    This biologic Ustekinumab was recently approved by the FDA for Crohn's - the stats on responders/remission are interesting to compare to Rem-L

    So here they chose 628 patients who had failed to respond to conventional treatment, of those 397 responded to Ustekinumab and of those say 400 who responded approx 50% of them were in remission at 44 weeks - so your total numbers for remission are 200/628 or well less than 30%.

    oh and if you're interested have a look at the side effects profiles of the current treatments - most of these are immunosuppressants meaning you're at risk of TB or sepsis at best at worst increasing risk of serious cancers
