+Arms and interventions

ArmTypeInterventionsDescription
Guselkumab TreatmentExperimentalDrug: Guselkumab (GUS)Participants will receive Guselkumab intravenously (IV) every 4 weeks during the induction phase, followed by subcutaneous (SC) administration of Guselkumab every 4 weeks from Week 12 through Week 44 as maintenance therapy.
  • Guselkumab (GUS) (Drug), also known as TREMFYA: Guselkumab will be administered intravenously or by subcutaneous injection.

+Outcome measures

Primary outcomes

  • Percentage of Participants Achieving Clinical Remission At Week 48 [At Week 48]: Clinical remission is defined as less than (<) 150-point reduction in Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI) score. The CDAI is a validated multi-item measure of severity of illness derived as a weighted sum of 8 different Crohn's disease-related variables. The CDAI score was assessed by collecting information on 8 different Crohn's disease-related variables: extra-intestinal manifestations, abdominal mass, weight, hematocrit, total number of liquid stools, abdominal pain/cramping, use of antidiarrheal drug(s), and/or opiates, and general well-being. In general, CDAI score ranges from 0 to approximately 600; higher score indicates higher disease activities.

Secondary outcomes

  • Percentage of Participants Achieving Clinical Response At Weeks 12, 24 and 48 [At Weeks 12, 24 and 48]: Clinical response is defined as greater than or equal to (>=) 100-point reduction from baseline in CDAI score. The CDAI is a validated multi-item measure of severity of illness derived as a weighted sum of 8 different Crohn's disease-related variables. The CDAI score was assessed by collecting information on 8 different Crohn's disease-related variables: extra-intestinal manifestations, abdominal mass, weight, hematocrit, total number of liquid stools, abdominal pain/cramping, use of antidiarrheal drug(s), and/or opiates, and general well-being. In general, CDAI score ranges from 0 to approximately 600; higher score indicates higher disease activities.
  • Percentage of Participants Achieving Clinical Remission At Weeks 12 and 24 [At Weeks 12 and 24]: Clinical remission is defined as < 150-point reduction in CDAI score. The CDAI is a validated multi-item measure of severity of illness derived as a weighted sum of 8 different Crohn's disease-related variables. The CDAI score was assessed by collecting information on 8 different Crohn's disease-related variables: extra-intestinal manifestations, abdominal mass, weight, hematocrit, total number of liquid stools, abdominal pain/cramping, use of antidiarrheal drug(s), and/or opiates, and general well-being. In general, CDAI score ranges from 0 to approximately 600; higher score indicates higher disease activities.
  • Percentage of Participants Achieving Endoscopic Response [At Weeks 24 and 48]: Endoscopic response is defined as >= 50% improvement from baseline in Simple Endoscopic Score for Crohn's Disease (SES-CD) score. The SES-CD is based on the evaluation of 4 variables: (ulcers - scored according to size, proportion of the surface covered by ulcers according to extent, proportion of affected surface with any other lesions according to extent, stenosis \[single or multiple, and whether the colonoscopy could pass through the narrow lumen\]), each considered in 5 segments of the bowel (the ileum, ascending colon, transverse colon, descending colon, and rectum). An overall total SES-CD score is derived from the sum of all the component scores and can range from 0 to 60. Higher scores indicating severe disease.
  • Percentage of Participants Achieving Endoscopic Remission [At Weeks 24 and 48]: Endoscopic remission is defined as SES-CD less than or equal to (<=) 2 in any individual component. The SES-CD is based on the evaluation of 4 variables: (ulcers - scored according to size, proportion of the surface covered by ulcers according to extent, proportion of affected surface with any other lesions according to extent, stenosis \[single or multiple, and whether the colonoscopy could pass through the narrow lumen\]), each considered in 5 segments of the bowel (the ileum, ascending colon, transverse colon, descending colon, and rectum). An overall total SES-CD score is derived from the sum of all the component scores and can range from 0 to 60. Higher scores indicating severe disease.
  • Baseline Characteristics of Participants With Endoscopic Remission: Age [Baseline]: Baseline characteristics of participants (age) with endoscopic remission will be reported.
  • Baseline Characteristics of Participants With Endoscopic Remission: Sex [Baseline]: Baseline characteristics of participants (sex) with endoscopic remission will be reported.
  • Baseline Characteristics of Participants With Endoscopic Remission: Height [Baseline]: Baseline characteristics of participants (height) with endoscopic remission will be reported.
  • Baseline Characteristics of Participants With Endoscopic Remission: Weight [Baseline]: Baseline characteristics of participants (weight) with endoscopic remission will be reported.
  • Baseline Characteristics of Participants With Endoscopic Remission: History of Advanced Treatment, Concomitant Medications [Baseline]: Baseline characteristics of participants (history of advanced treatment, concomitant medications) with endoscopic remission will be reported.
  • Baseline Characteristics of Participants With Endoscopic Remission: Comorbidities [Baseline]: Baseline characteristics of participants (comorbidities) with endoscopic remission will be reported.
  • Baseline Characteristics of Participants With Endoscopic Remission: Surgeries and Procedures [Baseline]: Baseline characteristics of participants (surgeries and procedures such as apheresis) with endoscopic remission will be reported.
