- Patient must have had CD for at least 3 months from the time of initial diagnosis.
The diagnosis of CD must have been confirmed by endoscopic and histological evidence.

- Patients must have active Crohn's disease as defined by a Crohns Disease Activity
Index (CDAI) score between >220 at screening and baseline.

immunomodulators (including 6-mercaptopurine and azathioprine and methotrexate) or
anti-TNF therapy at present or some point in the course of their disease. Lack of
response is defined by failure to reduce the CDAI score by at least 70 points.

- The following medications will be allowed: mesalamine and prednisone (stable dose for
at least 2 weeks prior to enrollment).

- Subjects on anti TNF therapy will require a minimum of 4 weeks washout period prior
to screening.
