Inflammatory Bowel Disease Treatment And Response To Therapy

Overview

About this study

The purpose of this study is to Identify baseline and early treatment genetic, molecular, and cellular drivers of 4-month endoscopic response to anti-IL-23, anti-α4β7, or TNF-cycling among UC and CD patients with secondary loss of response or partial response to a prior anti-TNF.

Participation eligibility

Participant eligibility includes age, gender, type and stage of disease, and previous treatments or health concerns. Guidelines differ from study to study, and identify who can or cannot participate. There is no guarantee that every individual who qualifies and wants to participate in a trial will be enrolled. Contact the study team to discuss study eligibility and potential participation.

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Provision of signed and dated informed consent form

  • Stated willingness to comply with all study procedures and availability for the duration of the study

  • Male or female, aged ≥ 18 years and ≤ 70 years

  • Participant has a confirmed diagnosis of UC or CD

  • Individuals for whom a provider is considering initiating an anti-IL-23 (risankizumab, mirikizumab, guselkumab), anti-a4b7 (vedolizumab), or a within-class anti-TNF biologic (adalimumab, infliximab, certolizumab) due to loss of response, or incomplete response of current medication

    • Loss of response – objective flare after initial response.

    • Incomplete response or partial response (or primary non responder, PNR ) – pharmacokinetic failure, pharmacodynamic failure.

    • Therapy complications – e.g. drug-induced lupus, infusion reactions, skin cancer, demyelinating disorders, etc.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Inability to consent

  • Ileostomy, history of IPAA

  • Inability to return for a 4-6 month standard of care endoscopy

  • Prior exposure to anti-IL-23 (risankizumab, mirikizumab, guselkumab) or anti-a4b7 (vedolizumab)

  • Current use of small molecules such as JAK-inhibitors or S1P1 receptor modulators

  • Current use of anti-IL 23 p40 drugs (ustekinumab)

  • Reason for therapy change not due to incomplete response, PNR or secondary LOR, such as but not limited to:

    • Insurance

    • Patient choice

  • Current known infection with Clostridioides difficile

  • Female who is pregnant, breast-feeding or intends to become pregnant

  • Any disorder, which in the investigator’s opinion might jeopardize participant’s safety or compliance with the protocol

Note: Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria may apply.
