“Cimzia data at this year’s ACG meeting continue to demonstrate real-life significance to those with moderate to severe Crohn’s disease who have tried other therapies with no response or have never been treated with an anti-TNF,” said Cem Kayhan, MD, Medical Director at UCB.
“These data indicate Cimzia may be beneficial to these patient populations in many aspects, including rapid relief of symptoms, long-term remission maintenance and quality of life improvements.”
Individuals with moderate to severe Crohn’s disease can experience painful symptoms that could interfere with daily life such as joint pain, abdominal cramps and high fevers. Cimzia is indicated for reducing the signs and symptoms of Crohn’s disease and maintaining clinical response in adult patients with moderately to severely active disease who have had an inadequate response to conventional therapy.
Posters highlighting results from multiple trials demonstrate the utility of Cimzia in the treatment of Crohn’s disease patients:
