New hope for Crohn's: duvakitug enters final phase 3 trial
NCT ID NCT07184944
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This phase 3 study tests whether duvakitug can help people with moderate-to-severe Crohn's disease maintain remission. About 751 participants who responded to prior treatment will receive either duvakitug or a placebo injection for up to 40 weeks, with an option to continue in an open-label extension for up to 5 years. The study measures symptom control and bowel healing.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- duvakitug (a drug given as an injection under the skin)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, duvakitug could offer a new maintenance treatment option to help people with moderate-to-severe Crohn's disease achieve and sustain remission.
- What could go wrong
- This is a phase 3 trial, but it builds on earlier studies. The drug may not work better than placebo, and side effects are possible. Long-term safety and efficacy are still being evaluated.
