A Real-World Prospective Cohort Study of Patients With Newly Diagnosed Crohn's Disease Treated by a Multidisciplinary Team: 1-Year Outcomes.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Real-world data on outcomes of patients with newly diagnosed Crohn's disease (ndCD) is limited. We aimed to assess the achievement of corticosteroid-free clinical remission (CS-free CR) and other therapeutic targets 1 year after diagnosis in a cohort of patients with ndCD treated by a multidisciplinary team (MDT).

Methods

A prospective observational cohort study was conducted on consecutive treatment-naïve adults with ndCD. Patients received management at the treating physician's discretion, along with a tailored nutritional plan provided by an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)-oriented dietitian. Patients were guided and educated by an IBD nurse, with flexible communication access to the IBD team. Therapeutic targets were assessed at 1 year. Multivariable logistic
