Table 2.

Response and remission rates at the end of treatment in patients with Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis.

Outcome Crohn’s diseasea (n = 38) Ulcerative colitisb (n = 47) All (n = 85)
Response % (95% CIc) 65.8 (49.8–78.9) 55.3 (41.2–68.6) 60.0
Remission % (95% CIc) 47.4 (32.5–62.7) 48.9 (35.3–62.8) 48.2

Patients who terminated the study before Week 30 were considered to be non-responders/non-remitters.

a

Clinical response was defined as a decrease of >70 points from the baseline Crohn’s Disease Activity Index (CDAI) score; clinical remission was defined as a CDAI score of 150 or less11.

b

Clinical response was defined as a ≥3 point decrease from the baseline partial Clinical Activity Index (pCAI) score and an absolute sub-score for bleeding not greater than 1 point; clinical remission was defined as a total pCAI score of 2 points or lower12,13.
