NCT ID NCT07235904
First seen Nov 19, 2025 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 22 times
Summary
This study compares starting treatment with mirikizumab (a biologic drug) right away versus the usual step-up approach with azathioprine for people newly diagnosed with moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis. About 300 adults will be randomly assigned to one of two groups and followed for 52 weeks. The goal is to see if early mirikizumab leads to better disease control with fewer side effects.
