Stopping Aminosalicylate Therapy in Inactive Crohn's Disease (STATIC)

Stopping Aminosalicylate Therapy in Inactive Crohn's Disease (STATIC) Study: A Randomized, Open-label, Non-inferiority Trial

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.

Intervention / Treatment

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.
