Risankizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody that inhibits the p19 subunit of IL-23 cytokine. Recently it has been approved for the treatment of patients with moderate-to-severe Crohn's disease (CD). We conducted a scoping review to summarize the available data on risankizumab and to define its positioning in the treatment algorithm of CD. Pubmed, Embase and Scopus databases were searched up to Oct 31, 2023 to identify studies reporting efficacy and safety data of risankizumab in patients with CD. Risankizumab is an effective and safe drug for the management of patients with moderate-to-severe CD. It could be used as first-line therapy in biologic-naive patients and in patients who have previously failed other biological therapies.
