Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a top-down treatment approach, prescribing infliximab and azathioprine at diagnose, yields better outcome in comparison to the usual step-up treatment approach, starting with prednison and azathioprine, in moderate-to-severe pediatric Crohn's disease (CD) patients.
