MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To assess the safety and tolerability od SPD476 2.4 g/day (2.4 g dosed once daily) and SPD476 2.4 g/day (1.2 g dosed twice daily) in long-term (12 month)study;Secondary Objective: Acute Phase: 1.To evaluate the percentage of subjects in the Acute Phase who are in remission(a UC-DAI score of <1 , with a score of 0 for rectal bleeding and stool frequency, and at least a 1-point reduction from the Study 301 or 302 baseline in the sigmoidoscopy score) at the end of the treatment period with SPD476 4.8 g/day (2.4 g dosed twice daily) 2.To assess the safety and tolerability of SPD476 4.8 g/day (2.4 g dosed twice daily) Maintenance Phase: 1.To compare subject compliance between SPD476 2.4 g/day (2,4 g dosed once daily) and SPD476 2.4 g/day (1.2 g dosed twice daily). 2.To compare the time to relapse between SPD476 2.4 g (2.4 g dosed once daily) and SPD476 2.4 g/day (1.2 g dosed twice daily) over 12 months. 3.To compare the percentage of subjects in remission at the end of the 12 month treatment period between SPD476 2.4 g (2.4 g dosed once daily) and SPD476 2.4 g/day (1.2 g dosed twice daily). 4.To compare Patient Questionnaire scores between treatment groups.;Primary end point(s): Safety and tolerability will be assesed by EAs, laboratory testing (hematology and biochemistry) urinalysis, physical examination and vital signs. Remission is defined as a UC-DAI of <1 with a score of 0 for rectal bleeding and stool frequency and at least a 1-point reduction the sigmoidoscopy score from baseline of Study 301 or 302. Compliance will assessed by counting the number of tablets dispensed to the subjects and counting the number of tablets returned
