Inclusion criteria

The study was open to patients who had satisfactorily completed either study CNI-1493-CD-03 or CNI-1493-CD-05. Initial entry criteria were:

1. Patients who satisfactorily completed either study CNI-1493-CD-03 or CD-05 were eligible for participation in this study. Satisfactory completion was defined as follows:

The patient had responded to treatment, as defined by a decrease in CDAI of at least 70 points from original baseline (prior to treatment on study CD-02 or CD-04) at the last assessment for study CD-03 or CD-05, respectively. The decrease had to be attributable to semapimod treatment. Thus, patients whose response was attributable to other anti-Crohn's disease therapy are not to be included.
