Background: Filgotinib, an oral, once-daily, Janus kinase 1 preferential inhibitor, is an approved treatment for moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis.

Aims: The aim of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of continued filgotinib therapy over ~4 years in the long-term extension of the phase 2b/3 SELECTION trial (SELECTIONLTE; NCT02914535).

Methods: In this interim analysis of SELECTIONLTE, SELECTION completers (week 10 responders to filgotinib who completed the maintenance study) continued their assigned treatment (double-blind filgotinib 200 mg [FIL200] or filgotinib 100 mg) and SELECTION week 10 non-responders received open-label FIL200.

Continuous medical and safety monitoring of subject data during a clinical trial is a critical part of evaluating the safety of trial participants and as such is governed by protocol procedures and regulatory guidelines to meet the trial's intended objectives. We present an open-source validated graphical tool (clinDataReview R package) which provides access to the trial data with drill-down to individual patient profiles. The tool incorporates functionalities that facilitate detection of error and data inconsistencies requiring follow-up.

Background And Aims: SELECTION is the first study to assess the impact of concomitant thiopurine and other immunomodulator [IM] use on the efficacy and safety of a Janus kinase inhibitor, filgotinib, in patients with ulcerative colitis.

Methods: Data from the phase 2b/3 SELECTION study were used for this post hoc analysis. Patients were randomised [2:2:1] to two induction studies [biologic-naive, biologic-experienced] to filgotinib 200 mg, 100 mg, or placebo.

Background: Filgotinib 200 mg (FIL200) is an approved treatment for adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC).

Aim: To report integrated safety data from the phase 2b/3 SELECTION study (NCT02914522) and its ongoing long-term extension study SELECTIONLTE (NCT02914535).

Methods: Safety outcomes were analysed in adults with moderately to severely active UC who received FIL200, filgotinib 100 mg (FIL100) or placebo once daily throughout the 11-week SELECTION induction study, the 47-week SELECTION maintenance study (if applicable) and SELECTIONLTE (if applicable).

Background And Aims: Maintenance treatment for ulcerative colitis may be discontinued for multiple reasons. This post hoc analysis assessed the efficacy and safety of re-treatment with filgotinib, an oral, once-daily, Janus kinase 1 preferential inhibitor, in the phase 2b/3 SELECTION trial and its long-term extension [LTE] study in ulcerative colitis.

Methods: Partial Mayo Clinic Score [pMCS] response and remission were evaluated in patients who received induction with filgotinib 200 mg [FIL200] or 100 mg [FIL100], were randomized to treatment withdrawal [placebo] during maintenance, and following disease worsening, were re-treated with open-label FIL200 in the LTE study.

Background And Aims: Ulcerative colitis [UC] impacts patients' health-related quality of life [HRQoL]. We assessed HRQoL and an exploratory patient-level composite endpoint ('Comprehensive Disease Control' [CDC]) in individuals receiving filgotinib [an oral JAK1 preferential inhibitor] in the SELECTION trial.

Methods: In SELECTION [NCT02914522], a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, phase 2b/3 trial, adults with moderately to severely active UC received once-daily filgotinib 200 mg, filgotinib 100 mg or placebo for 11 weeks in Induction Study A [biologic-naïve] or B [biologic-experienced].
