Patients who underwent an ileocolonic resection with ileocolonic anastomosis with a temporary ileostomy are also eligible if the ileocolonic resection was performed within eight months prior to the Screening visit, and the restoration of the faecal stream was performed within 3 and 40 days prior to the Screening visit., Patients having an increased risk for postoperative recurrence for any of the following reasons: a) Penetrating disease as reason for ileocolonic resection; b) Previous ileocolonic resection within ten years of index surgery; c)Two or more previous ileocolonic resections aside from the index ileocolonic resection; d) Active smoking (i.e. smoked at least 7 sigarets during the past month); e) Advanced therapy (including biological therapy and small molecules) within 3 months of index ileocolonic resection., Curative ileocolonic resection. All inflamed colon segments should have been removed. Strictureplasties in the small bowel not involving the anastomotic region are allowed., Patients previously failing at least three months of steroids and/or three months of immunosuppressive therapy, or showing intolerance or a real contraindication for any of these therapies., Patients able and willing to start and continue biological therapy, and this at the timepoint indicated through study randomization.
