Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To determine whether a non-TNF-targeted biologic (vedolizumab) is superior to infliximab to treat patient with UC losing response or with a primary failure to a first subcutaneous anti-TNF drug at week 14.;Secondary Objective: ?To assess the rate of clinical response and remission at Week 54 in each group of treatments and the time to clinical response and remission from baseline ; ?To assess the changes in faecal calprotectin levels from baseline to week 14 and 54 according to treatment ; ?To assess the rate of colectomy and hospitalization in each treatment group ; ?To assess the rate of mucosal healing at week 14 and 54 in each group of treatments ; To assess the rate of loss of response To assess the changes of quality of life indexes and the disability index To determine the safety profile To characterize the response according to drug monitoring of the first anti-TNF agent To describe the pharmacokinetics of infliximab and vedolizumab and explore the sources of pharmacokinetic inter-individual variability To identify predictive factors of response to the treatment, including pharmacokinetic features ;Primary end point(s): The rate of patients with clinical and endoscopic steroid free-remission (Mayo score = 2 without subscore > 1) at week 14.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: week 14

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): ? Mayo score at week 54 ; ? Faecal calprotectine level at week 14 and 54 ; ? Colectomy or hospitalization for disease flare during the study period ; ? Endoscopic subscore of the mayo Score at week 14 and 54 ; ? Partial Mayo score at week 2, 6, 14, 54 ; ? IBDQ index, IBD-Disk and IBD-DI at baseline week 14 and 54 ? Rate and type of adverse events during the study period ; ? Last trough concentration of the first subcutaneous agent at the time of the loss of response and anti-drug antibodies concentration ; ? Trough concentration of infliximab or vedolizumab at each visit and anti-drug antibodies concentration.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: week 2, 6, 14 and 54
