Summary

This trial will assess the safety and efficacy of risankizumab as a treatment for ulcerative colitis. The study will last for 52 weeks and will compare the results of those taking risankizumab to those taking a placebo.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for people with ulcerative colitis who responded to risankizumab in a previous study. They must not have allergies to risankizumab, its ingredients, or substances from Chinese hamster ovary cells. Participants should be compliant with medication requirements from the prior study.

What is being tested?

The trial tests the safety and effectiveness of risankizumab over 52 weeks compared to a placebo. It includes three sub-studies: one double-blind controlled study, one exploratory study, and an open-label extension for certain participants affected by COVID-19 or geopolitical issues.

What are the potential side effects?

While specific side effects are not listed here, potential risks may include allergic reactions to risankizumab or its components. Side effects experienced in the earlier phase of the trial could also be relevant.

8Treatment groups

Experimental Treatment

Placebo Group

Group I: Substudy 3: OL Extension RisankizumabExperimental Treatment1 Intervention

Participants who completed Sub-study 1 or 2 receive open-label risankizumab in Sub-study 3.

Group II: Substudy 2: Open-label (OL) Clinical Assessment RisankizumabExperimental Treatment1 Intervention

Participants randomized to receive risankizumab dose 1 administered by subcutaneous (SC) injection.

Group III: Substudy 2: OL Therapeutic Drug Monitoring RisankizumabExperimental Treatment1 Intervention

Participants randomized to receive risankizumab dose 1 administered by subcutaneous (SC) injection.

Group IV: Substudy 1: Double-blind Risankizumab Dose 2Experimental Treatment1 Intervention

Participants randomized to receive risankizumab dose 2 administered by subcutaneous (SC) injection.

Group V: Substudy 1: Double-blind Risankizumab Dose 1Experimental Treatment1 Intervention

Participants randomized to receive risankizumab dose 1 administered by subcutaneous (SC) injection.

Group VI: OL Continuous Treatment Extension - Dose 2Experimental Treatment1 Intervention

Participants who complete Sub-study 3 and continue to tolerate and derive benefit from receiving risankizumab, will continue to receive risankizumab based on their assignment during Sub-study 3. Participants completing Sub-study 3 and received risankizumab rescue therapy in any sub-study will receive risankizumab Dose 2 administered by subcutaneous (SC) injection.

Group VII: OL Continuous Treatment Extension - Dose 1Experimental Treatment1 Intervention

Participants who complete Sub-study 3 and continue to tolerate and derive benefit from receiving risankizumab, will continue to receive risankizumab based on their assignment during Sub-study 3. Participants completing Sub-study 3 without receiving risankizumab rescue therapy in any sub-study will receive risankizumab Dose 1 administered by subcutaneous (SC) injection.

Group VIII: Substudy 1: Double-blind PlaceboPlacebo Group1 Intervention

Participants randomized to receive placebo for risankizumab administered by subcutaneous (SC) injection.
