About this trial
This is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, sequential cohort, ascending dose clinical trial to evaluate the safety and determine the efficacy of ascending doses of DB-3Q for the treatment of Perianal Fistulizing Crohn's Disease.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Combined Remission
Clinically confirmed 100% closure of all treated external openings, without development of new fistulas or abscesses and drainage \> 1 cm by the external openings, occurring spontaneously or after gentle finger compression; and on blinded central review of the MRI results, combined imaging endpoint of \>50% reduction in MAGNIFI-CD score and \>20% increase in perianal fistula fibrosis-to-fluid ratio.
Secondary outcomes
Combined Remission
Clinically confirmed 100% closure of all treated external openings, without development of new fistulas or abscesses and drainage \> 1 cm by the external openings, occurring spontaneously or after gentle finger compression; and on blinded central review of the MRI results, combined imaging endpoint of \>50% reduction in MAGNIFI-CD score and \>20% increase in perianal fistula fibrosis-to-fluid ratio.
