New biosimilar AVT16 takes on entyvio for ulcerative colitis
NCT ID NCT06570772
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This phase 3 trial compared AVT16, a proposed biosimilar, to the approved drug Entyvio (vedolizumab) in 301 adults with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis. Participants received IV infusions over nearly a year. The study aimed to see if AVT16 works as well and is as safe as Entyvio. However, the trial was terminated early, so final results may be limited.
