What the trials found For clinicians

Colitis: what the trials found

Clinical trials demonstrate that specific interventions significantly improve clinical outcomes in patients with colitis. At week 6, a statistically significant increase in the number of participants achieving clinical response was observed compared to placebo (p<0.001) 1. This is further supported by data showing significant improvements in clinical response at week 6 for those receiving 130 mg of ustekinumab (p=0.002) 3.

Longer-term outcomes also show statistically significant improvements over placebo. Clinical remission was achieved significantly more often at week 8 (p=0.009) 1 and at week 44 (p=0.040) 2. Additionally, clinical response rates remained significantly higher than placebo at week 8 (p<0.001) 1 and at week 44 (p=0.033) 2.

In a maintenance study evaluating patients who were already in remission on ustekinumab at week 0, the difference in clinical remission at week 44 compared to placebo did not reach statistical significance (p=0.189) 2.

Recent results — preliminary, needs further review

  • KHK4083 showed a change from baseline in Total Mayo Scale Score at week 52, but these results are not yet corroborated 4.
  • Passive bending function was evaluated in a small cohort, but findings are not yet corroborated 5.

For the clinician treating this condition

  • Interventions have shown statistically significant improvements in both clinical response and remission at early time points (weeks 6 and 8) compared to placebo [1, 3].
  • Clinical benefits for both response and remission are sustained through week 44 when compared to placebo 2.
  • The efficacy of maintenance therapy specifically for patients already in remission on ustekinumab did not show a statistically significant difference from placebo at week 44 2.
