Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion
- Male or female participants aged 18 to 70 years at baseline (week 0).
- Active Crohn's Disease: Participants must have active Crohn's disease at baseline, defined as: CDAI \> 150 and Endoscopic activity with SES-CD \> 6, or SES-CD \> 4 (for isolated ileal disease), excluding the contribution of the stricture component (Excluding the stricture component ensures recruitment of patients with a better chance of improvement, given the primary endpoint is endoscopic remission), and at least one of the following: CRP \> 10 mg/L (upper limit of normal on local assay), Fecal calprotectin (FC) \> 250 μg/g, active disease confirmed by imaging.
- Prior Ustekinumab Treatment: Participants must have had primary non-response or secondary loss of response to TNFi, and have undergone at least 16-24 weeks of standard-dose ustekinumab treatment, but still have active CD.
- Consent and Compliance: Participants must be capable and willing to provide written informed consent and comply with the requirements of the study protocol.
- General Health: The principal investigator (or designee) must determine that the participant is in good general health based on medical history, laboratory test results, physical examination, chest X-ray (CXR), and 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) obtained during the screening period.
Exclusion
- Allergies: Participants with known allergies to UPA or UST excipients or components.
- Colonic Neoplasia: Participants with untreated or unresolved high-grade dysplasia or colon cancer.
- Active Infections: Participants with active infections at screening or baseline, including but not limited to pneumonia, pyelonephritis, or herpes zoster, or those with evidence of chronic infections that make them unsuitable for the study as per the investigator's assessment.
- Surgical Intervention: Participants who currently require or are expected to require surgical intervention for CD during the study period.
- Thrombosis: Participants with thrombosis identified through limb venous Doppler ultrasound or D-dimer screening.
- Lymphoproliferative Disorders: Participants with a history of lymphoproliferative disorders, including lymphoma, or those with signs and symptoms indicative of possible lymphoproliferative disease such as lymphadenopathy and/or splenomegaly.
- Immunodeficiency: Participants with any known congenital or acquired immunodeficiency, including common variable immunodeficiency, HIV infection, or organ transplantation.
- Pregnancy: Female participants with a positive pregnancy test at screening or baseline (week 0).
- Lactation or Pregnancy Plans: Female participants who are breastfeeding or planning to become pregnant during the study.
- Substance Abuse: Participants with a history of drug abuse (defined as the use of any illicit drug) or alcohol abuse within 1 year prior to screening.
- Investigator's Discretion: Participants deemed unsuitable for the study by the investigator for any reason.
