About

This is an open-label, single-arm Phase Ib exploratory study, divided into Cohort 1: moderate to severe active ulcerative colitis, and Cohort 2: moderate to severe active Crohn's disease. Each cohort is divided into two phases. The first phase mainly explores the safety and tolerability of three dose groups of TQH3906 (12mg, 24mg, and 32mg). Based on the findings of the first phase, the second phase of the study will be conducted to select 1-2 dose groups for preliminary efficacy confirmation in ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. The subjects will take TQH3906 capsules orally for 8 weeks to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetic (PK) characteristics of TQH3906 capsules in subjects with moderate to severe active ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease. The study will include a screening period of up to 4 weeks, an 8-week treatment period, and a 4-week follow-up period after treatment.

Active moderate to severe UC or CD. .
Subjects must have failed at least one of the following drug treatments for UC or CD or be intolerant: oral aminosalicylates, oral corticosteroids, immunosuppressants, biologics, etc.
If subjects are using the following drugs for UC or CD at the time of screening, their treatment should be stabilized with oral aminosalicylates for at least 3 weeks before the first dose of the trial medication, or stabilized with oral systemic corticosteroids for at least 2 weeks before the first dose of the trial medication, and maintain a stable dose during the trial period.
Subjects (including partners) are willing to voluntarily take appropriate and effective contraceptive measures from the time of screening until 3 months after the last administration of the study medication.
Before the trial, understand in detail the nature, significance, potential benefits, possible inconveniences, and potential risks of the trial, understand the research procedures, and voluntarily sign the informed consent form.

Exclusion criteria

Pregnant or breastfeeding women.
Subjects diagnosed with indeterminate colitis, radiation colitis, or ischemic colitis.
Have severe complications such as local stenosis, intestinal obstruction, intestinal perforation, lower gastrointestinal bleeding, intestinal cancer or tendency towards cancer, toxic megacolon; rectal colon polyps and anal diseases, etc., as assessed by the investigator, may affect the subject's efficacy and safety assessment.
Subjects currently have a stoma, ileal pouch-anal anastomosis, fistula, and according to the physician's judgment, may require surgery or drug intervention within 12 weeks of entering the study, or may require ileostomy or colostomy.
Subjects have had a large segment of the small intestine resected (>100cm) or have been diagnosed with short bowel syndrome, or subjects require total parenteral nutrition.
Subjects have a recorded positive test for Clostridium difficile toxin (C. difficile) in stool or positive polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test. If the result is positive, subjects may be re-screened after appropriate treatment and re-tested no earlier than 7 days after the end of treatment.
Abnormal serum virology during the screening period: a) Active hepatitis, or positive for Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) and positive for hepatitis B virus (HBV)-DNA, or positive for Hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb) and positive for HBV-DNA, or positive for hepatitis B virus (HCV) antibodies and positive for HCV-RNA; b) Positive for HIV antibodies during the screening period, or history of HIV infection; c) Positive for Treponema pallidum antibodies and positive for non-treponemal serologic tests (RPR or TRUST) during the screening period.
History of active tuberculosis during the screening period or latent tuberculosis infection (defined as enzyme-linked immunospot assay (T-SPOT) positive without clinical manifestations). (Note: Patients with latent tuberculosis infection may be re-screened after starting preventive treatment for one month according to the guidelines. To continue participating in the study, patients must agree to complete the preventive treatment plan during the study period, but rifampin treatment should be avoided.)

Subjects with any major illness or unstable clinical condition (such as kidney, liver, blood, gastrointestinal, endocrine, lung, mental, neurological, immune, or local active infection/infectious diseases), as determined by the investigator, are not suitable for participating in this study.
