Efficacy and Safety of GLPG1205 in Subjects With Active Ulcerative Colitis
- 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.

- Target Recruitment
- 64
- Male or female subjects between 18 and 75 years
- Documented history of UC
- Presence of active UC for a minimum period of 14 days prior to screening and spread beyond the rectum, Mayo score ≥ 6 with rectal bleeding score ≥ 1 and endoscopy score ≥ 2
- Absence of infectious colitis
- Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) inhibitor-naive subjects should have failed at least 1 prior conventional therapy
- Continuation of concurrent treatment with oral steroids (≤30 mg prednisolone eq/day), immunosuppressants and 5-aminosalicylates at stable dose is allowed

- Subjects will have to use highly effective contraceptive methods
- 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 significant psychological, neurologic, hepatic, renal, endocrine, cardiovascular, GI (other than UC), pulmonary, or metabolic disease
- 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

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Changes in Mayo score at Week 8 Screening and Week 8 To evaluate the efficacy of GLPG1205 in terms of changes in Mayo score comparing results at Week 8 with baseline between GLPG1205 treated subjects and placebo subjects
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Changes in partial Mayo score From Screening to Week 12 To evaluate the efficacy of GLPG1205 in terms of changes in partial Mayo score comparing results with baseline between GLPG1205 treated subjects and placebo subjects at every visit up to Week 12
Changes in faecal calprotectin levels From Screening to Week 12 To characterize the pharmacodynamics (PD) of GLPG1205 by measuring the levels of faecal calprotectin in stool at every visit up to Week 12
Changes in myeloperoxidase (MPO) levels in colonic biopsies Screening and Week 8 To characterize the pharmacodynamics (PD) of GLPG1205 by measuring the levels of myeloperoxidase (MPO) in colonic biopsies at Screening and Week 8
Histological response rate Screening and Week 8 To evaluate the efficacy of GLPG1205 in terms of histological response rate by use of the histopathological Geboes index comparing results at Week 8 with baseline between GLPG1205 treated subjects and placebo subjects
Number of subjects with adverse events From Screening to Week 16 To evaluate the safety and tolerability of GLPG1205 between GLPG1205 treated subjects and placebo subjects in terms of adverse events at every visit
Number of subjects with abnormal laboratory parameters From Screening to Week 16 To evaluate the safety and tolerability of GLPG1205 between GLPG1205 treated subjects and placebo subjects in terms of abnormal laboratory parameters at every visit
Number of subjects with abnormal vital signs From Screening to Week 16 To evaluate the safety and tolerability of GLPG1205 between GLPG1205 treated subjects and placebo subjects in terms of abnormal vital signs at every visit
Number of subjects with abnormal electrocardiogram From Screening to Week 16 To evaluate the safety and tolerability of GLPG1205 between GLPG1205 treated subjects and placebo subjects in terms of abnormal electrocardiograms at every visit
Number of subjects with abnormal physical examination From Screening to Week 16 To evaluate the safety and tolerability of GLPG1205 between GLPG1205 treated subjects and placebo subjects in terms of abnormal physical examination at every visit
The plasma levels of GLPG1205 Week 4, 8 and 12 To characterize the pharmacokinetics (PK) of GLPG1205 by measuring the amount in plasma at Week 4, 8 and 12
Changes in serum C-reactive protein (CRP) levels From Screening to Week 16 To characterize the pharmacodynamics (PD) of GLPG1205 by measuring the levels of C-reactive protein in serum at every visit
