Disease Population

Ulcerative colitis is most common in North America and Western Europe; however the prevalence is increasing in other regions. In North America, ulcerative colitis affects approximately 40 to 240 in 100,000 people. It is estimated that more than 750,000 North Americans are affected by this disorder. Ulcerative colitis is more common in whites and people of eastern and central European (Ashkenazi) Jewish descent than among people of other ethnic backgrounds[1].
In the U.S., 818,568 persons have ulcerative colitis. Of those patients, 34,216 have unmet medical needs[2].

About Study Complete
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that causes long-lasting inflammation and ulcers in the innermost lining of the colon and rectum.

Typically, UC occurs when there is a combination of inflammation and ulceration leading to symptoms of abdominal pain, diarrhea and rectal bleeding.

The treatment options for UC are medications and surgery. However, surgery is reserved for those with severe inflammation and life-threatening complications, as it usually involves removing the entire colon and the rectum. So far, there is no medication that can cure ulcerative colitis. Patients with ulcerative colitis will typically experience periods of relapse followed by periods of remission lasting months to years.
