2. Subject must be a man or woman between 18 years and 75 (inclusive) years of age.
3. Has moderate to severe CD with a CDAI score between 220 and 450 (inclusive) and a histologic diagnosis of CD for at least 3 months before screening. The histological diagnosis should be confirmed locally from the screening colonoscopy if not previously documented at the site.
4. Has screening laboratory test results within the following parameters:
a. Hemoglobin =8 g/dL
b. WBC =2000 cells/µL
c. Neutrophils =1500 cells/µL
d. Creatinine =1.7 mg/dL
e. Serum AST or ALT =2 x upper limit of normal (ULN)

g. CPK =3 x ULN
h. LDH =3 x ULN
5. SES-CD score =6 or =4 for ileal-only disease.
6. Subject may be either biologic naïve or biologic experienced. Subjects who have had prior experience with anti-TNF, anti-integrin, or anti-MAdCAM-1 treatment would be eligible if they were primary nonresponders, secondary nonresponders, intolerant or allergic to anti-TNF agents (e.g., infliximab), , or stopped such treatment for other reasons. Subjects who have had prior experience with anti-IL-12/23 (e.g., ustekinumab) or anti-IL-23 agents would be eligible if they were responders, secondary nonresponders, or stopped the treatment due to intolerance or reasons unrelated to efficacy. Primary nonresponders to anti-IL-12/23 or anti-23 are excluded (see Exclusion #6).

a. Women not of childbearing potential:
Postmenopausal is defined as being >45 years of age with amenorrhea for at least 18 months) or >45 years of age with amenorrhea for at least 12 months and a confirmatory serum follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) level >40 IU/L with luteinizing hormone (LH) level >40 IU/L in women
not receiving hormone replacement therapy; permanently sterilized (eg, hysterectomy, bilateral salpingectomy, bilateral oophorectomy); or otherwise be incapable of pregnancy. Note: tubal ligation is not considered permanent sterilization.
b. Women of childbearing potential:
1) Must have a negative serum ß-human chorionic gonadotropin (ß-hCG) at screening and a negative urine pregnancy test at Week 0 prior to dosing
2) Must practice a highly effective method of birth control (<1% failure rate) consistent with local regulations regarding the use of birth control methods for subjects participating in clinical studies such as established use (>3 months) of oral, injected or implanted highly effective hormonal methods of contraception; placement of an intrauterine device or intrauterine system; male partner sterilization (the vasectomized partner should be the sole partner for that subject); true abstinence (when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject).
3) Must agree to use highly effective methods of birth control throughout the study for 3 months after receiving the last dose of study drug (placebo or PRV-6527).
4) Must agree not to donate eggs (ova, oocytes) for the purposes of assisted reproduction during the study and for 3 months after receiving the last dose of study drug.
8. Male subjects must meet the following criterion: A man who is sexually active with
