ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at how well a medication called risankizumab works compared to another medication called vedolizumab in treating adults with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis (UC). Ulcerative colitis is a disease that causes inflammation and bleeding in the large intestine. The study will include about 530 adults who have had UC for at least three months and have not yet tried certain targeted therapies. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either risankizumab or vedolizumab, with risankizumab given through an IV during the initial treatment and then as a self-injection later on, while vedolizumab will be given through an IV throughout the study.

To participate, individuals must have active UC that has not responded well to other treatments, such as steroids or immunomodulators. They cannot have previously received any targeted therapy for UC. Throughout the study, participants will attend regular visits to monitor their health and any side effects. The entire study will last about 69 to 71 weeks, including a screening period to ensure eligibility. It's important for potential participants to know that this trial may involve more frequent visits and treatments compared to standard care.
