Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Number of Participants Who Achieved Clinical Remission at Day 56
Baseline up to Day 56

Clinical remission defined as a score of 0 for rectal bleeding and 0 for stool frequency components from the Ulcerative Colitis Disease Activity Index (UCDAI). UCDAI is the sum (0 to 12) of 4 severity scores (0 to 3). Stool frequency and rectal bleeding were based on information recorded in daily participant diaries. The diary entries were averaged for rectal bleeding and stool frequency for 3 days prior to (and closest to) Day 56 with non-missing diary data, within 5 days prior to (and closest to) Day 56. The 5 days did not include any days of the flexible sigmoidoscopy (or colonoscopy) or the preparation for the flexible sigmoidoscopy (or colonoscopy). These averages were rounded to integer values. If either subscore could not be calculated because of missing data, the score for that UCDAI component was set to missing. Participants with insufficient data at Day 56 were excluded from the analysis. Participants who had clinical remission at Baseline were classified as non-responders.

Percentage of Participants Achieving Clinical Remission
1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months

Clinical remission was defined as the combined absence of recurrence of rectal bleeding and absence of increased stool frequency.

Clinical and Endoscopic Remission.
8 weeks

Clinical and endoscopic remission defined as an Ulcerative Colitis Disease Activity Index (UCDAI) score ≤ 1, with subscores of 0 for rectal bleeding, stool frequency, and mucosal appearance and with a ≥ 1 point reduction in the endoscopic index score.
