a clinical study for ulcerative colitis
This study is enrolling adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC) with an eosinophilic phenotype who have uncontrolled disease.
Sanofi believes that everyone should have the opportunity to take part in clinical trials. It is important to include people who have been historically under-represented in clinical trials. Sanofi is committed to inclusivity in our studies.
If you are interested in learning more about this study, we encourage you to complete a brief questionnaire to help determine if you are eligible to participate and be referred to a site recruiting in your area for further evaluation.
Am I eligible?What is the purpose of the study?
To evaluate how effective and safe Dupilumab is at relieving symptoms of UC and reducing inflammation in the colon in adult patients.
What is the investigational medication?
- The investigational medication is intended to influence your immune system to reduce inflammation and help return your colon to a more normal and healthy state, which can improve signs and symptoms of UC.
- The investigational medication can only be used in a research study like this one and therefore, the investigational medication is not approved for treating people with UC in an everyday clinical setting.
- The investigational medication is randomly assigned (like flipping a coin). You have a 1:1 chance (50%) of receiving either the investigational medication or placebo. Whichever you are assigned, will be taken as an injection under the skin (subcutaneously), every week.
