Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage of Participants with Clinical Remission at Week 48Week 48Percentage of participants with clinical remission at Week 48 will be reported. Clinical remission is based on the Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI).
Percentage of Participants with Endoscopic Response at Week 48Week 48Percentage of participants with endoscopic response at Week 48 will be reported. Endoscopic response is based on change from baseline in the simple endoscopic score for Crohn's disease (SES-CD), as assessed by central endoscopy reading.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage of Participants with Endoscopic Remission at Week 48Week 48Percentage of participants with endoscopic remission at Week 48 will be reported. Endoscopic remission is based on the SES-CD, as assessed by central endoscopy reading.
Percentage of Participants with Corticosteroid-Free Clinical Remission at Week 48Week 48Percentage of participants with corticosteroid-free (60-day) clinical remission at Week 48 will be reported.
Secondary Comparison: Percentage of Participants with Clinical Remission at Week 48Week 48Percentage of participants with clinical remission at Week 48 will be reported. Clinical remission is based on the Crohn's Disease Activity Index (CDAI).
Secondary Comparison: Percentage of Participants with Endoscopic Response at Week 48Week 48Percentage of participants with endoscopic response at Week 48 will be reported. Endoscopic response is based on change from baseline in the SES-CD, as assessed by central endoscopy reading.
Percentage of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs)Up to Week 48An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant administered a pharmaceutical (investigational or non-investigational) product. An AE does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the intervention.
Percentage of Participants with Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)Up to Week 48A SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose: results in death; is life-threatening; requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity; is a congenital anomaly/birth defect; is a suspected transmission of any infectious agent via a medicinal product; is medically important.
Clinical Laboratory Parameters Over TimeUp to Week 48Clinical laboratory parameters over time will be reported.
Vital Sign Parameters Over TimeUp to Week 48Vital sign parameters over time will be reported.
Titers of Antibodies to GolimumabUp to Week 48Titers of antibodies to golimumab will be reported.
Serum Concentrations of Guselkumab Over TimeUp to Week 48Serum concentrations of guselkumab over time will be reported. Serum samples will be analyzed to determine concentrations of guselkumab using a validated, specific, and sensitive method.
Serum Concentrations of Golimumab Over TimeUp to Week 48Serum concentrations of golimumab over time will be reported. Serum samples will be analyzed to determine concentrations of golimumab using a validated, specific, and sensitive method.
Percentage of Participants with Antibodies to GuselkumabUp to Week 48Percentage of participants with antibodies to guselkumab will be reported.
Titers of Antibodies to GuselkumabUp to Week 48Titers of antibodies to guselkumab will be reported.
Percentage of Participants with Antibodies to GolimumabUp to Week 48Percentage of participants with antibodies to golimumab will be reported.
Percentage of Participants with Neutralizing Antibodies to Guselkumab.Up to Week 48Percentage of participants with neutralizing antibodies to guselkumab will be reported.
Percentage of Participants with Neutralizing Antibodies to GolimumabUp to Week 48Percentage of participants with neutralizing antibodies to golimumab will be reported.
Suicidal Ideation Assessment Using Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) ScoreUp to Week 48The C-SSRS scale consists of 28 items in 4 sections: suicide behavior, actual attempts, suicidal ideation, and intensity of ideation. Worsening of suicidal ideation is defined as an increase in severity of suicidal ideation from baseline.
Percentage of Participants with Patient-reported Outcomes (PRO)-2 Remission at Week 48Week 48Percentage of participants with PRO-2 remission at Week 48 will be reported. PRO-2 remission is based on the average daily abdominal pain (AP) and stool frequency (SF) scores.
