Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Other	Increase in Milliseconds (ms) QT Wave	The increase in the number of milliseconds change-from-baseline to week 52 in QTcF (Fridericia's Correction Formula of QT wave interval) (based on cardiac safety report).	week 52
Primary	Number of Patients in Remission at Week 16	The number of patients who achieved a reduction of the total Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) score to less than 150 points.; Lower CDAI scores indicate a better outcome.	Week 16
Secondary	Response at Week 16	Reduction of the total Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) score by a minimum of 100 points Lower CDAI scores indicate a better outcome.	Week 16
Secondary	The Number of Weeks for Patients to Achieve Remission	[Date of first observed remission (CDAI less than 150) - date of first dose, or date of randomization if not dosed, plus 1] / 7 days. Subject who never experience remission during the study are censored at the time of their last CDAI assessment.	Baseline through week 52
Secondary	Number of Weeks the Patients Are in Remission	Duration of remission is defined as the number of weeks the subject is in remission (CDAI score < 150). It is calculated as the first date following remission at which CDAI is =150 minus the date of first remission, plus 1 day, divided by 7. Subjects who experienced remission and continued to be in remission at the time of their last CDAI assessment are censored at the date of their last CDAI assessment.	Baseline through week 52
Secondary	Number of Weeks to Achieve Response	[Date of first observed response (a reduction from baseline of = 100 in CDAI score) - Date of first dose or date of randomization if not dosed + 1] / 7 Days. Subjects who never experienced response during the study are censored at the date of their last CDAI assessment.	Baseline through week 52
Secondary	Number of Weeks the Patients Are in Response.	Duration of response is defined as the number of weeks the subject is in a state of response (a reduction from baseline of = 100 in CDAI score). It is calculated as the first date following response at which the reduction from baseline in CDAI is <100 minus the date of first response, plus 1 day, divided by 7. Subjects who experienced response and continued to be in response at the time of their last CDAI assessment are censored at the date of their last CDAI assessment.	Baseline through week 52
Secondary	Durable Remission Week 16 Through Week 52	When a subject is in remission with a maximum CDAI score of 149 at every visit from week 16 through and including week 52.	Week 16 through week 52
