Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Proportion of the subjects with clinical remission (defined as Mayo score ≤ 2 points with no individual subscore > 1 point) of BMS-936557 with that of the placebo | End of Induction [Week 11, Induction Period-78 (IP-78)] |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Proportion of the subjects with clinical response of BMS-936557 with that of the placebo | IP-78 (Week 11) | Defined as a reduction from baseline in Mayo score ≥3 points and ≥30% and decrease from baseline in rectal bleeding subscore ≥1 point or absolute rectal bleeding subscore ≤1 point |
| Proportion of subjects with mucosal healing (defined as endoscopy subscore of ≤1 point) of BMS-936557 with that of the placebo | IP-78 (Week 11) | — |
| Proportion of subjects reporting Adverse event (AE), Serious adverse events (SAEs), AEs leading to discontinuation, and markedly abnormal laboratory values | IP-78 (Week 11) | — |
| Mean change from baseline at Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ) of subjects treated with BMS-936557 and placebo | Baseline (IP-1, Week 1) and IP-78 (Week 11) | — |
