Project description:Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is an idiopathic and chronic disorder that includes ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD). Both diseases show an uncontrolled intestinal immune response that generates tissue inflammation. Dendritic cells (DCs) are antigen-presenting cells that play a key role in tolerance maintenance in the gastrointestinal mucosa. Although it has been reported that DC recruitment by the intestinal mucosa is more prominent in IBD patients, the specific mechanisms governing this migration are currently unknown. In this study, the expression of several homing markers and the migratory profile of circulating DC subsets towards intestinal chemo-attractants were evaluated and the effect of biological drugs with different mechanisms of action, such as anti-TNFα or anti-integrin α4β7 (vedolizumab), on this mechanism in healthy controls (HCs) and IBD patients was also assessed. Our results revealed that type 2 conventional DCs (cDC2) express differential homing marker profiles in UC and CD patients compared to HCs. Indeed, integrin β7 was differentially modulated by vedolizumab in CD and UC. Additionally, although CCL2 displayed a chemo-attractant effect over cDC2, while biological therapies did not modulate the expression of the homing markers, we paradoxically found that anti-TNF-treated cDC2 increased their migratory capacity towards CCL2 in HCs and IBD. Our results therefore suggest a key role for cDC2 migration towards the intestinal mucosa in IBD, something that could be explored in order to develop novel diagnostic biomarkers or to unravel new immunomodulatory targets in IBD.

Project description:Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic, recurrent gastrointestinal disorder with elusive etiology. Interleukin-12 (IL-12) and IL-23 have emerged as key proinflammatory mediators/cytokines in IBD pathogenesis. Ustekinumab (UST), targeting IL-12 and IL-23, has demonstrated promising efficacy and safety in the treatment of IBD. Recently, UST has become increasingly favored as a potential first-line treatment option. This review delineates UST's mechanism of action, its clinical applications in IBD, including the response rates, strategies for dose optimization for case of partial or lost response, and potential adverse events. This review aims to offer a comprehensive understanding of UST's role as a therapeutic option in IBD management.

Project description:The goal of therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) is to optimize anti-TNF (tumor necrosis factor) biologic treatment in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Although commercial assays are readily available for both ustekinumab and vedolizumab, the use of TDM with these newer biologic medications is at its infancy. The clinical utility of TDM with non-anti-TNF mechanisms of action is not clear. This review summarizes the latest available data on the pharmacokinetics of newer biologic and oral small molecules and highlights the threshold concentrations that have been associated with improved outcomes in IBD patients.

Project description:BackgroundReal-world data on clinical outcomes of ustekinumab in ulcerative colitis are lacking.ObjectiveTo assess short- and long-term clinical outcomes of ustekinumab in ulcerative colitis.MethodsAdult ulcerative colitis patients without previous colectomy starting ustekinumab treatment up until 11 December 2020 were identified through the Swedish Inflammatory Bowel Disease Register (SWIBREG). Prospectively recorded data were extracted from the SWIBREG. The primary outcome was persistence to ustekinumab 16 weeks after treatment initiation. Secondary outcomes included drug persistence beyond week 16, clinical remission (defined as a patient-reported Mayo rectal bleeding subscore = 0 and stool frequency subscore ≤1), biochemical remission (defined as faecal-calprotectin <250 μg/g) and changes in health-related quality of life (HRQoL), as measured by the Short Health Scale (SHS). Logistic regression was used to identify potential predictors of ustekinumab persistence at 16 weeks.ResultsOf the 133 patients with ulcerative colitis, only three were naïve to biologics and tofacitinib. The persistence rates of ustekinumab were 115/133 (86%) at 16 weeks and 89/133 (67%) at last follow-up, that is, after a median follow-up of 32 (interquartile range 19-56) weeks. The clinical remission rates were 17% at 16 weeks and 32% at the last follow-up. The corresponding rates for biochemical remission were 14% and 23%. The median faecal-calprotectin concentration decreased from 740 μg/g at baseline to 98 μg/g at the last follow-up (p < 0.01, n = 37). Improvement was seen in each dimension of the SHS between baseline and last follow-up (p < 0.01 for each dimension, n = 46). Male sex was associated with ustekinumab persistence at 16 weeks (adjusted odds ratio = 4.00, 95% confidence interval: 1.35-11.83).ConclusionIn this nationwide real-world cohort of ulcerative colitis patients with prior drug failures, including other biologics and tofacitinib, ustekinumab was associated with high drug persistence rates and improvements in clinical, biochemical and HRQoL measures.

Project description:Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) are chronic and progressive inflammatory disorders of the gastrointestinal tract. In IBD, protein serological biomarkers could be relevant tools for assessing disease activity, performing early-stage diagnosis and managing the treatment. Using the interleukin-10 knockout (IL-10(-/-)) mouse, a model that develops a time-dependent IBD-like disorder that predominates in the colon; we performed longitudinal studies of circulating protein biomarkers in IBD. Circulating protein profiles in serum samples collected from 30-, 93-, to 135-day-old IL-10(-/-) mice were investigated using two-dimensional differential gel electrophoresis and MALDI-TOF/TOF tandem mass spectrometry. A total of 15 different proteins were identified and confirmed by ELISA and Western blot to be differentially accumulated in serum samples from mid- to late-stage IL-10(-/-) mice compared to early non-inflamed IL-10(-/-) mice. The use of another model of colitis and an extra-intestinal inflammation model validated this biomarker panel and demonstrated that comprised some global inflammatory markers, some intestinal inflammation-specific markers and some chronic intestinal inflammation markers. Statistical analyses using misclassification error rate charts validated the use of these identified proteins as powerful biomarkers of colitis. Unlike standard biomarker screening studies, our analyses identified a panel of proteins that allowed the definition of protein signatures that reflect colitis status.Biological significanceCrohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) are the most common inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) occurring in humans. The major current diagnosis tool is colonoscopy, which is invasive and could lead to false diagnosis. The emergence of serological biomarkers enables the use of new diagnosis tools such as protein signatures for IBD diagnosis/management. Using 2D-DIGE coupled to mass spectrometry, our longitudinal study in a mouse model of colitis identified a signature of protein biomarkers for specific stages of disease.

Project description:BackgroundUstekinumab is currently approved globally in Crohn's disease (CD) and psoriatic diseases. Recent phase 3 data demonstrate safety/efficacy in ulcerative colitis (UC). Crohn's disease and UC phase 3 programs had similar study designs, facilitating integrated safety analyses.MethodsData from 6 ustekinumab phase 2/3 CD and UC studies were pooled, and safety was evaluated through 1 year. Patients received 1 placebo or ustekinumab (generally 130 mg or ~6 mg/kg) intravenous induction, then subcutaneous (90 mg) maintenance every 8/12 weeks. Analyses incorporated all patients who received ≥1 ustekinumab dose. Safety outcomes are presented as percentages of patients (induction) and as number of patients with events per 100 patient-years of follow-up (through 1 year). For key safety events, 95% confidence intervals (CIs) are provided, as appropriate. Hazard ratios with 95% CIs from time-to-event analyses for serious adverse events and serious infections were also performed.ResultsThrough 1 year, 2574 patients received ustekinumab (1733 patient-years of follow-up). The number of patients with adverse events per 100 patient-years (placebo 165.99 [95% CI, 155.81-176.67] vs ustekinumab 118.32 [95% CI, 113.25-123.55]), serious AEs (27.50 [95% CI, 23.45-32.04] vs 21.23 [95% CI, 19.12-23.51]), infections (80.31 [95% CI, 73.28-87.84] vs 64.32 [95% CI, 60.60-68.21]), serious infections (5.53 [95% CI, 3.81-7.77] vs 5.02 [95% CI, 4.02-6.19]), and malignancies excluding nonmelanoma skin cancer (0.17 [95% CI, 0.00-0.93] vs 0.40 [95% CI, 0.16-0.83]) were similar between placebo and ustekinumab.ConclusionsThe safety profile of ustekinumab across the pooled inflammatory bowel disease population through 1 year was favorable and generally comparable to placebo. These data are consistent with the established safety profile of ustekinumab across indications.Clinicaltrials.gov numbersNCT00265122; NCT00771667; NCT01369329; NCT01369342; NCT01369355; NCT02407236.

Project description:Samples for microarray analysis were derived from terminal ileum and colonic tissues from probands with Crohn´s disease and Ulcerative Colitis and control patients, respectively. IBD tissue biopsies from non-inflamed regions 10 cm distant from pathological areas were selected. To minimize inter-individual differences in gene expression and to enrich for IBD-specific transcriptional events, 2.5 µg of total RNA from terminal ileum and colon transversum from four individuals of each patient and control group were used for pooling.

Project description:IntroductionIn inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), the number of eosinophils increases in the lamina propria of the intestinal tract, but their specific patho-mechanistic role remains unclear. Elevated blood eosinophil counts in active IBD suggest their potential as biomarkers for predicting response to biological therapies. This study evaluates blood eosinophil count trends and their predictive value for clinical response and endoscopic improvement in patients with IBD receiving ustekinumab or adalimumab induction therapy.MethodsParticipant-level data from phase 3 and 4 clinical trials (UNIFI, SEAVUE, VARSITY) evaluating ustekinumab and adalimumab for moderate-severe Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) were used. The primary outcome was clinical response, defined by reductions in disease activity scores. Eosinophil counts were compared between responders and non-responders at multiple time points using t-tests. Logistic regression assessed the odds of achieving a clinical response based on baseline eosinophil counts.ResultsAmong patients treated with ustekinumab for UC, responders had significantly higher baseline eosinophil counts compared to non-responders (0.21 × 109/L vs 0.18 × 109/L, P = .042). By week 8, responders showed a greater absolute (-0.07 × 109/L vs -0.01 × 109/L, P < .001) and percent decline (-33.33% vs -5.55%, P = .027) in eosinophil counts. In CD, ustekinumab responders also had higher baseline eosinophil counts and showed significant reductions by week 8. However, no significant differences in eosinophil counts were observed among CD patients treated with adalimumab or UC patients treated with vedolizumab.ConclusionEosinophil reduction was identified as a marker for early response to ustekinumab in both UC and CD, but not adalimumab. No difference was observed among UC patients treated with vedolizumab either. Targeting the IL-12/IL-23 pathway may be more effective in managing eosinophil-associated inflammation in IBD.
