Impact of Concomitant 5-Aminosalicylic Acid Therapy on Vedolizumab Efficacy and Safety in Inflammatory Bowel Disease: Post Hoc Analyses of Clinical Trial Data.

ABSTRACT:

Background and aims

The benefit of continuing 5-aminosalicylic acid [5-ASA] treatment when escalating to advanced therapies in patients with inflammatory bowel disease [IBD] is unclear. Vedolizumab is a gut-selective monoclonal anti-α4β7-integrin antibody used to treat moderate to severe IBD. Clinical trial data were analysed post hoc to assess the impact of 5-ASA co-treatment on vedolizumab efficacy and safety in patients with IBD.

Methods

Data were analysed from patients aged 18-80 years with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis [UC]/Crohn's disease [CD] receiving intravenous [IV]/subcutaneous [SC] vedolizumab. Efficacy data were from four studies [GEMINI 1 and 2 and VISIBLE 1 and 2]; safety data were from seven studies [GEMINI 1‒3 and long-term, VISIBLE 1, 2, and open-label extension]. The impact of 5-ASA co-treatment on clinical and endoscopic outcomes at Weeks 6 and 52 was assessed using multivariate analysis (adjusted odds ratios [aORs] with 95% confidence intervals [CIs]).

Results

There were no significant differences in UC clinical remission [Mayo score ≤2, no subscore >1] rates with vs without 5-ASA at Week 6 [20.7% vs 20.4%, respectively; aOR 0.77, 95% CI 0.43-1.38] or at Week 52 [45.1% vs 40.6%; aOR 1.14, 0.70-1.86], and in CD clinical remission [CD activity index score ≤150] rates at Week 6 [41.4% vs 35.1%; 1.26, 0.86-1.85] or at Week 52 [49.6% vs 37.8%; 1.35, 0.91-1.99]. The incidence of enteric and all infections in vedolizumab IV/SC-treated patients was low with and without 5-ASA.

Conclusion

Continuation of concomitant oral 5-ASA after starting vedolizumab had no significant impact on clinical and endoscopic outcomes.

Project description:Background and aimsExtraintestinal manifestations [EIMs] such as arthritis/arthralgia are common in inflammatory bowel disease. We performed post hoc analyses of data from the GEMINI studies to evaluate the effect of vedolizumab, a gut-selective anti-trafficking agent, on arthritis/arthralgia.MethodsSustained resolution of baseline arthritis/arthralgia, worsening of baseline arthritis/arthralgia, the occurrence of new arthritis/arthralgia, and the composite of new/worsening arthritis/arthralgia were evaluated. Cox modelling was used for time-to-event analysis. The influence of corticosteroid-tapering was also investigated.ResultsIn Crohn's disease [CD] patients, vedolizumab was significantly less likely than placebo to be associated with new/worsening arthritis/arthralgia (hazard ratio [HR], 0.63; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.44-0.89). Similar incidences of sustained resolution of arthritis/arthralgia occurred with vedolizumab and placebo. In CD patients on corticosteroids at baseline, a decrease in corticosteroid dose increased the risk of new/worsening arthritis/arthralgia (odds ratio [OR], 7.49; 95% CI, 3.50-15.97) regardless of treatment; and in those achieving corticosteroid-free status, arthritis/arthralgia was less likely with vedolizumab than with placebo [HR, 0.14; 95% CI, 0.05-0.35]. In ulcerative colitis [UC] patients, vedolizumab and placebo showed a similar incidence of new/worsening of arthritis/arthralgia. In UC patients on corticosteroid at baseline, arthritis/arthralgia was more likely in those achieving corticosteroid-free status than in those continuing corticosteroids (HR 2.63 [95% CI 1.13-6.11]); and in those achieving corticosteroid-free status, the incidence of arthritis/arthralgia was similar with vedolizumab and placebo.ConclusionsVedolizumab therapy was associated with a reduced likelihood of new/worsening arthritis/arthralgia in CD and no increased incidence of these events in UC.Studies included [clincialtrials.gov, number]GEMINI 1 [NCT00783718]; GEMINI 2 [NCT00783692]; GEMINI 3 [NCT01224171].

Project description:BackgroundVedolizumab (VDZ) is a well-established and important therapeutic option in the treatment of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). However, the significance of therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) with VDZ remains a contradictory field in daily clinical practice. Our study aims to clarify the predictive impact of VDZ drug levels in long-term clinical outcomes in a real-world cohort.MethodsPatients with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) from a tertiary IBD referral center at the University Hospital Augsburg, Germany, were enrolled in this single-center retrospective data analysis. Clinical and endoscopic data were collected at month 6, month 12, and at the last time of follow-up, and outcomes were correlated with VDZ levels at week 6.ResultsThis study included 95 patients, 68.4% (n = 65) with UC, 24.2% (n = 23) with CD, and 7.4% (n = 7) with indeterminate colitis (CI). Patients with a mean VDZ treatment time of 17.83 months ± 14.56 showed clinical response in 29.5% (n = 28) and clinical remission in 45.3% (n = 43) at the end of the study. Endoscopic response occurred in 20.0% (n = 19) and endoscopic remission in 29.5% (n = 28) at the end of the study. The sustained beneficial effect of VDZ was also reflected in a significant change in biomarker levels. VDZ trough level at week 6 was determined in 48.4% (n = 46) with a mean of 41.79 µg/mL ± 24.58. A significant association between VDZ level at week 6 and both short and long-term outcomes could not be demonstrated. However, numerically higher VDZ levels were seen in patients with endoscopic and clinical improvement at month 6 and at the time of last follow-up.ConclusionsThis study demonstrated efficacy and safety for VDZ in a real-world cohort. Although, for some parameters, a clear trend for higher VDZ levels at week 6 was seen, the efficacy of VDZ was not significantly correlated to VDZ level at week 6, which questions the predictive value of VDZ levels in the real world.

Project description:BackgroundMigraine is often comorbid with other disorders. People with migraine may be prescribed one or more concomitant medications. This post hoc analysis assessed the safety and efficacy of lasmiditan in Japanese people with migraine comorbidities or using concomitant medications.Patients and methodsThe MONONOFU study was a Phase 2, randomized, placebo-controlled, multicenter study of lasmiditan for acute migraine treatment in Japanese adults. Patients reported comorbidities (pre-existing or coexisting conditions) during screening. Concomitant medications (any drugs taken ±48 hours of the study drug) and treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were recorded in a paper diary. Study drug efficacy (pain freedom 2 hours after administration of study drug) was reported in an eDiary. Logistic regression models were used for subgroup analyses of safety (incidence of TEAEs) and efficacy (pain freedom at 2 hours post dose) of lasmiditan in relation to presence/absence of comorbidities, and safety in relation to concomitant medications.ResultsCommon comorbidities (occurring in ≥10% of any lasmiditan dose group) were seasonal allergies, allergic rhinitis, tension-type headache, cervicobrachial syndrome, dysmenorrhea, nasopharyngitis, musculoskeletal stiffness, chronic gastritis, constipation, and insomnia. There was no significant interaction of treatment with comorbidity for safety or efficacy. There was also no significant interaction between treatment and concomitant medication groups of special interest (acetaminophen/nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, triptans, antiemetics, central nervous system depressant medications, serotonergic medications, antiepileptics, antihypertensive medications, Chinese herbal medicines, and contraceptives) for incidence of TEAEs.ConclusionIn Japanese people with migraine, the safety of lasmiditan appeared to be independent of common comorbidities and concomitant medications; efficacy appeared to be independent of comorbid conditions.Clinical trials registrationNCT03962738 (ClinicalTrials.gov).
