Efficacy and safety of ustekinumab in Japanese patients with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease
This issue chosen by the Editor of Intestinal Research is the subpopulation analysis of phase 3 induction and maintenance studies about the efficacy and safety of the Ustekinumab for Crohn's disease (CD) performed by Toshifumi Hibi et al.

The phase 3 ustekinumab study about the moderate to severe CD was performed previously. It is comprised of two 8-week induction studies (UNITI-1 and UNITI-2) and 44-week randomized maintenance study (IM-UNITI). In this previous study, intravenous ustekinumab had an effect of remission induction and remission maintenance in patients who had a clinical response to induction therapy.

This issue reported the efficacy and safety of ustekinumab from the UNITI-1, UNITI-2, and IM-UNITI global studies in a Japanese subpopulation. For Japanese patients, ustekinumab was also effective as induction and maintenance treatments.
