receive risankizumab SC Dose C and participants with worsening CD symptoms in period B will receive risankizumab SC. In Period C, eligible participants will receive open-label risankizumab SC Dose D. Approximately 276 adult participants with a diagnosis of moderately to severely active CD will be enrolled in approximately 250 sites globally.

Participants will receive SC induction treatment of risankizumab or matching placebo for up to 24 weeks in Period A and B followed by an open-label risankizumab extension in Period C for 52 weeks. The duration of the study will be approximately 93 weeks.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants With Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) Clinical Remission (CDAI < 150)

    The CDAI consists of 8 components; 7 are based on participant diary entries, participant interviews, physical examinations, measurement of body weight and height and 1 is based on laboratory analysis. CDAI clinical remission of Crohn's disease is defined as CDAI < 150

    Measured: Week 12

  2. Percentage of Participants With Endoscopic Response

    The Simple Endoscopic Score for Crohn's Disease (SES-CD) assesses endoscopic disease severity by evidence of active intestinal mucosal inflammation. Endoscopic response is defined as a decrease in SES-CD > 50% from Baseline (or for participants with isolated ileal disease and a Baseline SES-CD of 4, at least a 2-point reduction from Baseline)

    Measured: Week 12

  3. Number of Participants Experiencing Adverse Events

    An AE is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation participant administered a pharmaceutical product which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this treatment.

    Measured: Up to approximately 96 weeks

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Percentage of Participants With Clinical Remission

    Clinical remission is defined as using the average daily Stool Frequency (SF) ≤ 2.8 and not worse than Baseline AND average daily Abdominal Pain (AP) score ≤ 1 and not worse than Baseline.

    Measured: Week 12

  2. Percentage of Participants With Endoscopic Remission

    Endoscopic remission: SES-CD ≤ 4 and at least a 2 point reduction versus baseline and no subscore greater than 1 in any individual variable

    Measured: Week 12

  3. Percentage of Participants With Ulcer-Free Endoscopy

    Ulcer-free endoscopy: SES-CD ulcerated surface subscore of 0 in participants with SES-CD ulcerated surface subscore ≥ 1 at Baseline

    Measured: Week 12

  4. Change From Baseline of Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy (FACIT)-Fatigue

    The FACIT-Fatigue scale is a 13-item tool that measures an individual's level of fatigue during their usual daily activities over the past 7 days. Each of the fatigue and impact of fatigue items are measured on a 5-point Likert scale. The FACIT Fatigue Scale is the sum of the individual 13 scores and ranges from 0 to 52 where higher scores indicate better the quality of life. A positive change from baseline indicates improvement.

    Measured: Week 12

  5. Percentage of Participants with a CR-100 Clinical Response

    CR-100 defined as at least a 100-point reduction from Baseline in CDAI

    Measured: Week 4

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Risankizumab SC in people with Crohn's Disease, run by AbbVie at 179 sites in 20 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 5 inclusion and 5 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Sep 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 179 sites in United States, China, South Korea, United Kingdom, Chile and 15 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 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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 Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) Clinical Remission (CDAI < 150) (time frame: Week 12). The study lists 3 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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 9 Sep 2025.
