About this study

Official title: A Phase 2a Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of MEDI2070 in Subjects With Moderate to Severe Crohn's Disease Who Have Failed or Are Intolerant to Anti-tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha Therapy

The study is designed to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of MEDI2070 as compared to placebo. Investigational product will be administered as intravenous infusion in double-blind period, and as a subcutaneous injection in open-label period

Read the detailed description

This is a two-part Phase 2a study compromising a 12-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled, treatment period followed by a 100-week, open label, treatment period to evaluate short-term efficacy, and the short- and long-term safety of MEDI2070 in subjects with moderate to severe, active CD who have failed or are intolerant to anti-TNFα therapy as determined by the investigator. Approximately 120 subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to initially receive a fixed IV dose of MEDI2070 or placebo on Week 0(Day1) and Week 4 (Day 29) during the 12-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled, treatment period. At the completion of the double-blind, placebo-controlled, treatment period (Week 12), subjects will have the option to enter a 100-week, open-label, treatment period where they will receive open-label MEDI2070 (SC) Q4W (Week 12 through Week 112). Subjects will be followed for safety at 3 visits over 28 weeks after their last dose of IP. Subjects will also be contacted by phone 36 weeks after their last dose of IP for safety.

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) Response at Week 8

    A CDAI is a multi-item instrument which measures severity of active Crohn's Disease monitored over 7 days includes subject reported symptoms, physician-assessed signs, and laboratory markers. CDAI score = Sum of weighted scores for subjective items (number of liquid/soft stools, degree of abdominal pain, general well-being); and objective items (associated signs, use of anti-diarrhoeal medication, abdominal mass, haematocrit, daily morning temperature, body weight). CDAI scores range approximately from 0 to 600, higher scores indicating greater disease activity. The CDAI response at Week 8 is defined as either CDAI score of less than (<)150 or CDAI reduction from baseline of at least 100 points, where baseline was last non-missing observation prior to first administration of the study drug. Modified Intent-to-treat (mITT)population was analysed for this end point, which included all subjects who were randomized and received at least 1 dose of study drug in double-blind period.

    Measured: Week 8

Secondary outcomes (17)
  1. Percentage of Participants With CDAI-70 Point Improvement at Week 8

    The CDAI is a multi-item instrument which measures severity of active Crohn's Disease monitored over 7 days and includes subject reported symptoms, physician-assessed signs, and laboratory markers. The CDAI score is calculated by summing weighted scores for subjective items (number of liquid or very soft stools, the degree of abdominal pain over a week and general well-being; and objective items (associated signs, use of anti-diarrhoeal medication, abdominal mass, haematocrit, daily morning temperature, and body weight). The CDAI scores range approximately from 0 to 600, with higher scores indicating greater disease activity. CDAI 70-point improvement is defined as a reduction from baseline in CDAI score of at least 70 points/scores, where baseline was the latest nonmissing observation prior to first administration of the study drug. Subjects in the mITT population were analysed for this end point.

    Measured: Week 8

  2. Percentage of Participants With CDAI Response at Week 12

    The CDAI is a multi-item instrument which measures severity of active Crohn's Disease monitored over 7 days and includes subject reported symptoms, physician-assessed signs, and laboratory markers.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing MEDI2070 in people with Crohn's Disease, run by AstraZeneca at 80 sites in 9 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 May 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 80 sites in United States, Canada, Poland, Spain, Italy and 4 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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 6 Mar 2019). 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 With Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) Response at Week 8 (time frame: Week 8). 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 NCT01714726, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 26 May 2021.
