Crohn Disease Clinical Trial
Official title:
Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blind, Active Controlled Trial Comparing REMICADE� (Infliximab) and REMICADE Plus Azathioprine to Azathioprine in the Treatment of Patients With Crohn's Disease Naive to Both Immunomodulators and Biologic Therapy
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of three different treatments for patients with Crohns disease who have not responded to previous treatment with a group of drugs commonly used to treat Crohn's Disease (5-ASA) and corticosteroids. Patients will receive either infliximab (a drug used to treat autoimmune diseases) or azathioprine (an immunosuppressant or drug used to suppress the immune system) or a combination of both for up to 34 weeks. This research study will involve approximately 500 patients. The main study involves up to 34 weeks (approximately 8 months). A study extension of an additional 20 weeks (approximately 5 months) is optional for patients who successfully complete the main study. A country-specific study extension of open label infliximab treatment for an additional 1 year is optional for patients who successfully complete the main study extension.

Other | Clinical Remission | Clinical remission is defined as a CDAI < 150 | Week 52 of Open Label Extension | No |
Primary | Corticosteriod-free Clinical Remission | Corticosteroid-free clinical remission is defined as a Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) < 150 in subjects who have not received any dose of systemic corticosteroids (prednisone or equivalent) for >= 3 weeks and have not received budesonide at a dose > 6mg/day for >= 3 weeks. The total CDAI score ranges from 0 - 600. The lower the CDAI score, the better (i.e., 0 is better and 600 is worse). | Week 26 | No |
Secondary | Mucosal Healing | Complete absence of mucosal ulcerations in the colon and terminal ileum as assessed by video endoscopy | Week 26 | No |
Secondary | Corticosteroid-free Clinical Remission | Corticosteroid-free clinical remission is defined as a Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) < 150 who have not received any dose of systemic corticosteroids (prednisone or equivalent) for >= 3 weeks and have not received budesonide at a dose > 6mg/day for >= 3 weeks | Week 50 | No |
Secondary | Clinical Remission Over Time | Clinical remission is defined as a CDAI < 150, compared to baseline (Week 0) | Weeks 26 and 50 (Remission was also measured at Weeks 2, 6, 10, 18, 34 and 42) | No |
Secondary | Clinical Response Over Time | Clinical response is defined as >= 100 point decrease in CDAI, compared to baseline (Week 0). | Weeks 26 and 50 (Response was also measured at Weeks 2, 6, 10, 18, 34 and 42) | No |
Secondary | Quality of Life | Quality of life as measured by the Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ). The IBDQ is a 32-item questionnaire and the total IBDQ score can range from 32 (very poor) to 224 (perfect). | Weeks 26 and 50 (Quality of Life was also assessed at Weeks 0, 2, 6, 10, 18, 34 and 42) | No |
Secondary | Average Corticosteroid Use | Average daily dose of systemic corticosteroid concomitant medications(prednisone or equivalent) | Weeks 26 and 50 (Corticosteroid use was also measured at Weeks 0, 2, 6, 10, 18, 34 and 42) | No |
