Abstract

Secondary loss of response (LoR) often precludes further use of infliximab in children with Crohn s disease. Immunomodulators may reduce the incidence of LoR but their combination with infliximab presents safety concerns. We aimed to determine the long-term durability of infliximab response in paediatric Crohn s, effect of immunomodulators on LoR, and secondarily the effect of infliximab on growth.
