Study name A study evaluating the efficacy and safety of etrasimod in the treatment of patients with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease (CULTIVATE)
Methods RCT, multicentre
Participants 225 adults 18 to 80 years old
Interventions IGa: etrasimod dose A taken by mouth, once daily
IGb: etrasimod dose B taken by mouth, once daily
CG: matching placebo taken by mouth, once daily
Outcomes Primary outcome measures:
  1. Proportion of participants who achieve endoscopic response [ Time Frame: Week 14 ] Endoscopic response is defined as ≥ 50% decrease from baseline in simple endoscopic score in Crohn's disease (SES‐CD).


Secondary outcome measures:
  1. Proportion of participants who achieve clinical remission worst daily Abdominal Pain With Loose/Watery Stool Frequency (APSF) scores [ Time Frame: Week 14 ] Clinical remission APSF is defined as unweighted average worst daily abdominal pain (AP) score ≤ 1 (using a 4‐point scale, i.e. 0 (none) to 3 (severe)) and unweighted average daily loose/watery (Bristol Stool Form Scale (BSFS) type 6 or 7) SF score ≤ 3.

  2. Number and severity of adverse events [ Time Frame: Up to Week 66 ]
