A Phase 3 trial program involving 3 studies, U-ACHIEVE Induction (N=473) and U-ACCOMPLISH (N=515), and 1 maintenance study, U-ACHIEVE Maintenance (N=451). The clinical trials evaluated RINVOQ 45mg vs placebo for induction, and RINVOQ 15mg and 30mg vs placebo for maintenance treatment.*1,2 Patients in clinical remission (aMs 5–9 with centrally assessed endoscopic subscore of 2–3) at Week 0 of the LTE study/Week 52 of maintenance entered the U-ACTIVATE long-term extension study (LTE).3
*Patients who achieved clinical response per adapted Mayo score with 8-week RINVOQ 45 mg QD induction treatment entered maintenance.
Mucosal healing is a STRIDE-II long-term target of UC treatment.4 In a Phase 3 clinical trial program evaluating the efficacy and safety of RINVOQ in UC, 4 different endpoints were used to measure mucosal healing: mucosal healing, endoscopic remission, histologic-endoscopic mucosal healing and deep mucosal healing.1,2 Within STRIDE II, mucosal healing was defined by endoscopic remission (Mayo ESS 0).4
HISTO-ENDOSCOPIC MUCOSAL HEALING
at Week 8 and Week 52*1,2
*Mayo endoscopic subscore (ESS) 0 or 1 without friability and Geboes score ≤3.1, secondary endpoint
*p<0.001 vs placebo.
Brackets [*] indicate ranked secondary endpoint (multiplicity-controlled analysis, ITT, NRI-C).
NRI-C = non-responder imputation incorporating multiple imputation to handle missing data due to COVID-19.
Induction studies U-ACHIEVE (UC-1) and U-ACCOMPLISH (UC-2) were replicate multicentre, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical studies. Week 8 responders per aMs from both UC-1 and UC-2 were pooled and entered the U-ACHIEVE maintenance study (UC-3) and were re-randomised 1:1:1 to receive RINVOQ 15mg, RINVOQ 30mg or placebo for up to 52 weeks.
