Study Overview

This is a multinational, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase 3 induction study, comprised of 3 sub-studies, to evaluate the efficacy and safety of duvakitug in participants with moderately to severely active CD. Study details include:

The study duration may be up to 35 weeks with:

  • Up to 5-week Screening Period.
  • 12-week Sub-Study 1 (Single Arm Open-Label Feeder Induction) or Sub-Study 2 (Pivotal Induction).
  • 12-week Sub-Study 3 (Extended Induction for non-responders).
  • 6 weeks (45 days) follow-up period for participants who do not enroll into the Pivotal Maintenance Study (EFC18327). The treatment duration will be up to 12 weeks in each sub-study.

The number of scheduled study visits for participants who continue to the Pivotal Maintenance Study (EFC18327) will be up to 8 (Sub-Study 1 and Sub-Study 2) and up to 15 for participants who enroll in Sub-Study 3.

Eligibility Criteria

You may be eligible for this study if you meet the following criteria:

  • Conditions: Crohn's Disease
  • Age: 16 years - 80 years
  • Gender: All

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Participants aged ≥18 and ≤80 years of age at Screening. Where permitted locally, participants 16 to <18 years of age who meet the definition of Tanner Stage 5 for development
  • Confirmed diagnosis of moderately to severely active Crohn's Disease (CD) for at least 3 months prior to baseline
  • Demonstrated inadequate response, have shown loss of response or intolerance to conventional therapies or advanced therapies (ATs)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Participants with Ulcerative Colitis (UC) or indeterminate colitis
  • Participants with two entire missing segments of the: terminal ileum, right colon transverse colon, sigmoid and left colon, and rectum
  • Prior or current high-grade gastrointestinal (GI) dysplasia
  • Participants on treatment with but not on stable doses of conventional therapy prior to baseline
  • Participants receiving prohibited medications or therapies
  • Participants with previous exposure to anti-TL1A investigational therapy

The above information is not intended to contain all considerations relevant to a participant's potential participation in a clinical trial.

This study investigates the efficacy and safety of an investigational medication in people with moderately to severely active Crohn's Disease. Participants will be part of a study lasting up to 35 weeks. This includes a screening period of up to 5 weeks, followed by a treatment duration of up to 12 weeks in each sub-study, and a follow-up period of 6 weeks for those not continuing to a maintenance study.

Participants will undergo various study procedures, including randomized and placebo-controlled phases. In some parts of the study, participants will not know if they are receiving the investigational medication or a placebo, which is an inactive substance that looks like the investigational medicine but does not contain any medicine.

  • Who can participate: Participants aged 16 to 80 years with moderately to severely active Crohn's Disease for at least 3 months can join if they have shown inadequate response or intolerance to conventional or advanced therapies. Exclusions include those with Ulcerative Colitis or missing segments of certain intestines.
  • Study details: Participants will be randomly assigned to different study arms and may receive either the investigational medication or a placebo. They will follow the study procedures as outlined, which include regular check-ups and monitoring.
  • Study timelines: The study will last up to 35 weeks.
