ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryPercentage of Participants With Endoscopic Response at Week 48Week 48
Endoscopic response defined as showing a reduction from baseline in simple endoscopic score for Crohn's disease (SES-CD) of greater than or equal to (\>=) 50 percent (%). SES-CD is a validated instrument reflecting an endoscopist global appraisal of mucosal lesions in Crohn's disease. SES-CD grades lesions by location (5 bowel segments: ileum, right colon, transverse colon, left colon, and rectum) using 4 endoscopic variables: ulcer size, extent of ulcerated surface, extent of affected surface, and presence/type of narrowing. Total SES-CD is sum of 4 variables for all 5 bowel segments. Scores range from 0-60 with higher scores indicating more severe disease. Randomized participants who stopped treatment before reaching Week 48 due to any reason, or participants without endoscopic data at Week 48 were analyzed as nonresponders.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Endoscopic Response at Week 48 (Premature Drop-outs Excluded)Week 48
Endoscopic response defined as showing a reduction from baseline in SES-CD (a validated instrument reflecting an endoscopist's global appraisal of mucosal lesions) score of \>=50%. SES-CD grades lesions by location (5 bowel segments: ileum, right colon, transverse colon, left colon, and rectum) using 4 endoscopic variables: ulcer size, extent of ulcerated surface, extent of affected surface, and presence/type of narrowing. Total SES-CD is calculated as sum of 4 variables for 5 bowel segments. Scores ranges 0-60. Higher scores indicates more severe disease. Randomized participants who stopped treatment before reaching Week 48 due to reasons other than lack/loss of efficacy were excluded from analysis.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Endoscopic Response at Week 48 (Last Observation Carried Forward [LOCF])Week 48 (LOCF)
Endoscopic response defined as a reduction from baseline in SES-CD score of \>= 50%. SES-CD is a validated instrument reflecting an endoscopist global appraisal of mucosal lesions in Crohn's disease. SES-CD grades lesions by location (5 bowel segments: ileum, right colon, transverse colon, left colon, and rectum) using 4 endoscopic variables: ulcer size, extent of ulcerated surface, extent of affected surface, and presence/type of narrowing. The total SES-CD was calculated as the sum of the 4 variables for the 5 bowel segments. Scores range from 0 to 60, with higher scores indicating more severe disease. LOCF: Participants who had a missing value at Week 48 or who stopped treatment before reaching Week 48 had their last non-missing value carried forward.
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Clinical Response at Weeks 16, 48, and Endpoint (Week 48 [LOCF])Weeks 16, 48, and Endpoint (Week 48 [LOCF])
Clinical response defined as a \>=100-point reduction from the baseline in Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) score, or a CDAI score of \<150. The CDAI score is used to quantify the symptoms of participants with Crohn's Disease. A decrease in CDAI over time indicates improvement in disease activity. In general, CDAI score ranges from 0 to approximately 600; higher score indicates higher disease activities. Participants with missing data were considered as non-responder. LOCF: Participants who had a missing value at Week 48 or who stopped treatment before reaching Week 48 had their last non-missing value carried forward. Endpoint is defined as the last available postbaseline result within the main analysis period (that is, first 48 weeks of the study).
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Clinical Remission at Weeks 16, 48, and Endpoint (Week 48 [LOCF])Weeks 16, 48, and Endpoint (Week 48 [LOCF])
Clinical Remission defined as a CDAI score of \<150 points. The CDAI score is used to quantify the symptoms of participants with Crohn's Disease. A decrease in CDAI over time indicates improvement in disease activity. In general, CDAI score ranges from 0 to approximately 600; higher score indicates higher disease activities. Participants with missing data were considered as non-remitter. LOCF: Participants who had a missing value at Week 48 or who stopped treatment before reaching Week 48 had their last non-missing value carried forward. Endpoint is defined as the last available postbaseline result within the main analysis period (that is, first 48 weeks of the study).
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Endoscopic Remission at Weeks 16, 48, and Endpoint (Week 48 [LOCF])Weeks 16, 48, and Endpoint (Week 48 [LOCF])
Percentage of participants with Endoscopic remission defined as SES-CD score \<=2 at Weeks 16, 48, and Endpoint (Week 48 \[LOCF\]) were reported. SES-CD is a validated instrument reflecting an endoscopist global appraisal of mucosal lesions in Crohn's disease. SES-CD grades lesions by location (5 bowel segments: ileum, right colon, transverse colon, left colon, and rectum) using 4 endoscopic variables: ulcer size, extent of ulcerated surface, extent of affected surface, and presence/type of narrowing. Total SES-CD is sum of 4 variables for all 5 bowel segments. Scores range from 0-60 with higher scores indicating more severe disease. LOCF: Participants who had a missing value at Week 48 or who stopped treatment before reaching Week 48 had their last non-missing value carried forward. Endpoint is defined as the last available postbaseline result within the main analysis period (that is, first 48 weeks of the study).
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Mucosal Healing at Weeks 16, 48, and Endpoint (Week 48 [LOCF])Weeks 16, 48, and Endpoint (Week 48 [LOCF])
Mucosal healing is defined as the complete absence of mucosal ulcerations in any ileocolonic segment. SES-CD grades lesions by location (5 bowel segments: ileum, right colon, transverse colon, left colon, and rectum) using 4 endoscopic variables: ulcer size, extent of ulcerated surface, extent of affected surface, and presence/type of narrowing. Total SES-CD is sum of 4 variables for all 5 bowel segments. Scores range from 0-60 with higher scores indicating more severe disease. LOCF: Participants who had a missing value at Week 48 or who stopped treatment before reaching Week 48 had their last non-missing value carried forward. Endpoint is defined as the last available postbaseline result within the main analysis period (i.e. first 48 weeks of the study).
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Corticosteroid-free Clinical Remission at Week 48 and Endpoint (Week 48 [LOCF])Week 48 and Endpoint (Week 48 [LOCF])
Corticosteroid-free Clinical Remission at Week 48 and Endpoint (Week 48 \[LOCF\]) is defined as a CDAI score \<150 and not taking any corticosteroids for at least 30 days prior to Week 48 and Endpoint assessment. The CDAI score is used to quantify the symptoms of participants with Crohn's Disease. A decrease in CDAI over time indicates improvement in disease activity. In general, CDAI score ranges from 0 to approximately 600; higher score indicates higher disease activities. Participants with missing data were analyzed as non-remitter. LOCF: Participants who had a missing value at Week 48 or who stopped treatment before reaching Week 48 had their last non-missing value carried forward. Endpoint is defined as the last available postbaseline result within the main analysis period (that is, first 48 weeks of the study).
SecondaryPercentage of Participants With Corticosteroid-free Endoscopic Response at Weeks 16, 48, and Endpoint (Week 48 [LOCF])Weeks 16, 48, and Endpoint (Week 48 [LOCF])
Corticosteroid-free endoscopic response defined as a reduction from baseline in SES-CD score of \>=50% and not taking any corticosteroids for at least 30 days prior to Weeks 16, 48 and endpoint (Week 48 \[LOCF\]). SES-CD grades lesions by location (5 bowel segments: ileum, right colon, transverse colon, left colon, and rectum) using 4 endoscopic variables: ulcer size, extent of ulcerated surface, extent of affected surface, and presence/type of narrowing. Total score is sum of 4 variables. Scores range 0-60. Higher scores means severe disease. Participants with missing data were analyzed as No SES-CD Improvement. LOCF: Participants who had a missing value at Week 48 or who stopped treatment before reaching Week 48 had their last non-missing value carried forward. Endpoint defined as last available postbaseline result within main analysis period (i.e., first 48 weeks).
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Serum C-reactive Protein (CRP)Baseline, Weeks 16, 48 and Endpoint (Week 48 [LOCF]
Change from baseline in serum CRP were reported. LOCF: Participants who had a missing value at Week 48 or who stopped treatment before reaching Week 48 had their last non-missing value carried forward. Endpoint is defined as the last available postbaseline result within the main analysis period (that is, first 48 weeks of the study).
