A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Multicenter Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of Budesonide Foam Versus Placebo in Subjects With Active Mild to Moderate Ulcerative Proctitis or Proctosigmoiditis


The purpose of this study is to establish the efficacy profile of rectally administered
budesonide foam administered as 2mg/25mL BID for 2 weeks followed by 2mg/25mL QD for 4
weeks, as compared to an equivalent volume of rectally administered placebo foam over the
same dosing schedule, in subjects who present with a diagnosis of active, mild to moderate,
ulcerative proctitis (UP) or ulcerative proctosigmoiditis (UPS). During the study, eligible
subjects will be allowed to maintain previously established oral 5-ASA treatment at doses up
to 4.8g/day.


This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center study to
assess the efficacy and safety of budesonide foam in subjects with active mild to moderate
proctitis or proctosigmoiditis. Approximately 430 subjects will be enrolled into the study
and receive either placebo foam or budesonide foam twice a day for 2 weeks followed by once
a day for 4 weeks. Participation in the study will last approximately 11 weeks, depending
on the timing of study visits.

During the study, eligible subjects will be allowed to maintain previously established oral
5-ASA treatment at doses up to 4.8g/day. Periodic safety monitoring, including physical
examinations, vitals, laboratory testing, and recording of AEs and concomitant medications,
will be performed during the study
