Abstract Background There are limited data of long-term ustekinumab administered according to the doses recommended in the UNITI studies. The objective of this study was to assess the real-world, long-term effectiveness of ustekinumab in refractory Crohn’s disease (CD) (LONG-CROHNUSK Study). Methods Multicentre study of CD patients starting ustekinumab at the recommended dose based on weight ~6 mg/kg IV week 0, 90 mg SC week 8 and maintenance 90 mg SC every 8 or 12 weeks and with 1 year of follow-up. Values for Harvey-Bradshaw Index (HBI), endoscopic activity, C reactive protein (CRP) and faecal calprotectin (FC) were recorded at baseline and at weeks 26 and 52. Demographic and clinical data, previous treatments, adverse events (AEs), surgeries and hospitalisations were documented. Potential predictors of clinical and endoscopic remission were examined. Results Four hundred and seven patients were analysed (Table 1). For the maintenance dose, ustekinumab 90 mg was administered SC every 12, 8 and 4 weeks in 56 (14%), 318 (84.5%) and 7 (1.5%) patients, respectively. An interval reduction was applied for 118 patients (29%). Before 52 weeks, treatment discontinuation occurred in 71 patients (17%). At baseline, 295 (72%) had an HBI >4 points. Of these, 169 (57%) and 190 (64%) achieved clinical remission at weeks 26 and 52, respectively. FC levels returned to normal (<250 μg/g) in the 44% and 54% of the patients at weeks 26 and 52, respectively. CRP returned to normal (<3 mg/l) in 36% and 37% of the patients at weeks 26 and 52 respectively. HBI, FC, and CRP values over time are shown in Figure 1. Of the 159 patients with endoscopy at 52 weeks, 25 (16%) were in remission and 58 (36%) presented mild activity. Thirty-eight (9.3%) patients worsened extra-intestinal manifestations and 33 (8%) their perianal disease. AEs were recorded in 54 patients, 73 were hospitalised and 53 had surgery. An association was shown for fewer previous anti-TNF agents and ileal localisation with clinical remission, and for endoscopic severity at baseline with poor response. No factors correlated with endoscopic remission. Conclusion This is the first study to show the real-world long-term effectiveness, endoscopic improvement and safety of ustekinumab administered according to the recommended induction regimen in a cohort of highly refractory CD patients.

Abstract Background Vedolizumab (VDZ) is an effective treatment for Crohn’s disease (CD); however, inadequate and loss of response is common. Pivotal VDZ trials evaluated alternative dosing intervals, demonstrating numeric but not statistical superiority in efficacy as compared to FDA-approved dosing. The safety and effectiveness of FDA-approved and modified-dosing schedules in a real-world population are unknown. We aimed to evaluate clinical and endoscopic effectiveness & safety of standard and modified maintenance VDZ dosing in a real world cohort. Methods We retrospectively reviewed CD patients (pts) treated with >3 months VDZ, assessing Harvey Bradshaw Index (HBI), Simple Endoscopic Score for Crohn’s disease (SESCD), Short Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (SIBDQ), C-reactive protein (CRP), albumin and hematocrit prior to and following standard VDZ dosing, and prior to and following modified VDZ maintenance dosing. We measured duration on therapy and adverse events. Results We identified 226 eligible pts, mean age 41.5 years, 55.3% female, median disease duration 10 years, 88.9% with prior biologic exposure. Mean duration on VDZ was 28.3 months. Standard VDZ dosing: 61.5% of pts with active clinical disease and adequate follow up data achieved clinical response after 3–12 months; 41.0% had clinical remission. 51.9% of pts with active endoscopic disease and adequate follow up data achieved mucosal improvement; 42.3% had endoscopic remission; 26.0% had mucosal healing after 3–24 months. 50.0% of pts with elevated CRP and adequate follow up data normalized CRP after 3–12 months. Modified maintenance dosing: 72 non-remitters to standard VDZ dosing received modified VDZ maintenance dosing. 51.5% of pts with active clinical disease prior to starting dose modification and adequate follow up data achieved clinical response after 3–12 months of modified maintenance dosing; 42.4% had clinical remission. 22.2% of pts with SESCD ≥3 prior to starting dose modification achieved mucosal improvement after 3–24 months; 22.2% had mucosal healing. 26.7% of pts with SESCD ≥4 prior to starting modified dosing had endoscopic remission after 3–24 months. 50.0% of pts with elevated CRP and adequate follow up data normalized their CRP after 3–12 months. Safety: 82.7% of pts reported ≥1 adverse events, most commonly infection and worsening CD symptoms. Discussion Standard VDZ dosing resulted in clinical and endoscopic improvement in pts with moderate-severe CD, with prior exposure to multiple advanced therapies. For non-remitters to standard dosing, modified VDZ maintenance dosing improved clinical disease activity in ∼50% of pts and improved endoscopic disease activity in ∼20% of pts, suggesting that for pts who did not achieve remission with standard VDZ dosing, modified VDZ dosing may result in clinical and endoscopic improvement.
