Abstract

The present disclosure provides methods for assessing mucosal healing in a patient with Crohn's Disease. The methods include detecting expression levels of analytes in a serum sample from a patient, and applying a mathematical algorithm to the expression levels, thereby producing a Mucosal Healing Index score for the patient. The present disclosure also provides kits that include two or more binding partners, each or which is capable of binding a different analyte measured in the disclosed mucosal healing assessment methods.
