Development of a Biomarker of Efficacy of Vedolizumab (EnTyvio®) in Patients With ulcErative ColiTis (DETECT)
- Registration Number
- NCT02878083
- Lead Sponsor
- Nantes University Hospital
- Brief Summary
The main objective of this project is to demonstrate the feasability of an endomicroscopic biomarker of efficacy of vedolizumab and adalimumab, in Ulcerative colitis (UC) by coupling vedolizumab to a fluorescent component, FITC (Fluorescein isothiocyanate) , and adalimumab to rhodamine.
This project should allow the development of a biomarker of therapeutic efficacy for vedolizumab and adalimumab that can be used in a single time-frame in vivo in humans, while respecting manufacturing standards and Good manufacturing procedures.
- Detailed Description
Patients will be recruited before initiation of vedolizumab injections. The schedule for vedolizumab infusions will corresponding to the protocol follow-up visits (Week 0, W2, W6, W14, W22), and flexible sigmoidoscopy appointments will be performed at Week 0 and 22.
For responder patients, the end of the study will occured two weeks after the last vedolizumab infusion (W24).
At week 22, nonresponder patients to vedolizumab may be treated by adalimumab in the absence of contraindication and depending on the decision of the physician responsible for the patient. Patients will be treated every two weeks during 8 weeks. The protocol follow up will end 2 weeks after the fourth adalimumab injection.
During W0 and W22, colon biopsies will be collected. Blood samples will be collected on W0, W2, W6, W14, W22 (and W30 for non responder).

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Demonstrate the feasibility of an ex vivo labeling of intestinal immune cells with a combination of two markers: vedolizumab-FITC and adalimumab-Alexa Fluor 647 week 0 Presence of fluorescent cells by Cellvizio® examination field for each of the antibodies: FITCcoupled vedolizumab and Alexa Fluor 647-coupled adalimumab at week 0 for all the patients.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Quantify, ex vivo, the number of cells labeled with FITC-coupled vedolizumab in the intestinal mucosa of patients with moderate to severe UC that are associated with clinical remission at week 22 (W22) after the initiation of treatment with vedolizumab. Week 22 -Number of fluorescent cells by Cellvizio® examination field for each of the antibodies: FITC-coupled vedolizumab and Alexa Fluor 647-coupled adalimumab / Score of clinical response assessment
Evaluate the association between the number of cells labeled with FITC-coupled vedolizumab in the intestinal mucosa and the rate of endoscopic remission induced by treatment with a standard dose of vedolizumab week 22 - Number of fluorescent cells / Geboes sub-score
Evaluate the association between the number of cells labeled with FITC-coupled vedolizumab in the intestinal mucosa and the rate of histologic remission induced by treatment with a standard dose of vedolizumab week 22 - Number of fluorescent cells / Mayo endoscopic sub-score,
Evaluate the association between the Alexa Fluor 647-coupled adalimumab biomarker, and the rate of clinical response at w30 to adalimumab from week 0 to week 30 Evolution of Number of fluorescent cells by Cellvizio® examination field for each of the antibodies between week 0 and week 22 / Mayo clinic sub-score
Evaluate the association between the Alexa Fluor 647-coupled adalimumab biomarker, and the rate of endoscopic remission at w30 to adalimumab from week 0 to week 30 Evolution of Number of fluorescent cells by Cellvizio® examination field for each of the antibodies between week 0 and week 22 / Geboes sub-score
Evaluate the association between the Alexa Fluor 647-coupled adalimumab biomarker, and the rate of clinical remission at w30 to adalimumab from week 0 to week 30 Evolution of Number of fluorescent cells by Cellvizio® examination field for each of the antibodies between week 0 and week 22 / rectal bleeding score
Evaluate the association between the number of cells labeled with FITC-coupled vedolizumab in the intestinal mucosa and the rate of clinical response induced by treatment with a standard dose of vedolizumab week 22 - Number of fluorescent cells / rectal bleeding score
Compare the number of positive immune cells FITC-coupled vedolizumab in the intestinal mucosa of patients with UC week 0 Average of Number of fluorescent cells FITC-coupled vedolizumab / patient
Compare the number of positive immune cells Alexa Fluor 647-coupled adalimumab in the intestinal mucosa of patients with UC week 0 Average of Number of fluorescent cells Alexa Fluor 647-coupled adalimumab/ patient
