Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI)-70 Response Rate at Week 8 in Participants Who Received Placebo, PF-04236921 10 mg and PF-04236921 50 mgBaseline and Week 8

CDAI-70 response was defined as a decrease in CDAI score of 70 or greater from baseline. The proportions of participants with CDAI-70 response at Week 8 were compared between placebo and PF-04236921 10 mg/50 mg. CDAI is used to quantify the symptoms of patients with Crohn's Disease. CDAI evaluates 8 Crohn's disease-related variables during a 1-week assessment period, yielding a composite score greater than or equal to (\>=) 0 and without an upper limit. Many clinical trials use the endpoint for response as a 70 or greater point decrease in CDAI and clinical remission is often defined as a CDAI score below 150. The Outcome included a Generalized linear mixed model analyses which incorporated longitudinal data for each subject, and the same model is used for estimate (least squares mean) and statistical analysis (mean difference).

The CDAI-70 Response Rate at Week 8 in Participants Who Received Placebo and PF-04236921 200 mgBaseline and Week 8

CDAI-70 response was defined as a decrease in CDAI score of 70 or greater from baseline. The proportions of participants with CDAI-70 response at Week 8 were compared between placebo and PF-04236921 200 mg. CDAI is used to quantify the symptoms of patients with Crohn's Disease. CDAI evaluates 8 Crohn's disease-related variables during a 1-week assessment period, yielding a composite score \>=0 and without an upper limit. Many clinical trials use the endpoint for response as a 70 or greater point decrease in CDAI and clinical remission is often defined as a CDAI score below 150. The Outcome included a Generalized linear mixed model analyses which incorporated longitudinal data for each subject, and the same model is used for estimate (least squares mean) and statistical analysis (mean difference). Since the inputs in the model included different Analysis Population than in Outcome Measure 1, that will yield different estimates for placebo for the two different models.

Percentages of Participants With Confirmed Positive Anti-drug Antibodies (ADAs)At baseline (Day 1) and at Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32 and 40

The percentage of participants with confirmed positive ADA was summarized for each treatment arm. ADA positive was defined as ADA titer defined as ADA titer (ie, the reciprocal of the highest dilution that gives a value equivalent to the cut point of the assay) \>= 4.32.

Percentages of Participants With Confirmed Positive Neutralizing Antibodies (NAbs)At baseline (Day 1) and at Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32 and 40

The percentage of participants with confirmed positive NAbs was summarized for each treatment arm. Only ADA positive samples were analyzed for Nab. A multi-tiered approach was utilized to detect NAbs. NAb serum samples were screened at tier one, and those found presumptively NAb positive was further tested with the confirmatory assay (tier two).

Number of Participants Who Withdrew From the Study Due to Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (AEs)Induction period: from Week 0 (Day 1) through Week 12; follow-up period: from Week 12 (or discontinuation from the induction period) through last subject visit (up to 28 weeks after completion of or discontinuation from the 12-week induction period)

An AE was any untoward medical occurrence without regard to causality in a participant who received study drug. Treatment-emergent were events between first dose of treatment and up to 28 days after last dose that were absent before treatment or that worsened relative to pretreatment state.
