Double-Drug attack on Crohn's: could two biologics be better than one?

NCT ID NCT06045754

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Summary

This study is testing whether combining two different biologic drugs can better control moderate to severe Crohn's disease. One hundred adults will first receive either vedolizumab plus adalimumab or vedolizumab plus ustekinumab. Those who respond well will then switch to vedolizumab alone. The goal is to see if the combination improves bowel healing and symptoms, and if the benefit can be maintained with a single drug.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
vedolizumab (Entyvio), adalimumab (Humira), ustekinumab (Stelara)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that combining two targeted therapies is safe and effective for controlling moderate to severe Crohn's disease, and that some patients may then maintain control with just one drug.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase 4 study with only 100 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. Combining two powerful immune-suppressing drugs also raises the risk of serious infections and other side effects.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: Part A: 1. Has a confirmed diagnosis of CD at least 3 months before screening, based on endoscopy results. 2. Has moderately to severely active CD at Screening, defined as an SES-CD \>=6 (\>=4 if isolated ileal disease). 3. Has demonstrated at least 1 of the following (a, b, or c) to at least 1 IL antagonist or at least 1 tumor necrosis factor (TNF) antagonist, at doses approved for the treatment of CD: 1. Inadequate response after completing the full induction regimen; 2. Loss of response (recurrence of symptoms during scheduled maintenance dosing after prior clinical benefit); or 3. Intolerance (a significant adverse event that precluded further use, including but not limited to serious infection including opportunistic infections, malignancy, infusion-related and hypersensitivity reactions including anaphylaxis, and liver injury). Note: Participants with an inadequate response to \>2 classes of advanced therapies or \>1 agent in the same class are not eligible. Participants who discontinued a third class of advanced therapy for reasons other than inadequate response may be eligible after discussion with the Medical Monitor. Part B: 4. In the investigator's opinion, the participant exhibits a therapeutic benefit at Week 26. Exclusion Criteria: 1. CDAI score \> 450. 2. A current diagnosis of ulcerative colitis or indeterminate colitis. 3. Clinical evidence of an abdominal abscess. 4. Known fistula (other than perianal fistula) or phlegmon. 5. Known perianal fistula with abscess. 6. Ileostomy, colostomy, or severe, or symptomatic stenosis of the intestine. 7. Previous extensive bowel resection with 2 entire segments missing, of the following: terminal ileum, right colon, transverse colon, sigmoid and left colon, and rectum. 8. Short bowel syndrome. 9. Any planned surgical intervention for CD, except for seton placement for perianal fistula without abscess. 10. History or evidence of adenomatous colonic polyps that have not been removed. 11. History or evidence of colonic mucosal dysplasia. 12. Intolerance or contraindication to ileocolonoscopy. 13. Any identified congenital or acquired immunodeficiency (eg, common variable immunodeficiency infection). 14. Active or latent tuberculosis (TB), regardless of treatment history. 15. A positive test for hepatitis B virus (HBV) as defined by the presence of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) or hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb) test. 16. A positive test for hepatitis C virus (HCV), as defined by a positive hepatitis C virus antibody (HCVAb) test and detectable HCV ribonucleic acid (RNA). 17. Received approved or investigational anti-integrin antibodies (i.e., vedolizumab, natalizumab, efalizumab, etrolizumab, abrilumab \[AMG 181\], anti- mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule-1 \[MAdCAM-1\] antibodies, or rituximab) for the treatment of CD. 18. History of or symptoms of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) in the investigator's opinion. If a participant has symptoms consistent with PML, a PML checklist must be completed and submitted to the PML independent adjudication committee. If the PML IAC deems the participant to have PML, the participant is ineligible.
