Study Summary

This was an open-label study to provide an opportunity for participants with Ulcerative Colitis (UC) who previously completed Study C13002 (NCT01177228), and for treatment-naïve participants with UC or Crohn's Disease (CD) to receive treatment with vedolizumab, and to determine the long term safety of vedolizumab in patients afflicted with these diseases.

Study Description

This was a phase 2, multiple-dose, open-label study of vedolizumab administered intravenously (IV) every 8 weeks. The study population included treatment-naïve ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn's Disease (CD) participants, as well as 38 UC participants who had tolerated vedolizumab well during Study C13002 (NCT01177228).

In the original study protocol, all participants were randomized to receive vedolizumab at doses of either 6 mg/kg or 10 mg/kg. With the implementation of Amendment 1, the assigned doses of vedolizumab were decreased to 2.0 mg/kg and 6.0 mg/kg. To implement the dose changes, instead of randomizing all participants across both doses, those who rolled over from Study C13002 were reassigned to receive the 2.0 mg/kg dose and all participants who entered C13004 naïve to treatment were to receive the 6.0 mg/kg dose, starting on the next scheduled dosing day. Also, if participants assigned to the 2 mg/kg dose experienced flare, they were to receive the higher 6 mg/kg dose.

In the results analyses for this study, participants are grouped according to the lowest dose received, i.e., 2.0 mg/kg or 6.0 mg/kg vedolizumab.
