Efficacy of Ustekinumab Optimization by 2 Initial Intravenous Doses in Adult Patients With Severe Crohn’s Disease

Although increasing studies have reported that dose escalation can improve treatment response to ustekinumab in patients with Crohn's disease (CD), their strategies mainly focus on maintenance regimen. Evidence of ustekinumab dose escalation in induction regimen, particularly in severe CD, remains limited. This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of intravenous ustekinumab with 2 initial doses in patients with severely active CD.
