Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Number of Participants With Marked Improvement at Week 24 Marked improvement is defined as the combination of both global assessment of gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms and endoscopic improvement grades of =1. Global assessment of GI symptoms is a participant-assessed, investigator-confirmed grading of global symptoms from 0 to 4: 0=free of symptoms; 1=symptoms existed in past 2 weeks but did not affect participant's daily life; 2=symptoms existed in past 2 weeks and slightly affected participant's daily life; 3=symptoms existed in past 2 weeks and affected participant's daily life; 4=symptoms existed in past 2 weeks and critically affected participant's daily life. Endoscopic improvement was assessed in 4 grades compared to the screening endoscopy based on the longest diameter (none, =1 cm to <2 cm, =2 cm to <3 cm, =3 cm) of ileocecal largest open ulcer (area of mucosal defect). Grades are: 0=healing; 1=marked reduction (reduction to =1/4); 2=reduction (reduction to =1/2 - 1/4); 3=no change or worse (reduction less than 1/2 or expansion). 24 weeks No
Secondary Number of Participants With Marked Improvement at Week 52 Marked improvement is defined as the combination of both global assessment of gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms and endoscopic improvement grades of =1. Global assessment of GI symptoms is a participant-assessed, investigator-confirmed grading of global symptoms from 0 to 4: 0=free of symptoms; 1=symptoms existed in past 2 weeks but did not affect participant's daily life; 2=symptoms existed in past 2 weeks and slightly affected participant's daily life; 3=symptoms existed in past 2 weeks and affected participant's daily life; 4=symptoms existed in past 2 weeks and critically affected participant's daily life. Endoscopic improvement was assessed in 4 grades compared to the screening endoscopy based on the longest diameter (none, =1 cm to <2 cm, =2 cm to <3 cm, =3 cm) of ileocecal largest open ulcer (area of mucosal defect). Grades are: 0=healing; 1=marked reduction (reduction to =1/4); 2=reduction (reduction to =1/2 - 1/4); 3=no change or worse (reduction less than 1/2 or expansion). 52 weeks No
Secondary Number of Participants With Complete Remission at Week 24 and Week 52 Complete remission was defined as both endoscopic improvement and global assessment of gastrointestinal symptoms grades of 0. Endoscopic improvement was assessed in 4 grades compared to the screening (baseline) endoscopy based on the longest diameter (none, =1 cm to <2 cm, =2 cm to <3 cm, =3 cm) of ileocecal largest open ulcer (area of mucosal defect). Grades are: 0=healing; 1=marked reduction (reduction to =1/4); 2=reduction (reduction to =1/2 - 1/4); 3=no change or worse (reduction less than 1/2 or expansion). Global assessment of gastrointestinal symptoms is a participant-assessed, investigator-confirmed grading of global symptoms from 0 to 4: 0=free of symptoms; 1=symptoms existed in past 2 weeks but did not affect participant's daily life; 2=symptoms existed in past 2 weeks and slightly affected participant's daily life; 3=symptoms existed in past 2 weeks and affected participant's daily life; 4=symptoms existed in past 2 weeks and critically affected participant's daily life. 24 weeks, 52 weeks No
Secondary Number of Participants With a Global Assessment of Gastrointestinal Symptoms Grade 0 or =1 and Improvement of =1 Grade at Week 24 and Week 52 Study participants completed a global assessment of their gastrointestinal symptoms (Behçet's disease symptoms other than gastrointestinal symptoms were excluded) during 2 weeks before assessment visit on a 5-grade scale. The investigator confirmed this assessment via interview with participants. Assessment is graded from 0 to 4: 0=free of symptoms; 1=symptoms existed in past 2 weeks but did not affect participant's daily life; 2=symptoms existed in past 2 weeks and slightly affected participant's daily life; 3=symptoms existed in past 2 weeks and affected participant's daily life; 4=symptoms existed in past 2 weeks and critically affected participant's daily life. Global assessment of grade 0 or =1 and improvement of =1 (from baseline) is presented. 24 weeks, 52 weeks No
Secondary Number of Participants With Endoscopic Improvement Grades 0, =1 and =2 at Week 24 and Week 52 Endoscopic improvement was assessed in 4 grades compared to the screening (baseline) endoscopy based on the longest diameter (none, =1 cm to <2 cm, =2 cm to <3 cm, =3 cm) of ileocecal largest open ulcer (area of mucosal defect). Grades are: 0=healing; 1=marked reduction (reduction to =1/4); 2=reduction (reduction to =1/2 - 1/4); 3=no change or worse (reduction less than 1/2 or expansion). 24 weeks, 52 weeks No
Secondary Number of Participants With Abdominal Pain, Diarrhea and Other Gastrointestinal (GI) Symptoms Grade =1 and Improvement of =1 Grade at Week 24 and Week 52 Participants assessed their abdominal pain, diarrhea and other gastrointestinal symptoms (abdominal discomfort, abdominal fullness, etc) during 2 weeks before assessment visit in 5 grades. Investigator confirmed the assessment through interview with participants. Assessment is graded from 0 to 4: 0=free of symptoms; 1=symptoms existed in past 2 weeks but did not affect participant's daily life; 2=symptoms existed in past 2 weeks and slightly affected participant's daily life; 3=symptoms existed in past 2 weeks and affected participant's daily life; 4=symptoms existed in past 2 weeks and critically affected participant's daily life. Improvement of =1 grade from baseline is also presented. 24 weeks, 52 weeks No
Secondary Number of Participants With Resolution of Behçet's Disease Symptoms (Other Than Gastrointestinal Symptoms) at Week 24 and Week 52 Investigators assessed oral aphthous (mouth ulcers), skin symptoms, eye symptoms and vulval (genital) ulcers during 4 weeks before study visit via participant interview, using the following grades. Oral aphthous: 0=None; 1=Symptom existed less than 2 weeks in recent 4 weeks; 2=Symptom existed 2 weeks or more in recent 4 weeks; 3=Symptom existed mostly in recent 4 weeks. Skin (Erythema nodosum rash): 0=None; 1=Symptom existed less than 2 weeks in recent 4 weeks; 2=Symptom existed 2 weeks or more in recent 4 weeks; 3=Symptom existed mostly in recent 4 weeks. Eye (Uveitis): 0=None; 1=one eye crisis in recent 4 weeks; 2=two eye crises in recent 4 weeks; 3=three eye crises in recent 4 weeks. Vulval (genital) ulcer: 0=None; 1=Symptom existed less than 2 weeks in recent 4 weeks; 2=Symptom existed 2 weeks or more in recent 4 weeks; 3=Symptom existed mostly in recent 4 weeks. Resolution was defined as: Behçet's disease symptoms other than gastrointestinal symptoms were graded 0 (disappeared). 24 weeks, 52 weeks No
Secondary Mean Change From Baseline in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ) at Week 24 and Week 52 Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ) is the standard questionnaire to assess the quality of life of patients with inflammatory bowel disease. The IBDQ is a 32-item questionnaire consisting of 4 dimensions: bowel-related symptoms, systemic function, social function and emotional status. The responses to each question within each domain range from 1 (significant impairment) to 7 (no impairment), with total score ranging from 32 (very poor) to 224 (perfect health-related quality of life). Baseline, 24 weeks, 52 weeks No
Secondary Mean Change From Baseline in Short Form-36 (SF-36) Summary Scores at Week 24 and Week 52 The Short-Form-36 (SF-36) Health Survey is a comprehensive quality of life scale. An increase in SF-36 score indicates alleviation of the disease and a decrease in score indicates aggravation of disease. The physical component reflects activity level, activity limitations, pain and rating of one's health. Score on the physical component ranges from 0 (poorest health) to 100 (best health). The mental component reflects vitality, social functioning, role-emotional and mental health. Score on the mental component ranges from 0 (poorest health) to 100 (best health). Baseline, 24 weeks, 52 weeks No
Secondary Median Change From Baseline in C-Reactive Protein (CRP) at Week 24 and Week 52 C-Reactive Protein (CRP) normal range was defined as =0.3 mg/dL. Baseline, 24 weeks, 52 weeks No
