Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The primary objective of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy of SB012 enema in subjects with moderate to severe active ulcerative colitis at end of treatment.;Secondary Objective: ? To evaluate the efficacy of SB012 enema four weeks after end of treatment. ? To evaluate the effects of SB012 enema on glucocorticoid consumption four weeks after end of treatment. ? To evaluate the pharmacokinetics of SB012 enema. ? To evaluate the safety and tolerability of SB012 enema.;Primary end point(s): Change in Total Mayo score after 4 weeks of treatment compared to baseline value in the active treatment group (SB012) versus placebo.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At baseline visit and at Day 28 (after four weeks of treatment).

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): ? Change in Total Mayo score 8 weeks after start of treatment compared to baseline value in the active treatment group (SB012) versus placebo. ? Change in Endoscopic Mayo score 4 and 8 weeks after start of treatment compared to baseline value in the active treatment group (SB012) versus placebo. ? Change in systemic glucocorticoid consumption (measured as DDD) 8 weeks after start of treatment compared to baseline value in the active treatment group (SB012) versus placebo. ? Number of treatment-emergent AEs and SAEs in the active treatment group (SB012) versus placebo. ? In subjects with hgd40 plasma levels equal to or above LLOQ: mean hgd40 plasma concentrations per time point. ? Changes in systemic biomarker plasma levels 4 and 8 weeks after start of treatment compared to baseline value in the active treatment group (SB012) versus placebo. ? Change in GATA-3 mRNA expression 4 and 8 weeks after start of treatment compared to baseline value in the active treatment group (SB012) versus placebo. ? Change in Riley score 4 and 8 weeks after start of treatment compared to baseline value in the active treatment group (SB012) versus placebo.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: At baseline visit, at Day 28 (after four weeks of treatment) and at Day 56 (after four weeks of treatment and four weeks of follow-up).
