AND IL-23p19 ANTIBODIES FOR THE TREATMENT OF ULCERATIVE COLITIS REFERENCE TO SEQUENCE LISTING SUBMITTED ELECTRONICALLY

[0001] The present application is filed along with a Sequence Listing in ST.26 XML format. The Sequence Listing is provided as a filed titled “31043_WO.xml”, created on 8 September 2025 and is 21 kilobytes in size. The Sequence Listing information in the ST.26 XML format is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0002] The present invention relates to methods and uses of antibodies that bind to ELR+ CXC chemokines in simultaneous combination, separate combination and / or sequential combination with antibodies that bind to human IL-23p19 for the treatment of ulcerative colitis. The present invention also relates to doses and dosing regimens for the methods and uses of antibodies that bind to ELR+ CXC chemokines in simultaneous combination, separate combination and / or sequential combination with antibodies that bind to human IL-23p19 for the treatment of ulcerative colitis. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0003] Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic disease of unknown cause, characterized by inflammation in the colon. Patients have intermittent disease flares interspersed with periods of remission; the primary symptoms include blood in the stool, diarrhea, bowel urgency, and abdominal pain. Many patients with UC experience a severe clinical course: approximately 30% require colectomy within 10 years of diagnosis (Ordás et al., Lancet, Vol.380, No.9853, pp1606-1619, 2012). The treatment goal in UC is the induction and maintenance of remission (including steroid-free remission). Conventional medications used for treatment of UC include 5–aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA), steroids, and immunosuppressive drugs such as azathioprine (AZA) and 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP). However, as many as 40% of patients with UC do not respond or maintain a response to conventional medications and require secondary drug treatment or colectomy (Burger D et al., Gastroenterology, Vol.140, No.6, pp1827-1837, 2011). As a result, various biologics that target specific immunological pathways have been studied as potential therapeutics for UC.because members of the chemokine family all possess an E-L-R amino acid motif immediately adjacent to their CXC motif) play an important role in a variety of pathogenic mechanisms.

[0005] Chemokines are grouped into four subfamilies: CXC, CC, (X)C, and CX3C. In the CXC chemokines, one amino acid separates the first two cysteines (“the CXC motif”). ELR+ CXC chemokines are ligands for CXCR l and / or CXCR2 chemokine receptors, which are G-protein coupled seven transmembrane domain-type receptors that specifically bind ELR+ CXC chemokines. The seven human ELR+ CXC chemokines are human growth-regulated oncogene (“Gro”)-alpha (also known as CXCL1), human Gro- beta (also known as CXCL2), human Gro-gamma (also known as CXCL3), human ENA- 78 (also known as CXCL5 or human epithelial neutrophil activating peptide-78), human GCP-2 (also known as CXCL6 or human granulocyte chemotactic protein-2), human NAP-2 (also known as CXCL7 or human neutrophil activating protein-2), and human IL- 8 (also known as CXCL8 or human interleukin-8). All ELR+ CXC chemokines bind the CXCR2 receptor; moreover, some ELR+ CXC chemokines bind both CXCR l and CXCR2 receptors (i.e., CXCL6 and CXCL8), all of which contributes to redundancy in the activation pathways.

[0006] Antibodies that bind to ELR+ CXC chemokines have been previously described, e.g., in WO 2014149733, EP 2970447B1, US 9290570, WO 2008130969, including eltrekibart described herein that binds and neutralizes all seven human ELR+ CXC chemokines. Given their ability to bind and neutralize all seven human ELR+ CXC chemokines, those antibodies may offer advantages over monotherapies targeting single human ELR+ CXC chemokines and combination therapies targeting multiple human ELR+ CXC chemokines.

[0007] Interleukin-23 (IL-23), a member of the interleukin-12 (IL-12) family of cytokines, is a heterodimeric protein composed of two subunits: the p40 subunit, which is shared by IL-12, and the p19 subunit, which is specific to IL-23. IL-23 receptor engagement leads to activation of JAKs (mainly TYK2 and JAK2) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 and 4 (STAT3 and STAT4), triggering transcription of downstream target genes. IL-23 promotes the differentiation, maintenance and stabilization of pathogenic T-cell lineages, including populations that simultaneously produce multiple pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as interferon-γ, IL-17A, IL-17F andof effector function of colitogenic innate lymphoid cells. Anti-IL-23p19 and IL-12 / IL-23p40 antibodies have been approved for the treatment of UC.

[0008] Antibodies that bind to human IL-23p19 include mirikizumab. Mirikizumab is a humanized IgG4 variant mAb that is directed against the p19 subunit of IL-23 and does not bind IL-12. Mirikizumab is approved for the treatment of UC in adult patients. Treatment of adult patients with mirikizumab has been reported in WO2019191464.

[0009] There remains a need for treatment options for ulcerative colitis that lead to improved outcomes for patients, for example, in terms of efficacy, safety and / or tolerability of the treatment. In particular, there remains a need for treatment options in the form of dosage regimen that provide improved efficacy. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0058] As used herein, the term “human ELR+ CXC chemokines” refers to the seven known CXC chemokines that have an E-L-R motif and that bind to CXCR l and / or CXCR2 receptor. The human ELR+ CXC chemokines are human Gro-alpha (also known as CXCL1) (SEQ ID NO: 11), human Gro-beta (also known as CXCL2) (SEQ ID NO: 12), human Gro-gamma (also known as CXCL3) (SEQ ID NO: 13), human ENA-78 (also known as CXCL5) (SEQ ID NO: 14), human GCP-2 (also known as CXCL6) (SEQ ID NO: 15), human NAP-2 (also known as CXCL7) (SEQ ID NO: 16), and human IL-8 (also known as CXCL8) (SEQ ID NO: 17). Collectively, all seven human ELR+ CXC chemokines are called “human pan-ELR+ CXC chemokines” herein.

[0059] The term “antibody,” as used herein, refers to an immunoglobulin molecule that binds an antigen. Embodiments of an antibody include a monoclonal antibody, polyclonal antibody, human antibody, humanized antibody, chimeric antibody, or conjugated antibody. The antibodies can be of any class (e.g., IgG, IgE, IgM, IgD, IgA) and any subclass (e.g., IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4).G (IgG) type antibody comprised of four polypeptide chains: two heavy chains (HC) and two light chains (LC) that are cross-linked via inter-chain disulfide bonds. The amino-terminal portion of each of the four polypeptide chains includes a variable region of about 100-125 or more amino acids primarily responsible for antigen recognition. The carboxyl-terminal portion of each of the four polypeptide chains contains a constant region primarily responsible for effector function. Each heavy chain is comprised of a heavy chain variable region (VH) and a heavy chain constant region. Each light chain is comprised of a light chain variable region (VL) and a light chain constant region. The IgG isotype may be further divided into subclasses (e.g., IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, and IgG4).

[0061] The VH and VL regions can be further subdivided into regions of hyper- variability, termed complementarity determining regions (CDRs), interspersed with regions that are more conserved, termed framework regions (FR). The CDRs are exposed on the surface of the protein and are important regions of the antibody for antigen binding specificity. Each VH and VL is composed of three CDRs and four FRs, arranged from amino-terminus to carboxyl-terminus in the following order: FR1, CDR1, FR2, CDR2, FR3, CDR3, FR4. Herein, the three CDRs of the heavy chain are referred to as “HCDR1, HCDR2, and HCDR3” and the three CDRs of the light chain are referred to as “LCDR1, LCDR2 and LCDR3”. The CDRs contain most of the residues that form specific interactions with the antigen. Assignment of amino acid residues to the CDRs may be done according to the well-known schemes, including those described in Kabat (Kabat et al., “Sequences of Proteins of Immunological Interest,” National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Md. (1991)), Chothia (Chothia et al., “Canonical structures for the hypervariable regions of immunoglobulins”, Journal of Molecular Biology, 196, 901-917 (1987); Al-Lazikani et al., “Standard conformations for the canonical structures of immunoglobulins”, Journal of Molecular Biology, 273, 927-948 (1997)), North (North et al., “A New Clustering of Antibody CDR Loop Conformations”, Journal of Molecular Biology, 406, 228-256 (2011)), or IMGT (the international ImMunoGeneTics database available on at www.imgt.org; see Lefranc et al., Nucleic Acids Res.1999; 27:209-212). Assignment of amino acid residues to the CDRs may be done according to a combination of the schemes described above. The Chothia CDR definitions are identical to the Kabat CDR definitions with the exception of HCDRl and HCDR2. For the purposes of thethe Kabat and Chothia definitions are used to define CDRs. The assignment of amino acids in the HCVR and LCVR regions is in accordance with the Kabat numbering convention. It is further understood that the term “antibody” encompasses any cellular post-translational modifications to the antibody including, but not limited to, acylation and glycosylation.

[0062] Embodiments of the present disclosure also include antibody fragments or antigen-binding fragments that, as used herein, comprise at least a portion of an antibody retaining the ability to specifically interact with an antigen or an epitope of the antigen, such as Fab, Fab’, F(ab’)2, Fv fragments, scFv antibody fragments, scFab, disulfide- linked Fvs (sdFv), a Fd fragment.

[0063] As used herein, the term “septa-specific antibody” refers to an antibody that binds all seven human ELR+ CXC chemokines with high affinity (e.g., with binding affinity (KD) in the range of from about 5 x 10-11 M to about 1 x 10-9 M).

[0064] As used herein, a “patient” refers to a human having, or suspected of having, ulcerative colitis.

[0065] As used herein, “treatment” or “treating” refers to all processes wherein there may be a slowing, controlling, or stopping of the progression of the disorders disclosed herein, but does not necessarily indicate a total elimination of all disorder symptoms. Treatment includes administration of an antibody of the present invention for treatment of a disease or condition in a patient, particularly in a human.

[0066] UC is a form of colitis, an inflammatory disease of the intestine, usually the colon, which includes characteristic ulcers. Symptoms of active disease usually include diarrhea mixed with blood, usually accompanied with varying degrees of abdominal pain, from mild discomfort to severely painful cramps. Bowel urgency is also a common and disruptive symptom of ulcerative colitis (UC) and is distinct from stool frequency (SF) and rectal bleeding (RB).

[0067] There are a number of methods for assessing the severity of disease / clinical metrics, including the UC disease severity index, the Modified UC disease severity index, Pediatric Ulcerative Colitis Disease Activity Index (PUCAI), UC disease severity index Endoscopic Subscore, Ulcerative Colitis Endoscopic Index of Severity (UCEIS) Total Score, Geboes Score, Robarts Histopathology Index (RHI) and combinations thereof.composite instrument comprised of the following 4 subscores: · Stool Frequency (SF): The SF subscore is a patient-reported measure. This item reports the number of stools in a 24-hour period, relative to the normal number of stools for that patient in the same period, on a 4-point scale. A stool is defined as a trip to the toilet when the patient has either a bowel movement, or passes blood alone, blood and mucus, or mucus only. For a younger child, this includes each diaper change where stool is present. The total number of stools passed in a 24- hour period is recorded by the patient. The reference “normal” SF for that patient is typically recorded at the outset of a study or period of observation. Normal SF for that patient is based on the reported SF when the patient was in remission or, if the patient has never achieved remission, the reported SF before initial onset of signs and symptoms of UC. Stool Frequency Subscore Score Normal number of stools per day for subject 0 1 to 2 stools per day more than normal 1 3 to 4 stools per day more than normal 2 5 or more stools per day more than normal 3 · Rectal Bleeding: The RB subscore is a patient-reported measure. This item reports the most severe amount of blood passed per rectum for a given day, on a 4-point scale. Rectal Bleeding Subscore Score No blood seen 0 Streaks of blood with stool less than half of the time 1 Obvious blood (more than just streaks) or streaks of blood with stool most of the time 2 Blood alone passed 3 · Endoscopic Subscore (ES): The ES is a physician-reported measure that reports the worst appearance of the mucosa on flexible sigmoidoscopy or colonoscopy, onclinical practice, friability is excluded from the definition of an ES of 1. Endoscopic Subscore Score Normal or inactive disease 0 Mild disease (erythema, decreased vascular pattern) 1 Moderate disease (marked erythema, absent vascular pattern, friability, erosions) 2 Severe disease (spontaneous bleeding, ulceration) 3 · Physician’s Global Assessment (PGA): The PGA is a physician-reported measure that summarizes the assessment of the patient’s UC disease activity on a 4-point scale. Physician’s Global Assessment Score Normal 0 Mild disease 1 Moderate disease 2 Severe disease 3 Each subscore is scored on a 4-point scale, ranging from 0 to 3, to give a maximum UC disease severity index score of 12.

[0069] The Modified UC disease severity index is a modification made to the original UC disease severity index (Schroeder et al., New Eng J Med, 317(26):1625-1629, 1987) and includes 3 of the 4 subscores of the UC disease severity index. It does not include the Physician’s Global Assessment. The Modified UC disease severity index evaluates three subscores, each on a scale of 0 to 3 with a maximum total score of 9. Patients who have a UC disease severity index of 6-12 or a Modified UC disease severity index of 4-9, each with an ES of ≥ 2, are defined as having moderate to severely active ulcerative colitis.

[0070] The UC disease severity index ranges from 0 to 12, with higher scores indicating more severe disease. The partial UC disease severity index excludes endoscopy and ranges from 0 to 9, while the modified UC disease severity index excludes the Physician’s Global Assessment and also ranges from 0 to 9. The original description ofin the definition of an endoscopic subscore of 1.

[0071] Using the Modified UC disease severity index, as used herein, “clinical remission” is defined as a RB subscore of 0, SF subscore of 0 or 1 and ES of 0 or 1 (excluding friability).

[0072] Using the Modified UC disease severity index, as used herein, “clinical response” is defined as achieving a decrease in the Modified UC disease severity index score of ≥2 points and ≥ 30% from baseline, and either a decrease in the RB subscore of ≥1 or an RB subscore of 0 or 1.

[0073] Using the Modified UC disease severity index, as used herein, “endoscopic remission” is defined as achieving a UC disease severity index ES of 0.

[0074] Using the Modified UC disease severity index, as used herein, “endoscopic improvement” is defined as having achieved a UC disease severity index ES of 0 or 1 (excluding friability).

[0075] “Histologic-endoscopic mucosal improvement (HEMI)” is defined as achieving both endoscopic improvement (centrally read endoscopy subscore of 0 or 1, excluding friability) and histologic improvement (neutrophil infiltration in <5% of crypts, no crypt destruction, and no erosions, ulcerations, or granulation tissue based on the Geboes scoring system).

[0076] “Histologic endoscopic mucosal remission (HEMR)” is defined as achieving both endoscopic remission and histologic remission (defined as Geboes histologic subscores of 0 for the neutrophils in lamina propria, neutrophils in epithelium, and erosion or ulceration parameters or defined as RHI score of ≤2).

[0077] Using the Modified UC disease severity index, as used herein “symptomatic remission” is defined as having achieved a SF subscore = 0 or SF subscore = 1 with a ≥1- point decrease from baseline, and a RB subscore = 0.

[0078] As used herein, “symptomatic response” is defined as ≥30% decrease from baseline in composite clinical endpoint of the sum of SF and RB subscores.

[0079] Using the Modified UC disease severity index, as used herein, “loss of response” is defined as: combined stool frequency (SF) + rectal bleeding (RB) score at each of 2 consecutive visits (≥7 days apart) is greater than the combined SF + RB score at the baseline (Week 0) visit and confirmed by endoscopic subscore of 2 or 3.used herein is defined as clinical remission at Week 52 without surgery, and no corticosteroid use for ≥ 12 weeks prior to week 52.

[0081] The Ulcerative Colitis Endoscopic Index of Severity (UCEIS) is a central-reader– reported instrument for measuring the endoscopic disease activity of UC on colonoscopy or flexible sigmoidoscopy, that includes 3 descriptors (scored on the most severe lesions): vascular pattern, bleeding, and erosions and ulcerations. The central reader will determine the UCEIS for each endoscopy in a blinded manner, as detailed in the Endoscopy Image Review charter.

[0082] Bowel urgency is measured by a Uniform Numeric Rating Score (UNRS) to assess mean change of bowel urgency severity. Bowel urgency, a sudden or immediate need to have a bowel movement, is a common and burdensome symptom for patients with ulcerative colitis. UNRS is a patient-reported measure of bowel urgency in the past 24 hours using an 11-point scale, from 0 (no urgency) to 10 (worst possible urgency). UNRS score is recorded daily by patients. Change in UNRS from baseline is measured, through week 12, week 28, week 52, or up to about 104 weeks of treatment. Clinically meaningful “improvement in bowel urgency” or clinically meaningful change in bowel urgency severity is defined as the proportion of patients achieving both clinical response, based on the Modified UC disease severity index and a UNRS score of ≥ 3 points of improvement from baseline. “Bowel urgency remission” is defined as minimal to no bowel urgency: UNRS [0,1]. as assessed at Week 12, week 28, and timepoints thereafter (maintenance) in patients with baseline UNRS ≥3.

[0083] Other measure of improvement include, abdominal pain NRS, Fatigue NRS, Nocturnal stools, Patient’s Global Impression of Change (PGI-C), Patient’s Global Rating of Severity (PGR-S). Such measures are evaluated by the participant and / or caregiver- reported outcomes.

[0084] The Geboes Score as used herein, is comprised of seven categories (or grades), each of which describes a histologic item, including “structural (architectural change)” (grade 0), “chronic inflammatory infiltrate” (grade 1), “lamina propria eosinophils” (grade 2A), “lamina propria neutrophils” (grade 2B), “neutrophils in epithelium” (grade 3), “crypt destruction” (grade 4) and “surface epithelial injury / erosion and ulcerations” (grade 5). Each grade includes subscores that indicate the degree of abnormality seen for that histologic characteristic, with subscores of 0 indicating normal appearance and higherappearance. The RHI uses the weighted results from 4 Geboes score categories (“chronic inflammatory infiltrate”, “lamina propria neutrophils”, “neutrophils in epithelium” and “surface epithelial injury / erosion and ulcerations”) to derive a continuous score, ranging from 0 (no disease activity) to 33 (severe disease activity). The RHI was developed as a responsive instrument to detect treatment effects in early drug development.

[0085] As such as used herein, a “therapeutic effect” or response to treatment can include any one or more of, clinical response, clinical remission, endoscopic remission, histologic-endoscopic mucosal remission, symptomatic remission, symptomatic response, histologic-endoscopic mucosal improvement, corticosteroid free remission, bowel urgency remission, improvement in bowel urgency, improvement in stool frequency, decrease in nocturnal stools, improvement in fatigue, improvement in abdominal pain, improvement in rectal bleeding, improvement in endoscopic response and / or improvement in other symptoms associated with ulcerative colitis.

[0086] “Sustained response” as used herein, is the percentage of patients who achieve a therapeutic effect during the maintenance period, among those patients that achieved a therapeutic effect in the induction period. For example, a sustained response as used herein, can be the percentage of patients who achieve clinical remission at week 52, among those patients who achieved clinical remission at week 12.

EXAMPLES

[0114] Example 1 – Antibodies that bind to ELR+ CXC chemokines and antibodies that bind to human IL-23p19 may yield enhanced clinical efficacy in UC

[0115] Combination therapy with antibodies that bind to ELR+ CXC chemokines, such as eltrekibart, and antibodies that bind to human IL-23p19, such as mirikizumab may induce more rapid therapeutic effects, such as symptomatic, clinical and / or histologic improvement in more patients with UC compared to either agent alone due to antibodiesdirect effects on neutrophil chemotaxis to sites of inflammation.

[0116] IL-23 has multiple proinflammatory effects, including induction of Th17 cells. These cells express IL-17, IL-22, and other mediators that contribute to the pathogenesis of UC. IL-17, in particular, induces the expression of multiple CXCR1 / 2 ligands from epithelial cells and these ligands are neutrophil chemoattractants. Treatments targeting IL 23 alone may not completely block CXCR1 / 2 ligand expression and subsequent neutrophil migration. Antibodies that bind to ELR+ CXC chemokines and have a direct effect on CXCR1 / 2 ligands may result in more rapid blockade of neutrophil migration compared to therapeutics that regulate the expression of these ligands incompletely and indirectly.

[0117] As part of the invention, post hoc analyses of the mirikizumab Phase 3 UC Study I6T-MC-AMAN (LUCENT-1) show a correlation between histologic assessment from colon biopsies and clinical response, where greater histologic response is associated with greater clinical response (Table 1).

[0118] Table 1 - Number (%) of mITT-Treated LUCENT-1 Participants with Histologic Improvement (2B.0<Geboes ≤ 3.1), Histologic Remission (Geboes ≤ 2B.0), or no Histologic Improvement at Week 12 that Did or Did Not Achieve Clinical Response at Week 12 Histological DID Achieve Clinical Did NOT Achieve T l N

[0119] Importantly, the Geboes histologic scoring system (Geboes, K., Riddell, R., Öst, A., Jensfelt, B., Persson, T. and Löfberg, R., 2000. A reproducible grading scale for histological assessment of inflammation in ulcerative colitis. Gut, 47(3), pp.404-409) is based on neutrophil tissue presence:are not present in the lamina propria or epithelium - a score of ≤3.1 indicates neutrophils may be present in the lamina propria and in less than 5% of epithelial crypts.

[0120] Therefore, the LUCENT-1 data suggest an association between persistent tissue neutrophil presence and decreased clinical response. The combination therapy with antibodies that bind to ELR+ CXC chemokines, such as eltrekibart, and antibodies that bind to human IL-23p19, such as mirikizumab, may therefore yield enhanced clinical efficacy in UC.

[0121] Eltrekibart binds to all 7 human CXCR1 / 2 ligands via a common ELR+ epitope. This direct effect on CXCR1 / 2 ligands may result in more rapid blockade of neutrophil migration compared to therapeutics that regulate expression of these ligands incompletely and indirectly. The effect of eltrekibart on inhibition of neutrophil migration in vivo is supported by the following evidence: i) In a DSS mouse model of acute intestinal inflammation, eltrekibart decreased myeloperoxidase content in colon lysates and stool by approximately 50%, demonstrating a decrease in neutrophil infiltration compared with control- treated mice. These effects were observed though eltrekibart neutralizes only 3 out of the 5 mouse ligands to CXCR1 and CXCR2. ii) In the Phase 2 proof-of-concept Study I7P-MC-DSAD, eltrekibart demonstrated efficacy in patients with moderate-to-severe HS. HS is a chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by neutrophil-rich lesions.

[0122] A combination treatment with antibodies that bind to ELR+ CXC chemokines, such as eltrekibart, and antibodies that bind to human IL-23p19, such as mirikizumab, may induce more rapid clinical and histologic improvement in more patients with UC than either agent alone, due to the critical role of neutrophils in UC and antibodies that bind to ELR+ CXC chemokines, such as eltrekibart’s direct role in limiting CXCR1 / 2 ligand-mediated neutrophil chemotaxis. In addition, simultaneously inhibiting both (i) CXCR1 / 2 ligand and (ii) IL-23 may yield greater therapeutic effects or response to treatment, such as greater or more rapid rates of symptomatic response / remission and / or clinical response / remission versus those achieved with either intervention alone.Ranging, Phase 2 Study of Eltrekibart Given Alone or in Combination with Mirikizumab for the Treatment of Adult Patients with Moderately to Severely Active Ulcerative Colitis

[0124] This study is an adaptive Phase 2, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo- controlled, parallel-group, dose-ranging study to evaluate eltrekibart given alone or in combination with mirikizumab for the treatment of adult patients with moderately to severely active UC. Enrolled study participants will have either ● an inadequate response to, loss of response to, or be intolerant to corticosteroid or immunomodulator therapy for UC (termed “conventional-failed” in this protocol), or ● an inadequate response to, loss of response to, or are intolerant to biologic or biosimilar, JAK inhibitor, or S1P receptor modulator therapy for UC (termed “advanced therapy-failed” in this protocol).

[0125] Moderate to severe UC is defined as a Modified UC disease severity index of 6 to 12, with an endoscopic subscore of ≥ 2. Screening is required within 35 days prior to enrollment. In some embodiments, patients have moderately to severely active UC defined as a score of 5 to 9 on the sum of SF, RB, and ES from the UC disease severity index, with an ES ≥2, with colonoscopy performed within 14 days before baseline. For each participant, the total duration of the clinical trial will be about 69 weeks including screening.

[0127] This adaptive study has 2 stages. The Stage 1 treatment groups include eltrekibart, placebo, mirikizumab, and eltrekibart in combination with mirikizumab. Stage 2 consists of 3 options (A, B, C), only one of which will be implemented. Results from Stage 1 will determine, based on sponsor internal criteria, whether monotherapy and / or combination therapy will be evaluated further to enable future studies. This decision will determine the option selected for Stage 2.

[0135] Screening Period

[0136] The Screening Period begins with Visit 1, which occurs over a period of time starting up to 5 weeks before the participant’s planned randomization visit. A participant’s screening evaluations must be completed and reviewed to confirm the participant’s eligibility before randomization and dosing occur at Week 0 (Visit 2).

[0137] Induction Period

[0138] The placebo-controlled, 12-week Induction Period begins with the induction dose given at Week 0. Dosing, sample collection, and assessments continue Q2W, as shown in the SoA. The period ends with the sample collections and assessments performed for Week 12.

[0139] Based on the sample collections and assessments performed for Week 12, participants will be classified as either “Week 12 Responder” or “Week 12 Nonresponder” using the “clinical response” criteria.

[0140] Maintenance Period

[0141] The Maintenance Period begins with the dose administered for Week 12. The period ends with the sample collections and assessments performed for Week 52.

[0142] During this period, participants will receive a maintenance treatment based on · their Week 12 responder or nonresponder status determined by diary entries and colonoscopy, · the induction period treatment assignment, and · the maintenance treatments planned for use in the relevant stage.

[0143] Rescue Therapy

[0144] Stage 1 will not include rescue therapy

[0145] Stage 2

[0146] The Maintenance Period of Stage 2 will include rescue therapy for certain participants, as described in Table 5.

[0150] To assess UC disease activity for the primary endpoint and several secondary endpoints, this study uses scores from the UC disease activity score.

[0151] Complete and accurate daily recording of the SF and RB subscores by participants in their daily electronic diary is necessary for the success of the study. Adequate bowel preparation and a colonoscopy with adequate visualization of the mucosa will enable calculation of the ES.

[0152] Table 6 defines the primary endpoint and several secondary endpoints.

It was calculated that at least 3 participants have likely been assigned to combination treatment (i.e. eltrekibart + mirikizumab) at the time that a total of 15 participants have received treatment. The Phase 2 Study is blinded, therefore the actual number of participants assigned to each study treatment remains unknown.
