NCT ID:
NCT05069259
Brief Summary:
This study is expected to contribute to the body of real-world data of tofacitinib's safety and efficacy profile in ulcerative colitis. Conventional clinical outcomes will give a better understanding of response and remission rates in a representative, post-marketing population.
Regular patient questionnaires and measurement of a biomarker of gut inflammation will provide detail on how patients experience induction treatment and contextualise the efficacy data.
Detailed Description:
This is a low-interventional study in which the intervention under study is home fecal calprotectin testing which falls outside of normal standard of care in ulcerative colitis. Tofacitinib is prescribed and administered as per the Swiss prescribing information. Accordingly, this study is registered on ClinicalTrials.gov as an interventional study. Under Swiss law, this study is considered and approved as a non-interventional study (Category A, Human Research Ordinance, Swiss Confederation).
