Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults with a confirmed diagnosis of ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease and moderate-to-severe activity who have not adequately responded to corticosteroids, immunomodulators, or advanced therapies.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with mild disease, those who do not meet activity criteria, or those who have contraindications to the study drugs may not benefit.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
A master protocol will support multiple sub-studies that share core design elements. Eligible participants will be assigned to the appropriate sub-study before randomization to a treatment group. The sub-studies aim to test the efficacy and safety of new therapies in adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease over at least 62 weeks. Treatments include Mirikizumab given by IV or SC and LY4395089. Eligibility requires confirmed UC or CD with specific activity scores and prior inadequate response or intolerance to standard therapies.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, participants may experience improvements in disease activity and quality of life from new treatment options.
How similar studies have gone: Past studies of similar targeted therapies in inflammatory bowel disease have shown promise, though results vary by drug and patient group.

Have a centrally read Simple Endoscopic Score for Crohn's Disease (SES-CD) score ≥6 for participants with ileal-colonic or ≥4 for participants with isolated ileal disease. * Must have demonstrated an inadequate response, loss of response, or intolerance to at least one of the following: corticosteroids, immunomodulators, or an advanced therapy for UC or CD * Have screening laboratory test results within the protocol specified parameters. Exclusion Criteria: * Must not have a current diagnosis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)-unclassified or primary sclerosing cholangitis * For UC - must not have a current diagnosis of CD * For CD - must not have a current diagnosis of UC * Must not have had or will need bowel resection or intestinal or intra-abdominal surgery as specified in the protocol * Must not have complications of UC or CD, including but not limited to stricture or stenosis (some exceptions allowed for CD) or short bowel syndrome * Must not have a significant uncontrolled illness that in the opinion of the investigator may compromise the participant's safety or interfere with interpretation of data * Must not have failed more than 5 approved advanced treatments for UC or CD with different mechanisms of action * Must not have failed an anti-interleukin-23p19 (anti-IL-23p19) antibody treatment * Must not have received or will need any prohibited medications for UC or CD as specified in the protocol
