What this study is testing

What is 24mg bid TQH3906 capsule?

24mg bid TQH3906 capsule is an investigational medicine, given as a pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for inflammatory bowel diseases.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
This phase will commence following dose escalation in the 24mg bid group during Phase I. Employing a 1:1:1 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study design, it will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and Pharmacokinetics/Pharmacodynamics (PK/PD) characteristics of TQH3906 capsules in subjects with moderate-to-severe active ulcerative colitis.
  • Phase 1: an early, usually small safety study
  • You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
