About this study

Official title: A Multicenter International Study of the Long-term Safety of Infliximab (REMICADE) in Ulcerative Colitis

The purpose of this study is to evaluate long-term safety information of infliximab in patients who have participated in infliximab clinical studies in ulcerative colitis.

Read the detailed description

This is a long term, multicenter, international safety study to evaluate targeted long-term safety information on patients who have participated in infliximab(Remicade) clinical studies in ulcerative colitis that require long-term safety follow-up. All patients who received at least one dose of study drug (infliximab or placebo) in the primary studies (C0168T37 ,C0168T46, C0168T72) are eligible to participate in this long-term safety follow-up study (C0168T62). Patients will begin participation in C0168T62 at the time of their last safety visit in the primary study and will be followed for 5 years. No study agent will be administered. Information on deaths, serious infections, new malignancies (including colorectal cancer) and new autoimmune diseases and surgical procedures (including colectomy) and hospitalizations for the treatment of ulcerative colitis will be collected. Information about possible delayed allergic reactions (possible fever, rash, fatigue, joint pain) will also be collected if patients received infliximab after the end of the primary study. In addition, data on dysplasia of the colon will be collected from patients who were identified in the primary study to be at high-risk for colon cancer and were required per protocol to undergo a follow-up colonoscopy as part of long-term safety follow-up. All adverse events, including non-serious adverse events, will also be collected.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of patients with adverse events as a measure of safety

    Long-term safety will be evaluated by assessment of serious infections,new malignancies (including colorectal cancer), new autoimmune diseases, death, delayed hypersensitivity (serum sickness-like) reactions, or dysplasia of the colon and other non-serious adverse events. Non-serious adverse events will be collected for participants continuing at the beginning of collection of non-serious adverse events.

    Measured: 5 years

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Number of patients with malignancies by malignancy type

    Number of patients with malignancies by malignancy type (ie, lymphoma, nonmelanoma skin cancers, other malignancies)

    Measured: 5 years

  2. Number of patients with serious infections by type of infection

    Measured: 5 years

  3. Number of patients with surgical procedures (including colectomy) for the treatment of ulcerative colitis

    Measured: 5 years

  4. Number of patients with hospitalizations for the treatment of ulcerative colitis

    Measured: 5 years

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ulcerative Colitis, run by Janssen Research & Development, LLC at 102 sites in 15 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 2 inclusion and 1 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 6 Jul 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 102 sites in United States, Canada, Australia, United Kingdom, France and 10 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Number of patients with adverse events as a measure of safety (time frame: 5 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00207688, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 6 Jul 2018.
