Data are shown as n (%) or median [range].

¹More than one possible option: L4 includes isolated upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract disease or upper GI tract disease combined with L1, L2 or L3.

²Active disease at enrollment was defined as presenting Harvey-Bradshaw index ≥ 8 or Crohn’s disease activity index ≥ 220 or fecal calprotectin > 200 mg/g or colonoscopy suggestive of inadequate control during the previous year (for Crohn’s disease patients) and partial Mayo score ≥ 5 (for ulcerative colitis patients). CD: Crohn’s disease; CDAI: Crohn’s disease activity index; HBI: Harvey-Bradshaw index; UC: Ulcerative colitis; UNK: Unknown; GI: Gastrointestinal.
