简要总结
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if MB-001, an oral biologic, is able to treat patients with ulcerative colitis. Participants will be asked to take MB-001 or a matching placebo once-daily for a period of 12 weeks. Researchers will compare MB-001 to placebo to investigate its effects on clinical symptoms as well as endoscopic and histopathological findings. Patients will be offered open-label extension for another 12 weeks following the double-blind, placebo-controlled part of the study. Participants will keep a daily diary to record their symptoms and will have up to nine clinic visits.
详细描述
This double-blind, placebo controlled clinical trial is intended to study the effects of oral MB-001 in patients with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis. The primary objectives of the study are to assess safety and efficacy. Secondary and exploratory endpoints are endoscopic response, histological response, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamic changes compared to baseline.

If the participant has had a colonoscopy within 1 year of the initial Screening date, a flexible sigmoidoscopy may be used instead.

- •Participant may be receiving a therapeutic dosage of the following drugs:
- •Oral 5-ASA compounds or sulfasalazine, prescribed dose must be stable for at least 2 weeks before Screening endoscopy or stopped at least 2 weeks prior to Screening endoscopy
- •Oral corticosteroids - prednisone (max. 20 mg/day) (or equivalent) or budesonide (max. 9 mg/day) and have been at a stable dose for at least 2 weeks prior to Screening endoscopy or stopped at least 2 weeks prior to Screening endoscopy

- •Is eligible to participate if not pregnant or breastfeeding, and the following conditions apply:
- •Of childbearing potential and using an acceptable contraceptive method during treatment with the IMP and for a minimum until 28 days after the last dose of IMP. The investigator should evaluate the potential or contraceptive method failure (eg, noncompliance, recently initiated) in relationship to the first dose of IMP. AND
- •Must have a negative highly sensitive pregnancy test as required by local regulations within 24 hours before the first dose of IMP,
- •Must agree not to donate eggs (ova, oocytes) for the purpose of assisted reproduction during the study and for a period of 28 days after receiving the last dose of IMP.

排除标准
- •The following complications:
- •Acute severe ulcerative colitis, defined by at least 6 bloody diarrhea/day AND any 1 of the following criteria: pulse > 90 beats/min, temperature > 37.8°C, hemoglobin < 105 g/l, erythrocyte sedimentation rate > 30 mm/h, or C-reactive protein > 30 mg/l, or in the investigator's opinion, hospitalization for the treatment of UC may be imminent
- •Previous extensive colonic resection (subtotal or total colectomy)
- •Short bowel syndrome
- •Ileostomy, colostomy, ileoanal pouch, fistulae, or known fixed symptomatic stenosis of the intestine
- •Toxic megacolon or recent history (within less than 6 months) of toxic megacolon or bowel perforation
- •Diagnosis of CD or the presence or history of a fistula consistent with CD, indeterminate colitis, ischemic colitis, NSAID-induced colitis, idiopathic colitis (ie, colitis not consistent with UC), radiation colitis, microscopic colitis, infectious colitis, colonic mucosal dysplasia, or untreated bile acid malabsorption.
- •Primary sclerosing cholangitis with uncontrolled liver function
- •Malignancies or history of malignancy within 5 years of Screening (including solid tumors and hematological malignancies), except for adequately treated or completely excised nonmetastatic basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, or cervical carcinoma in situ.
- •History of adenomatous polyps, unless removed.
- •History of lymphoproliferative disease, including lymphoma, or signs and symptoms suggestive of possible lymphoproliferative disease, such as lymphadenopathy and/or splenomegaly.
- •Class III or IV cardiovascular morbidity.
- •Clinically significant abnormal vital signs, physical examination, or 12-lead ECG at Screening or Day 1 (prolonged QTc using Fredericia's formula [> 460 ms for males and > 470 ms for females]), or conditions leading to additional risk for QT prolongation (eg, congenital long-QT syndrome). Participants with electrolyte abnormalities such as hypokalemia and hypomagnesemia that would increase the risk of QT prolongation should be corrected prior to randomization (an ECG may be repeated after electrolyte correction for determining eligibility, if needed).
- •History of bleeding disorders (eg, complement disorders, hemophilia, history of uncontrolled bleeding).

In cases where the QuantiFERON(R) test is indeterminate, the participant may have the test repeated once and if their second test is negative, they will be eligible. In the event a second test is also indeterminate, or QuantiFERON(R) is unavailable, the investigator has the option to perform a PPD skin test. If the PPD reaction is < 5 mm, then the participant is eligible. If the reaction is at least 5 mm, or PPD testing is not done, the participant is not eligible. An exception is made for participants with a history of latent TB who are currently receiving treatment for latent TB, will initiate treatment for latent TB before the first dose of IMP, or have documentation of completing appropriate treatment for latent TB within 3 years prior to the first dose of IMP.

Note: If a participant tests negative for HBsAg, but positive for HBcAb, the participant would be considered eligible if no HBV DNA is present, confirmed by HBV DNA polymerase chain reaction reflex testing performed by the central laboratory.
- •A positive test for HCV, as defined by a positive HCVAb test and detectable HCV RNA. Note: Participants who are HCVAb positive without evidence of HCV RNA may be considered eligible (spontaneous viral clearance or previously treated and cured [defined as no evidence of HCV RNA at least 12 weeks prior to randomization]).
