E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
Primary objective of Substudy 1 (Phase2b induction) is to characterize dose-response, efficacy, and safety of upadacitinib compared to placebo in inducing clinical remission defined by Adapted Mayo score in subjects with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC) in order to identify the induction dose of upadacitinib for further evaluation in Phase 3 studies, SS1 has closed enrollment and all subjects have completed the induction phase.
Primary objective of Substudy 2 (Phase3 induction) is to evaluate efficacy and safety of upadacitinib 45 mg once daily (QD) compared to placebo in inducing clinical remission in subjects with moderately to severely active UC.
Primary objective of SS3 (Phase3 maintenance) is to evaluate efficacy and safety of upadacitinib compared to placebo in achieving clinical remission in subjects with moderately to severely active UC who achieved clinical response following induction with upadacitinib in Study M14-234 SS 1 or 2 or in Study M14-675. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
Evaluate the pharmacokinetics of Upadacitinib in subjects with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis; Characterize the dose-response, efficacy and safety of Upadacitinib compared to placebo in inducing clinical remission in subjects with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis; Evaluate the efficacy and safety of Upadacitinib compared to placebo in achieving clinical remission in subjects with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis who had a response following induction with Upadacitinib. |

E.2.3 | Trial contains a sub-study | Yes |
E.2.3.1 | Full title, date and version of each sub-study and their related objectives |
This is a Phase IIb/III, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study consisting of the following Substudies:
Substudy 1 is a Phase IIb dose-ranging study designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of oral administration of multiple different doses of Upadacitinib compared to placebo as induction therapy for 8 weeks in subjects with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC).
Substudy 2 is a Phase III dose-confirming study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral administration of one dose of Upadacitinib, based on the dose identified from Substudy 1, compared to placebo as induction therapy for 8 weeks in subjects with moderately to severely active UC.
Substudy 3 is a Phase III study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral administration of two doses of Upadacitinib compared to placebo as maintenance therapy for 44 to 52 weeks in subjects with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis who achieved response following induction with Upadacitinib in Substudy 1 or 2 or study M14-675. |
