Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: COMPLETED
• Clinical Phase: PHASE3
• Total Enrollment: 215 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2017-08-03
• Study Completion Date: 2020-08-14

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of vedolizumab intravenous (IV) infusion as induction treatment in Chinese participants with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease (CD) at Week 10.

Detailed Description

The drug being tested in this study is called vedolizumab. Vedolizumab will be administered as an intravenous (IV) infusion in Chinese participants. This study will investigate the efficacy and safety of vedolizumab IV as induction and maintenance therapy in participants with moderately to severely active Crohn's Disease (CD).

The study will enroll approximately 300 moderately to severely active Chinese patients with CD.

Induction Phase: participants will be randomized 2:1 to receive:

• Vedolizumab IV 300 mg
• Placebo IV

Participants will receive vedolizumab 300 mg or matching placebo, intravenous (IV) infusion at Weeks 0, 2, and 6 in the induction phase. At Week 10, participants will be assessed for clinical response. Results of Week 10 clinical response will determine the treatment pathway in the maintenance phase.

Maintenance Phase: participants who achieved clinical response at Week 10 will continue to receive the same treatment as they received in Induction Phase; every 8 weeks (Q8W) starting at Week 14. Participants who received vedolizumab IV or placebo in the Induction Phase and did not achieve clinical response at Week 10 will receive vedolizumab every 4 weeks (Q4W) starting at Week 14.

This multi-center trial will be conducted in China. The overall time to participate in this study is 60 weeks. Participants will make multiple visits to the clinic, and will be contacted by telephone, 6 months after last dose of study drug for a long-term follow-up safety survey.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

1. Has a diagnosis of Crohn's disease (CD) established at least 3 months prior to Screening by clinical and endoscopic evidence corroborated by a histopathology report. Cases of CD established at least 6 months prior to randomization for which a histopathology report is not available will be considered based on the weight of evidence supporting the diagnosis and excluding other potential diagnosis, and must be discussed with the sponsor on a case-by-case basis prior to randomization.

2. Has moderately to severely active CD as determined by a Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) score of 220 to 400 within 7 days prior to the first dose of study drug and 1 of the following:

• C-reactive protein (CRP) level >2.87 mg/L during the Screening Phase, OR
• Ileocolonoscopy with photographic documentation of a minimum of 3 nonanastomotic ulcerations (each >0.5 cm in diameter) or 10 aphtous ulcerations (involving a minimum of 10 contiguous cm of intestine) consistent with CD, within 4 months prior to randomization, OR
• Fecal calprotectin >250 μg/g stool during the Screening Phase in conjunction with computed tomography enterography (CTE), magnetic resonance enterography (MRE), contrast enhanced small bowel radiography, or wireless capsule endoscopy revealing CD ulcerations (aphthae not sufficient), within 4 months prior to Screening

3. Has CD involvement of the ileum and/or colon, at a minimum.

4. Has extensive colitis or pancolitis of >8 years duration or limited colitis of >12 years duration must have documented evidence that a surveillance colonoscopy was performed within 12 months prior to initial screening (may be performed during Screening if not performed in previous 12 months).

5. Has a family history of colorectal cancer, personal history of increased colorectal cancer risk, age >50 years, or other known risk factor must be up-to-date on colorectal cancer surveillance (may be performed during Screening).

6. Has demonstrated an inadequate response to, loss of response to, or intolerance of at least 1 of the following agents as defined below:

• Corticosteroids.

Participants with remote history of malignancy (e.g., >10 years since completion of curative therapy without recurrence) will be considered based on the nature of the malignancy and the therapy received and must be discussed with the sponsor on a case-by-case basis prior to randomization.

16. Has a history of any major neurological disorders, including stroke, multiple sclerosis, brain tumor, or neurodegenerative disease.
