Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Percentage of Patients With a Clinical Response (CDAI Decrease of ≥70 Compared With Baseline) at Week 4 [ Time Frame: Week 4 ]

    The Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) is a validated instrument to measure disease severity in Crohn's Disease (CD). The CDAI score is a sum of the 8 factors (number of liquid stools, abdominal pain, general well-being, extra-intestinal complications, antidiarrheal drugs, abdominal mass, hematocrit and body weight) after adjustment with a weighting factor. Higher CDAI scores indicating more active disease.

    The CDAI decrease at Week 4 was assessed as the decrease relative to baseline measurement, patients with a decrease ≥70 were responders.

    Percentage=least squares means per treatment group back transformed using inverse logit function. Missing data were imputed according to non-responder imputation (NRI) and last observation carried forward (LOCF).



Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Percentage of Patients With a Clinical Response (CDAI Decrease of ≥70 Compared With Baseline) at Week 24 [ Time Frame: Week 24 ]

    The CDAI is a validated instrument to measure disease severity in CD. The CDAI score is a sum of the 8 factors (number of liquid stools, abdominal pain, general well-being, extra-intestinal complications, antidiarrheal drugs, abdominal mass, hematocrit and body weight) after adjustment with a weighting factor. Higher CDAI scores indicating more active disease.

    The CDAI decrease at Week 24 was assessed as the decrease relative to baseline measurement, patients with a decrease ≥70 were responders.

    Percentage=least squares means per treatment group back transformed using inverse logit function. Missing data were imputed according to NRI and LOCF.


  2. Percentage of Patients in Clinical Remission (CDAI <150) at Week 24 [ Time Frame: at Week 24 ]

    The CDAI is a validated instrument to measure disease severity in CD. The CDAI score is a sum of the 8 factors (number of liquid stools, abdominal pain, general well-being, extra-intestinal complications, antidiarrheal drugs, abdominal mass, hematocrit and body weight) after adjustment with a weighting factor. Higher CDAI scores indicating more active disease.

    Patients with CDAI <150 at Week 24 were considered as clinical remission cases. Percentage=least squares means per treatment group back transformed using inverse logit function. Missing data were imputed according to NRI and LOCF.


  3. Percentage of Patients With Adverse Events (AEs), Serious AEs (SAEs), and AEs of Special Interest (AESIs) [ Time Frame: From first administration of trial medication until 10 weeks after last administration, up to a maximum of 56 weeks. ]
    Analysis of AEs focused on treatment-emergent AEs (TEAEs). For the period 1 'Baseline - Week 24', TEAEs were defined as AEs that started or worsened on or after first dose of trial medication and prior to date of the Week 24 visit or within 10 weeks (70 days, inclusive) after last dose of trial medication for patients who discontinued treatment before Week 24. For the period 2 'Week 24 - Week 46', TEAEs were defined as AEs that started or worsened on Week 24 visit and prior to or on Week 56 visit or within 10 weeks (70 days, inclusive) after last dose of trial medication for patients discontinuing treatment prior to Week 46. TEAEs and SAEs (including investigator-assessed trial medication-related TEAEs) and AESIs are reported. The following were considered an AESI: hepatic injury, anaphylactic reactions, serious infection and hypersensitivity reactions.

  4. Percentage of Patients With Infections [ Time Frame: From first administration of trial medication until 10 weeks after last administration, up to a maximum of 56 weeks. ]
    The percentage of patients with TEAEs for infections are reported. For the period 1 'Baseline - Week 24', TEAEs were defined as AEs that started or worsened on or after first dose of trial medication and prior to date of the Week 24 visit or within 10 weeks (70 days, inclusive) after last dose of trial medication for patients who discontinued treatment before Week 24. For the period 2 'Week 24 - Week 46', TEAEs were defined as AEs that started or worsened on Week 24 visit and prior to or on Week 56 visit or within 10 weeks (70 days, inclusive) after last dose of trial medication for patients discontinuing treatment prior to Week 46.

  5. Percentage of Patients With Serious Infections [ Time Frame: From first administration of trial medication until 10 weeks after last administration, up to a maximum of 56 weeks. ]
    The percentage of patients with TEAEs for serious infections are reported. For the period 1 'Baseline - Week 24', TEAEs were defined as AEs that started or worsened on or after first dose of trial medication and prior to date of the Week 24 visit or within 10 weeks (70 days, inclusive) after last dose of trial medication for patients who discontinued treatment before Week 24. For the period 2 'Week 24 - Week 46', TEAEs were defined as AEs that started or worsened on Week 24 visit and prior to or on Week 56 visit or within 10 weeks (70 days, inclusive) after last dose of trial medication for patients discontinuing treatment prior to Week 46.

  6. Percentage of Patients Who Experienced Hypersensitivity Reactions [ Time Frame: From first administration of trial medication until 10 weeks after last administration, up to a maximum of 56 weeks. ]
    The percentage of patients with TEAEs for hypersensitivity reactions is reported. For the period 1 'Baseline - Week 24', TEAEs were defined as AEs that started or worsened on or after first dose of trial medication and prior to date of the Week 24 visit or within 10 weeks (70 days, inclusive) after last dose of trial medication for patients who discontinued treatment before Week 24. For the period 2 'Week 24 - Week 46', TEAEs were defined as AEs that started or worsened on Week 24 visit and prior to or on Week 56 visit or within 10 weeks (70 days, inclusive) after last dose of trial medication for patients discontinuing treatment prior to Week 46.

  7. Percentage of Patients Who Experienced Drug Induced Liver Injury (DILI) [ Time Frame: From first administration of trial medication until 10 weeks after last administration, up to a maximum of 56 weeks. ]
    The percentage of patients with TEAEs for DILIs is reported. For the period 1 'Baseline - Week 24', TEAEs were defined as AEs that started or worsened on or after first dose of trial medication and prior to date of the Week 24 visit or within 10 weeks (70 days, inclusive) after last dose of trial medication for patients who discontinued treatment before Week 24. For the period 2 'Week 24 - Week 46', TEAEs were defined as AEs that started or worsened on Week 24 visit and prior to or on Week 56 visit or within 10 weeks (70 days, inclusive) after last dose of trial medication for patients discontinuing treatment prior to Week 46.

  8. Percentage of Patients With Injection Site Reactions [ Time Frame: From first administration of trial medication until 10 weeks after last administration, up to a maximum of 56 weeks. ]
    The percentage of patients with TEAEs for injection site reactions is reported. For the period 1 'Baseline - Week 24', TEAEs were defined as AEs that started or worsened on or after first dose of trial medication and prior to date of the Week 24 visit or within 10 weeks (70 days, inclusive) after last dose of trial medication for patients who discontinued treatment before Week 24. For the period 2 'Week 24 - Week 46', TEAEs were defined as AEs that started or worsened on Week 24 visit and prior to or on Week 56 visit or within 10 weeks (70 days, inclusive) after last dose of trial medication for patients discontinuing treatment prior to Week 46.
