Overview
Brief Summary
PHASE: IV
DESCRIPTIVE: Randomized, interventional, open label multicenter trial
POPULATION: Moderate to severe ulcerative colitis
STUDY TREATMENTS: Patients will all receive Adalimumab 160/80/40mg EOW until V1 (W14) followed by 40mg EOW until V2 (W26) and could be optimized up to 80mg EOW (or 40 EW according to patient and/or investigator preference) for two months and then could be optimized up to 80mg EOW (or 40 EW according to patient and/or investigator preference) and azathioprine (2.0/2.5 mg/kg/ day) or methotrexate (25 mg EW) until V3 (W 38).
OBJECTIVES: To assess the impact of a treat to target treatment follow up by e-Monitoring and fecal calprotectin dosing at home associated to an appropriate patient education versus standard treatment follow up at W48 in patients requiring a treatment with adalimumab (Humira®).
Detailed Description
NUMBER OF PATIENTS : 238 patients in 20 sites in France RECRUITMENT PERIOD : The trial duration for each patient will be 144 weeks MAIN ENDPOINT : At week 48 success defined by: Endoscopic remission defined by an endoscopic Mayo score 0 SECONDARY ENDPOINTS: At W48 * Clinical remission (Clinical remission is defined as a total Mayo score ≤2 points, with no individual sub score \>1, and a Mayo endoscopy sub score of 0 or 1) * Remission without steroids * Endoscopic healing rate with Mayo score 0 or 1 * UCEIS score * Histological healing (Nancy score) * Remission rate and remission rate without steroids at study visits and W48 * Quality of life evolution (evaluate visit W0 vs W14, W26, W38 and W48) * Patients satisfaction * Continuous response * Safety and tolerability * Anti-TNF pharmacokinetics * Number of visits in trial * Number of UC related hospitalizations * Number of colectomies * Treatment compliance (questionnaire) * Patient adhesion (questionnaire) * Medico-economic analysis

Arms & Interventions
Group Standard of care
In standard of care, patient only visits every 3 months the doctor so the optimization of treatment can be done only at this frequency.
Intervention: Adalimumab
Groupe T2T with telemonitoring and patient education
Treatment with e-Monitoring, home fecal calprotectin testing and therapy education.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Endoscopic Remission
