Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The influence of adalimumab therapy on the red blood cell levels of the active thiopurine metabolites (6-TGN and 6-MMPR) in Crohn's disease patients treated with stable azathioprine, 6-mercaptopurine or 6-thioguanine monotherapy.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. The efficacy of concurrent treatment with the thiopurines azathioprine, 6-mercaptopurein or 6-thioguanine and adalimumab in Crohn's disease patients; 2. The safety during concurrent use of the thiopurines azathioprine, 6-mercaptopurine or 6-thioguanine and adalimumab in Crohn's disease patients.
