This is the 2nd revision of the guideline on the development of new medicinal products for the treatment of Crohn’s Disease.

The main aim of this 2nd revision was to update the guidance on the design of studies in adult patients, especially on potential claims, primary and secondary endpoints, and comparators. It is also intended to give further guidance with regards the possibility for extrapolation from adults, or the need to generate separate data in children and to give recommendations regarding the exploration of PK/PD in paediatric drug development.
