Corticosteroids With Vedolizumab in Crohn's Disease
Stopped early · Phase 4 · Has a placebo group
Conditions studied: Crohn's Disease
In brief
Use of co-induction with corticosteroid therapies may accelerate the remission rate when used with vedolizumab. Further, this may lead to higher rates of response and remission at week 10 than would be seen with vedolizumab monotherapy.
