Trial Information
How do UC Life?
We understand that living with ulcerative colitis can feel like
you are living in your bathroom, especially when your disease
symptoms flare up.
If you or someone you know has ulcerative colitis (UC), you may
be interested in learning more about a 6-week clinical research
study evaluating the safety and effectiveness of an investigational
dose of mesalamine.
Those who meet the eligibility requirements will join the more
than 400 volunteers who will participate in this study at 150
medical offices in 15 countries.
You may be eligible if you are 18 to 75 years old and are
experiencing active UC symptoms (flare of symptoms). All
study-related procedures and medications will be provided to you at
no cost.
As a study participant, you will be asked to:
- Attend four study visits during a 6-week period
- Take the study medication each day, and
- Have blood tests and study-related physical and clinical
exams
Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two study
groups to test two doses of the study medication.
If you would like more information about this study currently
underway in your area, please contact us at 866-788-3940 (toll
free) or visit us at www.ascendUCstudy.com. If you or your physician
is considering changes in your current treatment, please contact us
to see if you may be eligible to participate.
If your UC is not currently in flare, I hope you will consider
participating in the ASCEND II study if your status changes.
