According to the results reported on ClinicalTrials.gov, this trial (NCT03596645) looked at two medicines — golimumab and infliximab — in people with ulcerative colitis, a condition causing inflammation in the large bowel. A total of 69 participants were enrolled in the golimumab group and 15 in the infliximab group. The main thing the trial was measuring was the proportion of golimumab participants whose disease reached "remission" (very low disease activity, based on a scoring system called the Mayo score) at six weeks. A number of additional measurements were also taken out to 54 weeks, using both the Mayo score and a separate scoring tool designed for younger patients (called the PUCAI score). The reported data shows that for the golimumab group, approximately 31.9% of participants met the definition of remission at six weeks using the Mayo score. Using the PUCAI tool at the same six-week point, the reported figure was 33.3%. When looking at a broader measure called "clinical response" at six weeks — meaning a meaningful drop in disease activity score, even if full remission was not reached — the reported figure was 56.5%. It is worth noting that no outcome figures were reported for the infliximab group for any of these measures. The reported data also shows results at 54 weeks for the golimumab group: approximately 31.7% met the Mayo score remission definition, 34.1% met the PUCAI remission definition, and 39.0% met the definition for "symptomatic remission" (based on stool frequency and rectal bleeding scores only). The data submitted shows that none of the participants were recorded as having formally "completed" the study in either group, though the reasons for this are not explained in the structured results.

  • If you are receiving nutrition through a tube into your digestive system, you must have been on a stable routine for at least 2 weeks before the trial starts (confirm with trial site)
  • You have no history of tuberculosis (TB), either active or dormant
  • Your vaccinations are fully up to date (including measles, mumps, rubella, and chickenpox) according to current guidelines for people with a weakened immune system

Expanded access pathways

This trial is not enrolling. Other access pathways exist in general: in Australia, the TGA Special Access Scheme allows access to unapproved therapeutic goods for individual patients. Whether it applies to any treatment studied here is a question for your doctor — nothing on this page says it does.
