 We assessed the clinical activity indices and the mucosal healing in patients treated by scheduled maintenance therapy with infliximab. Among 27 patients treated by infliximab for more than a 30 week-period, the medication was more efficacious in patients with inflammatory disease than in those with fistulous disease. Among 10 patients in whom possible healing of the colorectal lesions could be evaluated by radiography or colonoscopy, active mucosal lesions in seven patients had healed, while those in the three other patients remained unchanged. The former patients were older than the latter patients. In three patients whose ileum could be assessed, the ileal lesions remained unchanged. The therapeutic effects of infliximab as determined by clinical activity indices and by mucosal lesions were unable to be associated in 7 of 10 patients examined. These observations suggest that scheduled maintenance therapy with infliximab is effective on mucosal lesions, as well as on clinical activities, in patients with Crohn's disease. The grade of mucosal healing, however, is presumably independent of clinical activities.
