Brief summary

This is a multicenter, Phase III, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel-group study to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and tolerability of etrolizumab compared with infliximab in treating participants with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis (UC) who are naive to tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors. Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either etrolizumab 105 milligrams (mg) by subcutaneous (SC) injection once every 4 weeks (Q4W) + placebo (intravenous \[IV\] infusion at Weeks 0, 2, and 6, then once every 8 weeks \[Q8W\]) or infliximab 5 milligrams/kilogram (mg/kg) IV at Weeks 0, 2, and 6, then Q8W) + placebo (SC Q4W). Time on treatment is 54 weeks.

Interventions

105 mg administered by subcutaneous (SC) injection once every 4 weeks (Q4W) until Week 52.

DRUGInfliximab

5 mg/kg of infliximab will be administered by intravenous (IV) infusion at Weeks 0, 2, and 6 and then every 8 weeks until Week 46.

Administered by (IV) infusion at Weeks 0, 2, and 6 and then every 8 weeks until Week 46.

The 32-item questionnaire contains four domains: bowel symptoms (10 items), systemic symptoms (5 items), emotional function (12 items), and social function (5 items). The items are scored on a 7-point Likert scale with a higher score indicating better health-related QOL. IBDQ score is a total score summed up from across all 32 questions on the questionnaire. The score can range from 32-224 and the higher score indicates a better quality of life.

Mayo Clinic Score (MCS) is a composite of 4 assessments, each rated from 0-3: stool frequency, rectal bleeding, endoscopy, and physician's global assessment. Higher scores indicate more severe disease. Clinical Response is MCS with ≥3-point decrease and 30% reduction from baseline as well as ≥1-point decrease in rectal bleeding subscore or an absolute rectal bleeding score of 0 or 1. Clinical Remission is MCS ≤2 with individual subscores ≤1.
