Efficacy variables Proportion of patients in clinical response at week 0 with maintenance of clinical response*, as assessed by CDAI score every 4 weeks. *Loss of response is defined as both a CDAI score > 150 points and a minimum increase in CDAI of 70 points versus week 0 (week 26 of C87042 study) as confirmed at two consecutive visits. CDAI score and its change from Week 0, as measured every 4 weeks. Remission rate with remission defined as CDAI score≤150 every 4 weeks.
