STATIC: Stopping Aminosalicylate Therapy in Inactive Crohn's Disease
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to assess whether withdrawal of aminosalicylate (5-ASA) is non-inferior to continuation of 5-ASA therapy in Crohn's disease (CD) subjects in remission.

Phase 4 |
Detailed Description
Aminosalicylate (5-ASA) agents have proven effective for inducing and maintaining remission in mild to moderate ulcerative colitis (UC) and thus are commonly used as first-line agents for patients with Crohn's disease (CD) in remission. However, there is uncertainty regarding their effectiveness for CD.
In this open-label, randomized study, participants with CD in remission will be allocated to either continue their 5-ASA therapy or withdraw their 5-ASA. The purpose is to investigate if withdrawal of 5-ASA therapy is not unacceptably less effective than continuing on 5-ASA in maintaining CD remission over a 24 month period.
