    Methodology

    Multicenter randomized placebo-controlled trial of modified-release phosphatidylcholine LT-02 at three doses in mesalazine-refractory ulcerative colitis

    Key Findings

    Remission rates were higher with LT-02 than placebo, but the primary endpoint of change in disease activity did not reach significance for all doses

    Conclusions

    LT-02 shows promise in mesalazine-refractory ulcerative colitis but confirmatory trials are needed

    Limitations

    Mixed endpoint results; later phase III development did not confirm efficacy

    Supplements Studied

    Remission rates were higher with LT-02 than placebo, but the primary endpoint of change in disease activity did not reach significance for all doses
