Study of Tilpisertib Fosmecarbil in Participants With Moderately to Severely Active Ulcerative Colitis

Clinical Response is defined as a decrease from baseline of ≥ 2 points and at least 30% in 3 components of the modified Mayo Clinic Score, Stool Frequency, Rectal Bleeding, and Endoscopic Findings, in addition to a ≥ 1 point decrease from baseline in the Rectal Bleeding subscore or Rectal Bleeding subscore of ≤ 1. The modified Mayo Clinic Score is a scoring system for assessment of UC activity and is composed of subscores from endoscopy (range: 0 to 3, where 0 = normal or inactive disease and 3 = severe disease [spontaneous bleeding, ulceration]), rectal bleeding (range: 0 to 3, where 0 = no blood seen and 3 = blood alone passes), and stool frequency (range: 0 to 3, where 0 = normal number of stools and 3 = at least 5 or more stools more than normal). Total score for modified Mayo Clinic Score ranges from 0 to 9 (sum of all subscores), with higher scores indicating higher disease activity.

Clinical Remission is defined as a Stool Frequency subscore ≤ 1 and not greater than baseline, Rectal Bleeding subscore of 0, and Endoscopic Findings subscore ≤ 1 at Week 12. The modified Mayo Clinic Score is a scoring system for assessment of UC activity and is composed of subscores from endoscopy (range: 0 to 3, where 0 = normal or inactive disease and 3 = severe disease [spontaneous bleeding, ulceration]), rectal bleeding (range: 0 to 3, where 0 = no blood seen and 3 = blood alone passes), stool frequency (range: 0 to 3, where 0 = normal number of stools and 3 = at least 5 or more stools more than normal). Total score for modified Mayo Clinic Score ranges from 0 to 9 (sum of all subscores), with higher scores indicating higher disease activity.

Endoscopic Response is defined as an Endoscopic Findings subscore ≤ 1 at Week 12. Endoscopic subscore is a part of the modified Mayo Clinic Score which is a scoring system for assessment of UC activity. Endoscopic subscore range: 0 to 3, where 0 = normal or inactive disease, 1 = mild disease (erythema, decreased vascular pattern), 2 = moderate disease (marked erythema, lack of vascular pattern, friability, erosions), and 3 = severe disease (spontaneous bleeding, ulceration). Higher scores indicate higher disease activity.

Histologic Endoscopic Mucosal Improvement is defined as an Endoscopic Findings subscore ≤ 1 and Geboes score ≤ 3.1 (indicating neutrophil infiltration in < 5% of crypts, no crypt destruction and no erosions, ulcerations, or granulation tissue). Endoscopic subscore is a part of the modified Mayo Clinic Score which is a scoring system for assessment of UC activity. Endoscopic subscore range: 0 to 3, where 0 = normal or inactive disease, 1 = mild disease (erythema, decreased vascular pattern), 2 = moderate disease (marked erythema, lack of vascular pattern, friability, erosions), and 3 = severe disease (spontaneous bleeding, ulceration). Geboes histologic remission is assessed using the Geboes histologic scores to identify histologic changes in ulcerative colitis. Possible scores are graded as Grade 0 to Grade 5, with higher grade representing higher levels of disease activity.
