disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs
(DMARDs), including methotrexate, has been inadequate.

adult patients with severe, active and progressive disease not
previously treated with
methotrexate or other DMARDs.
In these patient populations, a reduction in the rate of the

contraindications for such
therapies.

treatment of fistulising, active Crohn’s disease, in adult patients
who have not responded
despite a full and adequate course of therapy with conventional
treatment (including antibiotics,
drainage and immunosuppressive therapy).

disease, in children and adolescents
aged 6 to 17 years, who have not responded to conventional therapy
