Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults who have completed the ADMIRE-CD II study without dropping out, aimed at those with complex perianal fistulas often associated with Crohn's Disease. Participants must join within 3 months of completing the previous study.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is not testing a new treatment but is focused on long-term follow-up to monitor side effects and symptom improvement in patients who were treated with Darvadstrocel for complex perianal fistula.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since no drug will be administered during this follow-up study, there are no direct side effects being tested. However, it will gather data on any long-term side effects from prior Darvadstrocel treatment.
