Surgery vs Biologics for Treating Stricturing CD--a RCT

Surgery Versus Biologics for Symptomatic Stricturing Crohn's Disease : an Open-label, Single-center, Randomized Controlled Trial

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 9 Jul 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The management of stricturing Crohn's disease (CD) remains challenging. Although surgical resection may be the final way to solve it, the efficacy of biologics for symptomatic CD associated strictures was acceptable. In clinical practice, the chioce of treatment is particularly difficult. Therefore, a clinical trial of biologics versus surgery is needed to assess which one is prefered.
