Conditions

Ulcerative Colitis

Brief summary

The purpose of the study is to confirm that V565 enters inflamed tissue, binds to TNF and reduces inflammation after oral dosing to patients with IBD.

Detailed description

Single-site, open-label study in up to 6 patients treated for up to 7 days with sigmoidoscopy and biopsies before and after treatment period to determine biological activity.
