Background & Aims: The REACH study evaluated the safety and efficacy of infliximab in children with moderately to severely active Crohn's disease. Methods: Patients (n = 112) with a Pediatric Crohn's Disease Activity Index (PCDAI) score > 30 received infliximab 5 mg/kg at weeks 0, 2, and 6. Patients responding to treatment at week 10 were randomized to infliximab 5 mg/kg every 8 or 12 weeks through week 46. A concurrent immunomodulator was required. Clinical response (decrease from baseline in the PCDAI score 15 points; total score :530) and clinical remission (PCDAI score
