Summary
Brief summary
This will be a multicentre, randomised, double-blind, double-dummy, parallel group
comparative study in patients with mild or moderate, active ulcerative colitis. The study
will compare budesonide-MMX™ 6 mg and budesonide-MMX™ 9 mg tablets to placebo and to
Entocort® 3 x 3 mg capsules, in four parallel groups of patients over an 8 week treatment
period.

After the screening visit, patients will enter a washout period of 2 days, then they will be
randomised to the following four treatment groups: budesonide-MMX™ tablets (6 mg),
budesonide-MMX™ tablets (9 mg), Entocort® capsules (3 x 3 mg) and placebo (tablets and
capsules), all administered once a day after breakfast. Hence, each patient will receive, in
the morning after breakfast, either one budesonide-MMX™ 6 mg or budesonide MMX™ 9 mg tablet
and 3 placebo Entocort® matching capsules, or three Entocort® 3 mg capsules and one placebo
budesonide-MMX™ matching tablet, or one placebo budesonide-MMX™ matching tablet and three
placebo Entocort® matching capsules.
