A recent survey of 103 American gastroenterologists suggests that Stelara (ustekinumab) has gained in popularity as a treatment for Crohn's disease (CD), with significant gains projected for the rest of the year.

The report, authored by market intelligence firm Spherix Global Insights, provides some indication of prescribing patterns in the management of the disease, a chronic and painful condition which affects millions.

The survey found that nearly 60% of respondents are current Stelara prescribers, a figure anticipated to increase to 77% in the next six months.
