Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Primary Outcome Measure for Pharmacokinetics: -Serum concentrations of tofacitinib during induction and maintenance therapy. Primary Outcome Measures for Efficacy: -The remission rates at Week 8 or 16 after induction therapy and at Week 52 during maintenance therapy. -The relapse rate during maintenance therapy. Primary Outcome Measures for Safety: -Incidence of adverse events and severe adverse events. -Incidence of serious infections (including COVID-19).

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary Outcome Measure for Pharmacokinetics: -Urinary concentrations of tofacitinib and its metabolites (e.g., M9). Pharmacogenomic Endpoint: -Major single nucleotide polymorphisms of genes which may be associated with tofacitinib pharmacokinetics, including CYP3A4/3A5 and ABCB1/ABCG2. Exploratory Endpoints: -Mucosal concentrations of tofacitinib. -Mucosal mRNA expression levels of CYP3A4/3A5 and ABCB1/ABCG2.
