Rapid relief of rectal bleeding and stool frequency as early as Week 21*†‡
Clinical remission§ at Week 8 and Week 52, and steroid-free clinical remission|| at Week 521
Endoscopic improvement¶ and histo-endoscopic** mucosal improvement at Week 8 and Week 521
The relationship between histo-endoscopic mucosal improvement to disease progression and long-term outcomes was not evaluated.
*U-ACHIEVE Induction: 60% on RINVOQ 45 mg vs 27% on placebo (P<0.001).2
†U-ACCOMPLISH Induction: 63% on RINVOQ 45 mg vs 26% on placebo (P<0.001).2
‡Clinical response per partial modified Mayo Score is a composite of Mayo stool frequency and rectal bleeding subscores and is defined as a decrease in total score ≥30% and ≥1 point from baseline and a decrease in rectal bleeding subscore ≥1 or rectal bleeding subscore of 0
or 1.
§Clinical remission is defined as stool frequency subscore ≤1 and not greater than baseline, rectal bleeding subscore of 0, and endoscopic subscore ≤1 without friability.
‖Steroid-free clinical remission is defined as clinical remission at Week 52 and corticosteroid-free for ≥90 days immediately preceding Week 52 (among patients achieving remission in induction).
¶Endoscopic improvement was defined as Mayo endoscopic subscore of 0 or 1 without friability. Endoscopic results are based on a full colonoscopy or flexible sigmoidoscopy, depending on the extent of disease at study entry.
**Histo-endoscopic Mucosal Improvement was defined as an endoscopic subscore ≤1 without friability and Geboes score ≤3.1 (indicating neutrophil infiltration in <5% of crypts, no crypt destruction, and no erosions, ulcerations, or granulation tissue). Endoscopic results are based on a full colonoscopy of flexible sigmoidoscopy, depending on the extent of disease at study entry, and histology results are based on a set of 2 biopsies.

U-ACHIEVE and U-ACTIVATE
In the LTE analysis, the data is segmented as follows:
- RINVOQ 15 mg arm: Patients who achieved clinical remission (remitters) on RINVOQ 15 mg at Week 52 of Maintenance Trial and received continuous RINVOQ 15 mg in LTE period (n=101)
- RINVOQ 30 mg arm: All patients on RINVOQ 30 mg who completed Week 52 of Maintenance Trial (remitters and non-remitters) and received continuous RINVOQ 30 mg in the LTE period (n=175)
OLE LIMITATIONS: In an OLE, there is a potential for enrichment of the long-term data in the remaining patient populations since patients who are unable to tolerate or do not respond to the drug often drop out.
AO DISCLOSURE: In an as observed (AO) analysis missing visit data was excluded from calculations for that visit, which may increase the percent of responders. All observed data was used regardless of premature discontinuation of study drug, or initiation of concomitant medications. The same patient may not have a response at each timepoint.
Recommended Maintenance Dosing:
A dose of 30 mg may be considered in patients with refractory, severe or extensive disease. Discontinue if therapeutic response is not achieved with the 30 mg dose.

U-ACHIEVE MAINTENANCE Study Design Intro:1
52-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 3 clinical study of 746 patients enrolled were randomized to the maintenance study. The primary efficacy analysis population was the first randomized 451 patients. Patients were randomized to receive RINVOQ 15 mg, 30 mg or placebo once daily for up to 52 weeks. The primary endpoint was clinical remission per modified Mayo Score at Week 52.
Endoscopic results are based on a full colonoscopy or flexible sigmoidoscopy, depending on the extent of disease at study entry.

U-ACTIVATE Long-Term Extension2
BACKGROUND
Objective: To evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of RINVOQ after the 52-week Maintenance study. LTE interim analyses were performed at LTE Week 48 (approximately 2 years total from the beginning of Maintenance) with final efficacy to be assessed at LTE Week 288.
Patients in this efficacy analysis received continuous RINVOQ during the Maintenance study and through Week 48 of the LTE.
- 74% (339/458) of patients in the RINVOQ 15 mg and 30 mg arms completed the U-ACHIEVE Maintenance trial
- 96% (328/339) of the Maintenance completers entered into the U-ACTIVATE Open-Label Extension
The final database lock will occur when all patients have completed or terminated before Week 288 of the open-label LTE study.
- This will represent ~6.5 years of treatment with RINVOQ (Maintenance plus LTE)
ANALYSIS RULES
Analyses shown for efficacy patient groups:
Patients included in the analysis were required to complete the 52-week U-ACHIEVE Maintenance study and remain on their 15 mg or 30 mg dose for the duration of the 48 weeks.
Patients who were escalated during the 48 weeks were not included in the analysis.
