Study Description

Brief Summary:

The study is designed to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of MEDI2070 as compared to placebo. Investigational product will be administered as intravenous infusion in double-blind period, and as a subcutaneous injection in open-label period

Condition or disease	Intervention/treatment	Phase
Crohn's Disease	Drug: MEDI2070 Drug: placebo	Phase 2

Detailed Description:

This is a two-part Phase 2a study compromising a 12-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled, treatment period followed by a 100-week, open label, treatment period to evaluate short-term efficacy, and the short- and long-term safety of MEDI2070 in subjects with moderate to severe, active CD who have failed or are intolerant to anti-TNFα therapy as determined by the investigator. Approximately 120 subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to initially receive a fixed IV dose of MEDI2070 or placebo on Week 0(Day1) and Week 4 (Day 29) during the 12-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled, treatment period. At the completion of the double-blind, placebo-controlled, treatment period (Week 12), subjects will have the option to enter a 100-week, open-label, treatment period where they will receive open-label MEDI2070 (SC) Q4W (Week 12 through Week 112). Subjects will be followed for safety at 3 visits over 28 weeks after their last dose of IP. Subjects will also be contacted by phone 36 weeks after their last dose of IP for safety.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures :

Percentage of Participants With Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) Response at Week 8 [ Time Frame: Week 8 ]
A CDAI is a multi-item instrument which measures severity of active Crohn's Disease monitored over 7 days includes subject reported symptoms, physician-assessed signs, and laboratory markers. CDAI score = Sum of weighted scores for subjective items (number of liquid/soft stools, degree of abdominal pain, general well-being); and objective items (associated signs, use of anti-diarrhoeal medication, abdominal mass, haematocrit, daily morning temperature, body weight). CDAI scores range approximately from 0 to 600, higher scores indicating greater disease activity. The CDAI response at Week 8 is defined as either CDAI score of less than (<)150 or CDAI reduction from baseline of at least 100 points, where baseline was last non-missing observation prior to first administration of the study drug. Modified Intent-to-treat (mITT)population was analysed for this end point, which included all subjects who were randomized and received at least 1 dose of study drug in double-blind period.

Secondary Outcome Measures :

Percentage of Participants With CDAI-70 Point Improvement at Week 8 [ Time Frame: Week 8 ]
The CDAI is a multi-item instrument which measures severity of active Crohn's Disease monitored over 7 days and includes subject reported symptoms, physician-assessed signs, and laboratory markers. The CDAI score is calculated by summing weighted scores for subjective items (number of liquid or very soft stools, the degree of abdominal pain over a week and general well-being; and objective items (associated signs, use of anti-diarrhoeal medication, abdominal mass, haematocrit, daily morning temperature, and body weight). The CDAI scores range approximately from 0 to 600, with higher scores indicating greater disease activity. CDAI 70-point improvement is defined as a reduction from baseline in CDAI score of at least 70 points/scores, where baseline was the latest nonmissing observation prior to first administration of the study drug. Subjects in the mITT population were analysed for this end point.
Percentage of Participants With CDAI Response at Week 12 [ Time Frame: Week 12 ]
The CDAI is a multi-item instrument which measures severity of active Crohn's Disease monitored over 7 days and includes subject reported symptoms, physician-assessed signs, and laboratory markers. The CDAI score is calculated by summing weighted scores for subjective items (number of liquid or very soft stools, the degree of abdominal pain over a week and general well-being; and objective items (associated signs, use of anti-diarrhoeal medication, abdominal mass, haematocrit, daily morning temperature, and body weight). The CDAI scores range approximately from 0 to 600, with higher scores indicating greater disease activity. CDAI response is defined by either a CDAI score of < 150 or a CDAI reduction from baseline of at least 100 points, where baseline was the latest non-missing observation prior to first administration of the study drug. Subjects in the mITT population were analysed for this end point.
Percentage of Participants With CDAI Remission at Week 8 [ Time Frame: Week 8 ]
The CDAI is a multi-item instrument which measures severity of active Crohn's Disease monitored over 7 days and includes subject reported symptoms, physician-assessed signs, and laboratory markers. The CDAI score is calculated by summing weighted scores for subjective items (number of liquid or very soft stools, the degree of abdominal pain over a week and general well-being; and objective items (associated signs, use of anti-diarrhoeal medication, abdominal mass, haematocrit, daily morning temperature, and body weight). The CDAI scores range approximately from 0 to 600, with higher scores indicating greater disease activity. The CDAI score of < 150 represent CDAI remission. Subjects in the mITT population were analysed for this end point.
Percentage of Participants With CDAI-100 Point Improvement at Week 8 [ Time Frame: Week 8 ]
The CDAI is a multi-item instrument which measures severity of active Crohn's Disease monitored over 7 days and includes subject reported symptoms, physician-assessed signs, and laboratory markers. The CDAI score is calculated by summing weighted scores for subjective items (number of liquid or very soft stools, the degree of abdominal pain over a week and general well-being; and objective items (associated signs, use of anti-diarrhoeal medication, abdominal mass, haematocrit, daily morning temperature, and body weight). The CDAI scores range approximately from 0 to 600, with higher scores indicating greater disease activity. CDAI 100-point improvement is defined as a reduction from baseline in CDAI score of at least 100 points/scores, where baseline was the latest nonmissing observation prior to first administration of the study drug. Subjects in the mITT population were analysed for this end point.
Change From Baseline in CDAI Total Score at Week 8 [ Time Frame: Week 8 ]
The CDAI is a multi-item instrument which measures severity of active Crohn's Disease monitored over 7 days and includes subject reported symptoms, physician-assessed signs, and laboratory markers.
