The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficacy of golimumab in inducing clinical remission as assessed by the Mayo score, in pediatric participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC). In addition, the safety profile of golimumab, in pediatric participants with moderately to severely active UC will be assessed.
Phase 3 trials are pivotal studies with large patient populations (hundreds to thousands) designed to prove efficacy and safety for FDA submission. A successful Phase 3 readout is typically the last major hurdle before a New Drug Application (NDA) or BLA filing.
Enrollment is complete. The trial is in its follow-up or data collection phase — a readout may occur on or near the primary completion date.
Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) is the sponsoring company for this trial. BiotechSign currently grades this company C (51/100) based on composite catalyst signals across its full pipeline. This trial is one data point in that overall catalyst picture.
