First seen Mar 21, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 9 times

Summary

This study tests an experimental drug called MK-8690 for people with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis, a condition causing gut inflammation. About 100 adults will receive either the drug or a placebo to see if it helps achieve remission (fewer symptoms and healed gut lining) after 12 weeks. The goal is to control the disease, not cure it, and participants must have tried other treatments without success.
