Primary outcomes

  1. Induction Period: Percentage of Participants With Clinical Remission at Week 12

    Time frame: Week 12

    Clinical remission at week 12 is a defined as achieving a 9-pt Mayo subscore for rectal bleeding=0, stool frequency=0 or 1 with ≥ 1 point decrease from baseline, and endoscopy=0 or 1, excluding Physician's Global Assessment (PGA).

    • Stool Frequency Subscore, based on the participant's diary and scored from 0 (normal number of stools) to 3 (5 or more stools than normal);
    • Rectal Bleeding Subscore, based on the participant's diary and scored from 0 (no blood) to 3 (blood only passed);
    • Endoscopy Subscore, based on colonoscopy or sigmoidoscopy and scored from 0 (normal or inactive disease) to 3 (severe disease, spontaneous bleeding, ulceration);
    • Physician's Global Assessment subscore, based on the physician's overall assessment, and scored from 0 (normal) to 3 (severe disease).

    The total score ranges from 0 to 9 points, with higher scores representing more severe disease.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Induction Period: Percentage of Participants With Clinical Response at Week 12

    Time frame: Week 12

    Clinical response at week 12 is defined as a decrease in the 9-point Mayo subscores (rectal bleeding, stool frequency and the endoscopic findings) inclusive of >= 2 points and >=35% from baseline with either a decrease of rectal bleeding subscore of >=1 or rectal bleeding subscore of 0 or 1.

    The Mayo score is a composite score of ulcerative colitis disease activity calculated as the sum of four subscores:

    • Stool Frequency Subscore, based on the participant's diary and scored from 0 (normal number of stools) to 3 (5 or more stools than normal);
    • Rectal Bleeding Subscore, based on the participant's diary and scored from 0 (no blood) to 3 (blood only passed);
    • Endoscopy Subscore, based on colonoscopy or sigmoidoscopy and scored from 0 (normal or inactive disease) to 3 (severe disease, spontaneous bleeding, ulceration).

    The total score ranges from 0 to 9 points, with higher scores representing more severe disease.

  2. Induction Period: Percentage of Participants With Endoscopic Remission at Week 12

    Time frame: Week 12

    Endoscopic remission at week 12 is defined as achieving a Mayo endoscopic score of 0 at Week 12. Endoscopy Subscore is based on colonoscopy or sigmoidoscopy and scored from 0 (normal or inactive disease) to 3 (severe disease, spontaneous bleeding, ulceration);

    The total score ranges from 0 to 3 points, with higher scores representing more severe disease.

  3. Maintenance Period: Percentage of Participants With Endoscopic Remission at Week 52

    Time frame: Week 52

    Endoscopic remission at week 52 is defined as achieving a Mayo endoscopic subscore of 0 at Week 52. Endoscopy Subscore is based on colonoscopy or sigmoidoscopy and scored from 0 (normal or inactive disease) to 3 (severe disease, spontaneous bleeding, ulceration);

    The total score ranges from 0 to 3 points, with higher scores representing more severe disease.

  4. Induction Period: Change From Baseline to Week 12 in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ) Total Score

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 12

    The IBDQ is a 32-item subject-completed questionnaire that measures 4 aspects of subjects' lives: symptoms directly related to the primary bowel disturbance, systemic symptoms, emotional function, and social function (Guyatt et al. 1989). Responses are graded on a 7-point. Likert scale in which 7 denotes "not a problem at all" and 1 denotes "a very severe problem." Scores range from 32 to 224; a higher score indicates a better quality of life. LS Mean was calculated using MMRM model for post-baseline measures: Variable = Baseline + Geographical Region + Prior Biologic Therapy Group (N) + Treatment + Time + Treatment*Time (Type III sum of squares).

  5. Induction Period: Change From Baseline to Week 12 in 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36)

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 12

    SF-36 Health Status Survey is a generic, health-related scale assessing participant's quality of life on 8 domains: physical functioning, social functioning, bodily pain, vitality, mental health, role-physical, role-emotional and general health. Domain scores: general health (range: 5-25); physical functioning (range: 10-30); role-physical (range: 4-8); role-emotional (range: 3-15); social functioning (range: 2-10); bodily pain (range: 2-12); vitality (range: 4-20); mental health (range: 5-25). Each raw scale score was converted to a scale score ranging from 0-100 points, with higher values representing a better outcome [(Raw score) - min{raw score}] / (max {raw score} - min{raw score}) x 100]. LS Mean was calculated using Mixed effect Model Repeat Measurement (MMRM) model for post-baseline measures: Variable = Baseline + Geographical Region + Prior Biologic Therapy Group (N) + Treatment + Time + Treatment*Time (Type III sum of squares).

  6. Induction Period: Change From Baseline to Week 12 in Patient's Global Impressions of Severity (PGI-S) Score

    Time frame: Baseline, Week 12

    PGI-S is a 1-item subject-rated questionnaire designed to assess the subject's impression of their disease symptoms at baseline (Guy 1976; Yalcin and Bump 2003). Responses are graded on a 7-point scale in which a score of 1 indicates that the subject's symptom(s) are "normal," a score of 2 indicates that the subject feels "borderline ill," a score of 3 indicates that the subject feels "mildly ill," a score of 4 indicates that the subject(s) feel "moderately ill," and scores of 5, 6, and 7 indicate that the subject feels "markedly ill," "severely ill," and "extremely ill," respectively. LS Mean was calculated using MMRM model for post-baseline measures: Variable = Baseline + Geographical Region + Prior Biologic Therapy Group (N) + Treatment + Time + Treatment*Time (Type III sum of squares).

  7. Induction Period: Patient's Global Impressions of Improvement (PGI-I) Score at Week 12

    Time frame: Week 12

    PGI-I scale is a subject-rated instrument designed to assess the subject's impression of change in their symptom(s) (Guy 1976; Yalcin and Bump 2003). Responses are graded on a 7-point Likert scale in which a score of 1 indicates that the subject's symptom(s) is "very much better," a score of 4 indicates that the subject's symptom(s) has experienced "no change," and a score of 7 indicates that the subject's symptom(s) is "very much worse."
