First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether mirikizumab, an injected drug that blocks IL-23, can reduce inflammatory strictures (narrowed areas) in the small bowel caused by Crohn's disease. About 60 adults with at least one stricture will receive the drug and be monitored with MRI and symptom scores. The goal is to see if the strictures shrink and symptoms improve.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

mirikizumab (Omvoh)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could show that mirikizumab helps shrink inflammatory strictures in Crohn's disease, potentially reducing the need for surgery.

What could go wrong

This is a small, early-phase, open-label study with no placebo group, so results may be less reliable. It is not designed to prove a cure, and not all patients may respond.
