E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
a. Efficacy: the primary efficacy endpoint will be the percentage of patients in remission defined as CDAI < 150 at day 15 (after 14 days of study drug treatment) wich is maintained at Week 4.
b. Evaluation of safety of GED-0301, 14-day oral administration. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
- % of patients in remission at week 2,4 and at week 12
- % of patients attaining 70-point clinical response (defined as a decrease from baseline in CDAI score of 70 points or more) at week 4 and at week 12.
- % of patients attaining 100-point clinical response (defined as a decrease from baseline in CDAI score of 100 points or more) at week 4 and at week 12.
- % of steroid-dependent patients achieving steroid therapy discontinuation at week 12
- Change in the endoscopic index of severity for Crohn’s Disease (SES-CD).This analysis will be done in the patients who accept to perform ileocolonoscopy before treatment and at week 4 |

Patients with Crohn’s disease involving the stomach and/or the proximal small intestine, or patients with lesions confined to the transverse or left colon as assessed by standard clinical criteria. 4. Patients treated with biologics(e.g.:infliximab, adalimumab, or natalizumab), in the 90 days prior the enrolment. 5. Patients in treatment with a standard dose of immunomodulators (e.g.: azathioprine, mercaptopurine, methotrexate) maintained stably for less than 6 months (patients treated with a stable dose for at least 6 months are eligible).The standard doses, according to ECCO consensus document, are 2-2.5 mg/kg/day for azathioprine and 1-1.5 mg/kg/day for mercaptopurine. 6. Oral and/or systemic antibiotic treatment within 3 weeks before screening. 7. Presence of local complications (e.g. abscesses, strictures and fistulae), and/or extra-
intestinal manifestations (arthritis or arthralgia, iritis or uveitis, erythema nodosum,or phyoderma gangrenosum or aphthous stomatitis, fever >37.8°C) dysplasia and malignancies. 8.
