The only advanced therapy* proven to help patients calm the chaos of symptoms of isolated proctitis in phase 3 randomised clinical trialsVELSIPITY® induced and sustained clinical remission in patients with isolated proctitis in ELEVATE UC 52 and ELEVATE UC 121
Advanced therapies include S1P receptor modulators, biologics, and JAK inhibitors.2Clinical remission was defined as a stool frequency (SF) subscore of 0 (or of 1 with a ≥1-point decrease from baseline), a rectal bleeding (RB) subscore of 0, and an endoscopy score (ES) ≤1 (excluding friability).3Analysis of outcomes was not powered for statistical significance. Nominal P values are reported without adjustment for multiple comparisons.2,4Subjects with isolated proctitis at baseline (defined as <10 cm of rectal involvement) met all other eligibility criteria for inclusion: an mMS of 4 to 9, a centrally read endoscopic subscore (ES) ≥2, and a rectal bleeding (RB) subscore ≥1.2
