Efficacy and Safety of GLPG1205 in Subjects With Active Ulcerative Colitis

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
Ulcerative Colitis
Interventions
Drug: GLPG1205
Drug: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT02337608
Lead Sponsor
Galapagos NV
Brief Summary

* Approximately 60 patients suffering from moderate to severe ulcerative colitis will be evaluated for improvement of disease activity (efficacy) when taking GLPG1205 or matching placebo once daily for 12 weeks in addition to their stable background treatment.

* During the course of the study, patients will also be examined for any side effects that may occur (safety and tolerability), and the amount of GLPG1205 present in the blood (Pharmacokinetics) as well as the effects of GLPG1205 on disease- and mechanism of action-related parameters (Pharmacodynamics) in blood, stool and colonic biopsies will be determined.

Exclusion Criteria
  • History of sensitivity to any component of the study drug, or a history of drug or other allergy
  • Any concurrent illness, condition, disability, or clinically significant abnormality that, in the investigator's opinion, represents a safety risk for the subject's participation, may affect the interpretation of data, or may prevent the subject from safely completing the assessments

  • History of active infections requiring intravenous antibiotics within the past 4 weeks prior to screening.
  • History of malignancy within the past 5 years; presence or history of intestinal malignancy
  • History of bowel surgery within 6 months prior to screening; history of colon resection with < 30 cm of the colon remaining
  • Suspicion of Crohn's disease, indeterminate colitis, microscopic colitis, ischemic colitis, diverticular disease-associated colitis, or radiation-induced colitis
  • Subject who has received non-permitted UC therapies within specified timeframes, depending on the medication, as stated in the protocol
  • Subject who is pregnant or lactating
