Primary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Participants Achieving Endoscopic Remission at Month 12

    Time frame: Month 12

    Endoscopic remission was based on Simplified Endoscopic Score for Crohn's disease (SES-CD). The SES-CD assessed the size of mucosal ulcers, the ulcerated surface, the endoscopic extension and the presence of stenosis. SES-CD was based on endoscopic findings in 5 bowel segments (Ileum, right colon, transverse colon, left colon/sigmoid, and rectum). Each item was scored 0 to 3 per segment. The sum of the scores for each endoscopic variable ranged from 0 to 15, except for stenosis, where it varied between 0 and 11; total score ranged from 0 to 56. A lower score indicated better outcome. Endoscopic remission was defined as SES-CD ≤4 and at least two-point reduction versus Baseline of Study M13-740 and no subscore >1 in any individual variable.

  2. Percentage of Participants Achieving Clinical Remission at Month 12

    Time frame: Month 12

    Clinical remission was defined as average daily stool frequency ≤1.5 and not worse than Baseline and average daily abdominal pain score ≤1.0 and not worse than baseline in Study M13-740. Abdominal pain was assessed using the CDAI component "abdominal pain" rated as none [0], mild [1], moderate [2], and severe [3]) (cumulative total over the past 7 days) as per the CDAI to calculate abdominal pain score; total score range from 0 to 105.
