Recruiting PHASE2 Crohn's Disease (CD)

Tests treatment safety and results for Crohn's Disease (CD)

Official title Clinical Study of the Efficacy, Safety, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Immunogenicity of BCD-261 in Subjects With Moderate to Severe Active Crohn's Disease

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07078994

What this study is testing

What is anti-TL1A monoclonal antibody, low dose?

anti-TL1A monoclonal antibody, low dose is an investigational medicine, given as an injectable medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for crohn's disease (cd).

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
The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics and immunogenicity of study drug (BCD-261) in comparison with placebo and to characterize the dose-response relationship in patients with moderate to severe active Crohn's Disease. The study will be conducted in a population of male and female subjects ≥18 years and ≤75 years with moderate to severe active Crohn's Disease and an inadequate response to prior treatment with glucocorticoids, immunosuppressants, or biologics/targeted immunosuppressants.
  • Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
  • You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance.
