FDA approves Lilly’s Omvoh® for Crohn’s disease

In the pivotal Phase 3 VIVID-1 trial, patients treated with Omvoh experienced significant improvement in clinical remission and endoscopic response at one year.

Among those who achieved clinical remission and endoscopic response at one year, nearly 90% of patients maintained clinical remission with two years of continuous Omvoh treatment in open-label extension.

Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) announced today that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Omvoh® (mirikizumab-mrkz) for the treatment of moderately to severely active Crohn’s disease in adults. Omvoh is now approved in the U.S. for two types of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), following its October 2023 approval as a first-in-class treatment for moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC) in adults.1

Omvoh works to reduce inflammation within the gastrointestinal tract by targeting a specific protein, interleukin-23p19 (IL-23p19), which is a key contributor to intestinal inflammation. Omvoh is the first biologic treatment in more than 15 years to have disclosed two-year Phase 3 efficacy data in Crohn’s disease at the time of approval.2
