INGELHEIM, Germany, and NORTH CHICAGO, Ill., May 24, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Results were presented today from a proof-of-concept, Phase II, randomized, placebo-controlled study (NCT02031276) in Crohn's disease with investigational biologic, risankizumab (formerly BI 655066), a compound from Boehringer Ingelheim research and recently licensed by AbbVie (NYSE: ABBV). Risankizumab was shown to be more effective than placebo in patients with moderately-to-severely active Crohn's disease.1 These interim results are the first to be reported in this indication with risankizumab, which selectively blocks IL-23 through the specific targeting of the IL-23p19 subunit.1 After 12 weeks, 24% and 37% of patients achieved clinical remission (no symptoms or very mild symptoms of disease) with 200 mg and 600 mg risankizumab, respectively, compared with 15% of patients receiving placebo*1. Endoscopic remission (normalization of the lining of bowel as seen during an endoscopy) was achieved by 15% and 20% of patients receiving 200 mg and 600 mg risankizumab, respectively, compared with three percent of patients receiving placebo.1
