Sunscape 1_UC_EFC18325_Jawitz_PRO00119361 - Clinical Trial
What is the Purpose of this Study?
This study has three smaller parts called Sub Studies. In Sub Study 1, people receive a medicine called duvakitug. In Sub Study 2, people are placed by chance into one of three groups to receive duvakitug or a placebo. In Sub Study 3, people are placed by chance into one of two dose groups to receive duvakitug. The whole study lasts about 35 weeks and includes about 15 visits. During the visits, you will have heart tests, blood tests, an endoscopy with a biopsy, and questionnaires. When you join the study, you will be put into either Sub Study 1 or Sub Study 2. You will take the study medicine every two weeks for 12 weeks. After you finish Sub Study 1 or Sub Study 2, you may be asked to join Sub Study 3 to take duvakitug for another 12 weeks, or you may be asked to join another study called SUNSCAPE 2.
