According to the results reported on ClinicalTrials.gov, this trial (NCT01393626) enrolled 279 people with Crohn's disease — a condition causing ongoing inflammation in the digestive tract. Participants were divided into four groups: 91 received a placebo (a dummy treatment with no active ingredient), 86 received tofacitinib at 5 mg twice daily, 86 received tofacitinib at 10 mg twice daily, and 16 received tofacitinib at 15 mg twice daily. The trial ran for 8 weeks and used a scoring system called the CDAI (Crohn's Disease Activity Index), which combines eight different measures of disease — such as bowel habits, pain, and general wellbeing — into a single number ranging from 0 to around 600, where a higher number means more severe disease. The main thing being measured was how many people in each group reached a CDAI score below 150 by week 8, which was defined in this trial as being in "remission" (very low disease activity). The 15 mg group was closed early due to low numbers, so formal results for that group were only reported for the CDAI score measure. The reported data shows that at week 8, approximately 36.7% of placebo participants, 43.5% of the 5 mg tofacitinib group, and 43.0% of the 10 mg tofacitinib group had a CDAI score below 150. For secondary measures, the trial also tracked how many people had a meaningful drop in their CDAI score — either a fall of at least 70 points or at least 100 points from where they started. By week 8, a drop of at least 70 points was reported in 62.2% of the placebo group, 76.5% of the 5 mg group, and 74.4% of the 10 mg group. A drop of at least 100 points by week 8 was reported in 54.4% of the placebo group, 70.6% of the 5 mg group, and 68.6% of the 10 mg group. The average CDAI scores at week 8 were reported as approximately 195 for the placebo group, 163 for the 5 mg group, 159 for the 10 mg group, and 172 for the 15 mg group (though that last figure should be interpreted with caution given the very small group size).

  • You have been diagnosed with Crohn's disease for at least 6 months before the screening visit
  • Your Crohn's disease is currently moderately to severely active, affecting the small intestine, large intestine, or both, as measured by a standard scoring system called the CDAI (confirm with trial site)

Who may not be able to join

Each point below is a reason the trial team may not be able to accept someone. It is not a list of requirements to meet.

  • You have been diagnosed with a different type of bowel disease, such as ulcerative colitis or indeterminate colitis, or have symptoms that suggest you may have ulcerative colitis
  • You have Crohn's disease but have never received any treatment for it before
  • You have taken certain immune-suppressing medications called azathioprine, 6-mercaptopurine, or methotrexate within the past 2 weeks
  • You have received a type of treatment called anti-TNFα therapy (a specific kind of medication that targets inflammation) within the past 8 weeks
  • You have received interferon therapy within the past 8 weeks
  • You have taken certain other immune-suppressing medicines (cyclosporine, mycophenolate, or tacrolimus) within the past 4 weeks

Other options

Expanded access pathways

This trial is not enrolling. Other access pathways exist in general: in Australia, the TGA Special Access Scheme allows access to unapproved therapeutic goods for individual patients. Whether it applies to any treatment studied here is a question for your doctor — nothing on this page says it does.
