Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) Score Primary · Week 16

The Crohn's Disease Activity Index or CDAI is frequently used to assess disease severity. It gives a score ranging from 0 to over 600, based on a diary of symptoms kept by the patient for 7 days, and other measurements such as the patient's weight and haematocrit. A CDAI score of less than 150 is considered to be clinical remission.

Standard Subcutaenous Dose33.3± 47.14
Number of Patients With a Clinical Response Secondary · Week 16

A clinical response is defined as a drop in CDAI score by at least 100 points between week 0 and week 16, or a CDAI \< 150.

Change in Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) Score Secondary · Week 0, Week 16

The Crohn's Disease Activity Index or CDAI is frequently used to assess disease severity. It gives a score ranging from 0 to over 600, based on a diary of symptoms kept by the patient for 7 days, and other measurements such as the patient's weight and haematocrit. A CDAI score of less than 150 is considered to be clinical remission, a score greater than 220 is considered to define moderate to severe disease, and a score greater than 300 is considered to be severe disease.

IV Weight-Based Induction Dose158± 52.14
Standard Subcutaenous Dose251± 39.13
Number of Patients With Improvement in Health-related Quality of Life Secondary · Week 16

Defined as increase in SIBDQ by at least 9 points between week 0 and week 16. The Short Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (SIBDQ) is a 10-item health-related quality of life (HRQoL) questionnaire validated for use in CD patients. It assesses 4 domains: physical, social, emotional, and systemic and is scored on a 7-point Likert scale from 1 (severe problem) to 7 (no problems at all). The absolute score ranges from 10 (poor HRQOL) to 70 (optimum HRQOL).
