About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Phase 3 Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Vedolizumab Intravenous as Maintenance Therapy in Pediatric Subjects With Moderately to Severely Active Crohn's Disease Who Achieved Clinical Response Following Open-Label Vedolizumab Intravenous Therapy

Vedolizumab is a medicine that helps to reduce inflammation and pain in the digestive system. In this study, children and teenagers with moderate to severe Crohn's disease will be treated with vedolizumab.

The main aim of the study is to check if participants achieve remission after treatment with the vedolizumab. Remission means symptoms improve or disappear and an endoscopy shows no signs of inflammation.

Participants will receive 3 infusions of vedolizumab over 6 weeks. Then, those who have a clinical response will receive either a high dose or low dose of vedolizumab once every 8 weeks. They will receive the same dose every time.

Read the detailed description

The drug being tested in this study is called vedolizumab. Vedolizumab is being tested to treat pediatric participants who have moderately to severely active CD. The drug is tested and approved in adults in approximately 70 countries. Participants to be enrolled must have failed response to, lost response to, or been intolerant to at least 1 of the current standard of care (SOC) induction and maintenance therapies for CD including exclusive and/or partial enteral nutrition therapy, immunomodulators (e.g., azathioprine [AZA], 6-mercaptopurine [6-MP], methotrexate [MTX]), and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) antagonists.

The study will enroll approximately 120 patients.

During the Induction Period participants will receive 3 doses of vedolizumab IV infusion at Day 1, Week 2, and Week 6 based on their weight at Baseline as:

  • Participants 10 to 15 kg, Vedolizumab 150 mg
  • Participants >15 to <30 kg, Vedolizumab 200 mg
  • Participants ≥30 kg, Vedolizumab 300 mg

At Week 14, participants who achieve clinical response will be randomly assigned (by chance, like flipping a coin) in a 1:1 ratio to one of the 2 double-blind dose groups (high dose and low dose), stratified by previous exposure/failure to TNF-α antagonists therapy or naive to TNF-α antagonists therapy, and by weight groups. Participants will receive vedolizumab IV infusions every 8 weeks (Q8W) up to Week 46 during the Maintenance Period as follows:

  • Participants ≥30 kg, Vedolizumab 300 mg (High dose) or 150 mg (Low dose)
  • Participants >15 to <30 kg, Vedolizumab 200 mg (High dose) 100 mg (Low dose)
  • Participants 10 to 15 kg, Vedolizumab 150 mg (High dose) or 100 mg (Low dose)

The dose will remain blinded to the participant and study doctor during the study (unless there is an urgent medical need). All participants will be administered vedolizumab via IV infusion. In participants who demonstrate lack of maintenance of clinical response during the Maintenance Period the dose will be escalated in a blinded fashion to the high dose in their weight group based on the weight at the time of the worsening of disease. In addition one-time rescue therapy with corticosteroids is allowed during Maintenance Period.

This multi-center trial will be conducted worldwide. After the Week 54, participants may be eligible to continue receiving vedolizumab in extension study MLN0002-3029. Participants who do not maintain corticosteroid-free clinical response at week 54 will undergo an end-of-study (EOS) or ET visit, and a safety visit 18 weeks after the last dose of vedolizumab followed by 2 years of long term follow-up (up to 104 weeks), in addition these participants will then be eligible to enter study MLN0002-3029 for an observational LTFU period of 2 years after the last dose of study drug.

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Participants With Clinical Remission at Week 54 Based on Pediatric Crohn's Disease Activity Index (PCDAI) Score ≤10

    Clinical remission is defined by PCDAI score ≤10. The PCDAI was specifically designed for use in children. The PCDAI includes a child-specific item: the height velocity variable as well as three laboratory parameters: hematocrit (HCT) (adjusted for age and sex), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), and albumin level. The PCDAI score ranges from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating more active disease. A score of <10 will be consistent with inactive disease, 11 to 30 will indicate mild disease, and >30 will indicate moderate to severe disease. A decrease of 12.5 points is taken as evidence of improvement.

    Measured: Week 54

  2. Percentage of Participants With Endoscopic Response at Week 54 Based on Simple Endoscopic Score for Crohn's Disease [SES-CD] Score

    Endoscopic response is defined as at least a 50% reduction in SES-CD score from Baseline. The overall SES-CD score ranges from 0 to 56 and is the sum of 4 variables (ie, size of ulcers [cm], ulcerated surface, affected surface [%], and presence of narrowing) across 5 bowel segments (ie, rectum, descending and sigmoid colon, transverse colon, ascending colon, and ileum). Each variable is coded from 0 to 3 based on severity, where 0 is none or not severe and 3 is the most severe case, with the sum of the scores for each variable ranging from 0 to 15, except for presence of narrowing. Presence of narrowing ranges from 0 to 11 since a severity of 3 represents a narrowing which a colonoscope cannot be passed and, thus, can only be observed once among the bowel segments. The segmental SES-CD score is the sum of the 4 variables for each bowel segment and can range from 0 to 12, where each individual variable score ranges from 0 to 3.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 May 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 96 sites in United States, Poland, Israel, Italy, United Kingdom and 13 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?

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?

Contact Takeda Contact (+1-877-825-3327, medinfoUS@takeda.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Percentage of Participants With Clinical Remission at Week 54 Based on Pediatric Crohn's Disease Activity Index (PCDAI) Score ≤10 (time frame: Week 54). The study lists 2 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 5 May 2026.
