How afimkibart may affect medicine processing in people with active ulcerative colitis
Official title: A Phase I, Multicenter, Open-Label, Single-Agent Study to Assess the Pharmacokinetics of Cytochrome P450 Substrates After Treatment With Afimkibart in Participants With Moderately to Severely Active Ulcerative Colitis
Run by Hoffmann-La Roche · NCT07665723 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This early-stage study tests whether afimkibart changes how the body processes several common drugs in people with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (Mayo 5–9 with endoscopic subscore 2–3) who weigh at least 40 kg and agree to contraceptive requirements.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with inactive UC, Crohn's disease, certain comorbid conditions, or those not meeting endoscopic criteria may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This Phase 1 interventional study examines the drug-drug interaction potential of afimkibart by measuring the pharmacokinetics of cytochrome P450 enzyme substrates alone and after afimkibart in adults with active ulcerative colitis. The study uses a multi-substance approach with probes including caffeine, warfarin, omeprazole, and dextromethorphan to see how afimkibart affects their metabolism. Enrollment targets participants with confirmed UC and active disease, aligned with specific endoscopic and Mayo scores. Safety monitoring and centralized endoscopy reviews are likely part of the protocol given the disease context. The goal is to understand whether afimkibart alters drug levels and exposure in this patient population.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the findings could guide safer medication use for people with UC who need afimkibart alongside other drugs.
How similar studies have gone: Previous PK-DDDI studies with similar CYP probes have informed dosing in other inflammatory conditions, supporting the approach's validity, though afimkibart-specific data are still emerging.
