A Phase 1 interventional study of Alpha-0261 in Ulcerative Colitis (UC), sponsored by The First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University. Not yet recruiting at 1 site in China. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 75 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-08-04.
Sponsored by The First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University · Phase 1, Interventional, and Treatment
The purpose of this protocol is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Alpha-0261 in participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis. The primary hypothesis is that Alpha-0261 is safe, and the secondary hypothesis is that Alpha-0261 is effective, as assessed by the proportion of participants achieving clinical remission per the complete modified Mayo score at Week 10.
1,853 studies on the registry are indexed under Colitis, Ulcerative; 472 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 10 is below the median of 70 across 1,236 interventional studies indexed under Colitis, Ulcerative.

Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.
Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.
A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.
Read whether the line is about a condition or about medicines, and which medicines and doses it means.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.
Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.
Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.
Hepatitis C is a virus that infects the liver. An HCV antibody test can stay positive after an infection has cleared (and is occasionally positive without one); an HCV RNA test shows whether the virus is there now.
After treatment, hepatitis C counts as cured when HCV RNA is still undetectable 12 weeks or more after the treatment ended. Studies often accept people cured this way.
The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.
Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.
Corticosteroids (steroids)
Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.

Immunosuppression
A weakened immune system. It can come from an illness, such as HIV or some blood cancers, or from medicines that turn the immune system down, for example after an organ transplant or for an autoimmune disease; steroids at higher doses count.

Start is estimated for Aug 2026; primary completion for Jan 2027, 5 months later.
Of 83 phase 1 interventional studies under Colitis, Ulcerative, half reached primary completion within 13 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 8 and three quarters within 26. This study's planned 5 months is below that.
