What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Percentage of Participants with Clinical Remission
Percentage of participants achieving Modified Mayo Score (mMS) <=2 with stool frequency subscore (SFS) = 0 or 1 (up to 1-2 stools more than normal), rectal bleeding subscore (RBS) = 0 (no blood seen) and endoscopic subscore (ES) = 0 or 1 (normal appearance of mucosa or mild disease) at Week 12. mMS is a composite score of ulcerative colitis disease activity, given by the sum of three subscores: SFS, RBS and ES. Each subscore is measured on a scale from 0 to 3, with higher values associated with greater severity.
Measured: At Week 12
Secondary outcomes (17)
Change in Partial Modified Mayo Score (pmMS)
Change in pmMS from baseline to Week 2. pmMS is a composite score of ulcerative colitis signs and symptoms activity given by the sum of the SFS and RBS. SFS is measured on a scale from 0 (normal number of stools) to 3 (5 or more stools than normal). RBS is measured on a scale from 0 (no blood seen) to 3 (blood alone passed).
Measured: From baseline to Week 2
Percentage of Participants with Endoscopic Improvement
Percentage of participants achieving endoscopic subscore of 0 or 1 (normal appearance of mucosa or mild disease) at Week 12.
Measured: At Week 12
Percentage of Participants with Endoscopic Remission
Percentage of participants achieving endoscopic subscore of 0 (normal appearance of mucosa) at Week 12.
Measured: At Week 12
Percentage of Participants with Clinical Response
Percentage of participants achieving a decrease in mMS of at least 2 points and 30% from baseline and either a decrease in RBS >= 1 or RBS = 0 or 1 (no blood seen or stool with streaks of blood) at Week 12. mMS is a composite score of ulcerative colitis disease activity, given by the sum of three subscores: SFS, RBS and ES. SFS is measured on a scale from 0 (normal number of stools) to 3 (5 or more stools than normal). RBS is measured on a scale from 0 (no blood seen) to 3 (blood alone passed). ES is measured on a scale from 0 (normal appearance of mucosa) to 3 (severe disease).
Measured: At Week 12
Percentage of Participants with Histologic Improvement
Percentage of participants achieving a histologic improvement, defined as Geboes <=3.1 at Week 12. Geboes is a grading system for histologic ulcerative colitis disease activity with scores ranging from 0 (no activity) to 5.4 (ulcer or granulation tissue).
Measured: At Week 12
Percentage of Participants with Histologic Remission
Percentage of participants achieving a histologic remission, defined as Geboes <2B at Week 12. Geboes is a grading system for histologic ulcerative colitis disease activity with scores ranging from 0 (no activity) to 5.4 (ulcer or granulation tissue).
Measured: At Week 12
Participants with Histologic-Endoscopic Mucosal Improvement
Percentage of participants achieving Geboes <= 3.1 and ES = 0 or 1 (normal appearance of mucosa or mild disease) at Week 12. Geboes is a grading system for histologic ulcerative colitis disease activity with scores ranging from 0 (no activity) to 5.4 (ulcer or granulation tissue).
Measured: At Week 12
Percentage of Participants with Histologic-Endoscopic Remission
Percentage of participants achieving Geboes < 2 and ES = 0 or 1 (normal appearance of mucosa or mild disease) at Week 12. Geboes is a grading system for histologic ulcerative colitis disease activity with scores ranging from 0 (no activity) to 5.4 (ulcer or granulation tissue).
Measured: At Week 12
Percentage of Participants with Clinical Remission: Among Biomarker-Defined Subgroups of Participants
Percentage of participants achieving mMS <= 2 with SFS = 0 or 1 (up to 1-2 stools more than normal), RBS = 0 (no blood seen) and ES = 0 or 1 (normal appearance of mucosa or mild disease) at Week 12 in biomarker-defined subgroups. mMS is a composite score of ulcerative colitis disease activity, given by the sum of three subscores: SFS, RBS and ES. Each subscore is measured on a scale from 0 to 3, with higher values associated with greater severity.
Measured: At Week 12
Percentage of Participants with Endoscopic Improvement: Among Biomarker-Defined Subgroups of Participants
Percentage of participants achieving endoscopic subscore of 0 or 1 (normal appearance of mucosa or mild disease) at Week 12 in biomarker-defined subgroups.
Measured: At Week 12
Change in Bowel Urgency
Change in bowel urgency from baseline through Week 12. Bowel urgency is measured on a scale from 0 (None) to 4 (Severe).
Measured: Baseline through Week 12
Change in Abdominal Pain
Change in abdominal pain from baseline through Week 12. Abdominal pain is measured on a scale from 0 (None) to 4 (Severe).
Measured: Baseline through Week 12
Change in Fatigue
Change in fatigue as measured by the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue (FACIT-Fatigue) from baseline to Week 12. FACIT-Fatigue is a 13-item self-reported assessment of the level and impact of fatigue. The overall FACIT-Fatigue score ranges between 0 and 52, with higher scores associated with better quality of life concerns related to fatigue.
Measured: Baseline to Week 12
Change in Health-Related Quality of Life
Change in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ) score from baseline to Week 12. IBDQ is a 32-item self-reported assessment of health-related quality of life in participants with inflammatory bowel disease. The overall IBDQ score ranges from 32 to 224, with higher scores associated with better health-related quality of life.
Measured: Baseline to Week 12
Overall Change in UC Symptoms
Patient Global Impression of Change (PGIC) from baseline to Weeks 2 and 12. PGIC measures overall change in ulcerative colitis symptoms from "Much better" to"Much worse".
Measured: Baseline to Week 2 and Week 12
Overall Severity in UC Symptoms
Patient Global Impression of Severity (PGIS) from baseline to Weeks 2 and 12. PGIS measures severity of ulcerative colitis symptoms from "None" to "Very severe".
Measured: Baseline to Week 2 and Week 12
Incidence and Severity of Adverse Events (AEs)
Incidence and severity of AEs, including serious AEs, AEs leading to treatment discontinuation and AEs of special interest.
Measured: Up to 30 Weeks after Baseline

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 6 inclusion and 10 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 2 Oct 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 Clinical Remission (time frame: At Week 12). 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 2 Oct 2026.
