Abstract

Background/Aims: Controlled studies in humans have shown the role of antibodies to tumor necrosis factor-alpha in the treatment of both fistulizing and inflammatory Crohn's disease. The aim of this study is to report the results of a multicenter clinical trial to evaluate efficacy of infliximab in Crohn's disease patients who are refractory to conservative drugs or fistulizing Crohn's disease.
