In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effects of fluconazole in patients who plan to start or are currently undergoing standard of care treatment and plan to dose-escalate an IL-23 therapy for their Crohn's disease. The main question it aims to assess is whether or not patient response to IL-23 therapies improve when simultaneously treated with fluconazole.
