Biomedicines 2024; 12:1839. [PMID: 39200303 PMCID: PMC11351332 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines12081839] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2024] [Revised: 08/02/2024] [Accepted: 08/09/2024] [Indexed: 09/02/2024] Open
Abstract
The inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) are systemic conditions that affect not only the gastrointestinal tract but also other parts of the body. The presence of extraintestinal manifestations can significantly impact the quality of life in IBD patients. Peripheral arthritis, episcleritis, and erythema nodosum are frequently associated with active intestinal inflammation and often improve with standard treatment targeting intestinal inflammation. In contrast, anterior uveitis, ankylosing spondylitis, and primary sclerosing cholangitis typically occur independently of disease flares. The incidence of these conditions in individuals with IBD can reach up to 50% of patients over the course of their lifetime. In addition, some advanced therapies utilized for the treatment of IBD potentially result in side effects that may resemble extraintestinal manifestations. This review provides a thorough analysis of the pathophysiology and treatment of extraintestinal manifestations associated with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis.

Vernia F, Monaco S, Latella G. IBD Patients with Primary or Secondary Nonresponse to Ustekinumab Benefit from Dose Escalation or Reinduction. J Clin Med 2024; 13:3993. [PMID: 39064033 PMCID: PMC11277193 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13143993] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2024] [Revised: 07/04/2024] [Accepted: 07/05/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Ustekinumab is a monoclonal antibody approved for the treatment of IBD. This drug has a well-established efficacy; however, patients may not respond or lose response. The availability of other biological therapies prompts the need for comparative data between different agents to suggest first- or second-line strategies. Aim of this review is to compare the effectiveness of ustekinumab to other biologics in Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, as well as report the available data on dose escalation and reinduction. A systematic electronic search of the English literature was performed up to November 2023, using Medline (PubMed), Web of Science, Scopus and the Cochrane Library. Conference proceedings were also screened. Out of 659 citations, 80 relevant articles were selected and included in the present narrative review. Head-to-head comparisons of different biological drugs are relatively scarce, mostly deriving from indirect comparison or retrospective studies. Overall available data indicate similar effectiveness in the treatment of IBD patients. Dose escalation and reinduction strategies are well documented, but the optimal treatment schedule is still to be defined. Response and remission rates vary in different studies, and a proportion of patients fail to achieve clinical and endoscopic outcomes. However, both approaches are effective and safe in nonresponders and secondary loss of response. IBD patients may benefit from dose escalation or reinduction. Both strategies prove effective in regaining response in a proportion of patients, avoiding unnecessary early switch. Head-to-head trials are still needed to determine the exact placement of this drug compared to other biologics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Extraintestinal manifestations are frequent in patients with inflammatory bowel disease and have a negative impact on quality of life. Currently, however, there is no evidence available to determine which drug should be recommended for these patients beyond anti-tumour necrosis factor [anti-TNF] treatment. We aimed to analyse the frequency of new extraintestinal manifestations and the behaviour of pre-existing extraintestinal manifestations during advanced therapy. METHODS We conducted a systematic search on November 15, 2022, and enrolled randomized controlled trials, cohorts, and case series reporting the occurrence and behaviour of extraintestinal manifestations in patients with inflammatory bowel disease receiving advanced therapy [non-TNF inhibitor biologicals and JAK inhibitors]. Proportions of new, recurring, worsening, and improving extraintestinal manifestations were calculated with 95% confidence intervals [CIs]. The risk of bias was assessed with the QUIPS tool. RESULTS Altogether, 61 studies comprising 13,806 patients reported eligible data on extraintestinal manifestations. The overall proportion of new extraintestinal manifestations was 8% [95% CI, 6-12%] during advanced therapy. There was no significant difference between the frequency of new extraintestinal manifestations during vedolizumab and ustekinumab therapy [11%, 95% CI, 8-15% vs 6%, 95% CI, 3-11%, p = 0.166]. The improvement of pre-existing manifestations was comparable between vedolizumab- and ustekinumab-treated patients, except for joint involvement [42%, 95% CI, 32-53% vs 54%, 95% CI, 42-65%, p = 0.029]. CONCLUSION The proportion of new extraintestinal manifestations was low during advanced therapy. Furthermore, the improvement of pre-existing manifestations was comparable between advanced therapies, except for pre-existing joint manifestations.

Abstract
In the recent years, there has been a growing recognition of the intricate relationship between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and extraintestinal manifestations (EIMs). EIMs of IBD include rheumatological, mucocutaneous, ocular, neurologic, pulmonary, cardiac, renal, hepatobiliary, and hematologic manifestations. Rheumatic manifestations are identified as the most common EIM, including axial and peripheral spondyloarthritis, arthralgia, sacroiliitis, enthesitis, and dactylitis. The convergence of the two distinct yet interconnected medical domains has spurred extensive research into the potential benefits of biological therapies as a treatment approach compared to the traditional method of treatment. This systematic review aims to assess the efficacy and overall impact of biological therapies in managing the rheumatic manifestations associated with IBD. Seventy-five articles from reputed journals published between January 1, 2013 and August 19, 2023 were reviewed. A set of eight papers were chosen for the focused study. The evaluation considered variables, such as rheumatic symptoms, in established IBD patients and compared the available biologic treatment and its benefits in alleviating rheumatic manifestations of IBD. By delving into the available literature and critically evaluating the relevant studies, this review shows insights into the role of biological therapies in the management of rheumatic symptoms in IBD. However, we must also address the limitations in implementing these since newer therapies are on the horizon. Hence, in-depth exploration and refinement of therapeutic strategies are needed to ultimately enhance patient care and quality of life for those affected by IBD. Infact, emerging artificial intelligence (AI) technologies are being used to improve the precision of diagnosis and enhance patient management.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Ustekinumab serves as an important alternative option for patients with various extraintestinal manifestations (EIMs), which leads to poor quality of life and heavy burden of care. Therefore, a comprehensive review summarizing the efficacy and safety of ustekinumab in patients with CDassociated EIMs is needed to provide reference for clinical medication and help with the appliance of precision medicine. AREAS COVERED In this review, we collected and summarized the efficacy and paradoxical side effects of ustekinumab in patients with CDassociated EIMs including musculoskeletal, cutaneous, ocular, and hepatobiliary manifestations. This literature review was performed using PubMed to identify and collect relevant studies published in English. EXPERT OPINION The effectiveness of ustekinumab on patients with CDassociated EIMs is mainly reflected in musculoskeletal and cutaneous manifestations compared to ocular or hepatobiliary manifestations. Relevant data from large scale cohort studies and prospective randomized trials are needed to further demonstrate the efficacy and safety of ustekinumab in patients with multiple EIMs.

Abstract
Spondyloarthritis and inflammatory bowel diseases are chronic immune disorders of the joints and the gut that often coexist in the same patient, increasing the burden of each disorder, worsening patients' quality of life, and influencing therapeutic strategies. Genetic predisposition, environmental triggers, microbiome features, immune cell trafficking, and soluble factors such as cytokines contribute to the pathogenesis of both articular and intestinal inflammation. Most of the molecular targeted biological therapies developed over the last two decades were based on evidence that specific cytokines may be involved in these immune diseases. Despite pro-inflammatory cytokine pathways sharing the pathogenesis of both articular and gut diseases (i.e., tumor necrosis factor and interleukin-23), several other cytokines (i.e., interleukin-17) may be differently involved in the tissue damage process, depending on the specific disease and the organ involved in inflammation, making difficult the identification of a therapeutic plan that is efficacious for both inflammatory manifestations. In this narrative review, we comprehensively summarize the current knowledge on cytokine involvement in spondyloarthritis and inflammatory bowel diseases, underlining similarities and differences among their pathogenetic pathways; finally, we provide an overview of current and potential future treatment strategies to simultaneously target both articular and gut immune disorders.

Abstract
Pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) is a rare chronic skin disease characterised by painful skin ulcers. There are no treatment guidelines for PG, but systemic treatments including biologics are often used. Recently, adalimumab (ADA), a fully human monoclonal antibody against tumour necrosis factor, was approved for refractory PG treatment in Japan. Herein, we report a case of rheumatoid arthritis with refractory PG 2 months after orthopaedic surgery of the foot during treatment with low-dose etanercept and methotrexate. Although adding a moderate dose of glucocorticoid did not improve her PG, the patient showed a remarkable response after switching from etanercept to ADA in a higher dose than that used to treat rheumatoid arthritis. This higher dose of ADA may be effective for the treatment of refractory PG after the failure of other tumour necrosis factor inhibitors.

Abstract
It is difficult to manage UC patients with tumor and extraintestinal manifestations (EIMs). We present this case of acute severe UC patient with peripheral arthritis and orbital tumor could be successfully managed by the concomitant use of two biologics (Dual targeted therapy, DTT) including vedolizumab (VDZ) and ustekinumab (UST). VDZ is approved for the treatment of patients with moderate-to-severe UC, but might have limited efficacy in treating EIMs due to its gut specific mechanism. UST shows clinical efficacy in the treatment of EIMs and is used for UC treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Extra-intestinal manifestations are frequently reported in inflammatory bowel diseases. However, data comparing the effect of vedolizumab and ustekinumab on articular extra-intestinal manifestations are limited. The aim here was to evaluate differences in new-onset and the evolution of pre-existing joint extra-intestinal manifestations during both treatments. METHODS An international multicentre retrospective study was performed on inflammatory bowel disease patients who started vedolizumab or ustekinumab between May 2010 and December 2020. Extra-intestinal manifestations were assessed at baseline and joint extra-intestinal manifestations were evaluated throughout the 2-year follow-up. Arthropathy was defined by joint inflammation [arthritis/sacroiliitis], diagnosed by a rheumatologist, and arthralgia as articular pain without confirmed inflammation. Additionally, skin, ocular and hepatic extra-intestinal manifestations were assessed at baseline. Uni- and multivariate analyses were performed. RESULTS In total, 911 patients [vedolizumab: 584; ustekinumab: 327] were included. Deterioration of pre-existing arthropathy and rate of new-onset arthropathy were not significantly associated with vedolizumab over ustekinumab. Arthropathy was used as reason to stop treatment in six vedolizumab and two ustekinumab patients. The odds of developing new arthralgia within 6 months was higher in patients who took vedolizumab compared to ustekinumab (adjusted odds ratio [aOR]: 2.28 [1.01-5.15], p = 0.047). However, this effect was not sustained during the 2-year follow-up (aOR: 1.35 [0.80-2.29], p = 0.259). Deterioration of pre-existing arthralgia was comparable between ustekinumab and vedolizumab-treated patients. In two vedolizumab-treated patients arthralgia was given as the reason to stop treatment. CONCLUSIONS Vedolizumab and ustekinumab can be used safely in patients with articular extra-intestinal manifestations. Only a temporary increased risk for developing arthralgia has been observed under vedolizumab.

Abstract
Ustekinumab, an inhibitor of the interleukin-12/23 pathway, received Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval in 2019 for induction and maintenance therapy in patients with moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis (UC). Data regarding the efficacy of ustekinumab in the treatment of extraintestinal manifestations of UC are unclear. Sweet syndrome, an acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis, is a cutaneous manifestation of inflammatory bowel disease that parallels disease activity. In this study, we present the first case of subcutaneous Sweet syndrome with sterile osteomyelitis in a patient with UC successfully treated with ustekinumab.

Abstract
The treatment of patients with moderate to severe Crohn's disease [CD] is still challenging. Therapeutic options include steroids, immunosuppressants, anti-TNFα agents, vedolizumab, and ustekinumab. Ustekinumab is a monoclonal antibody blocking the p40 subunit of IL-12 and IL-23. It showed to be effective and safe in randomised clinical trials and real-life studies and is currently approved for the management of CD patients who are naive to biologics and those who have already been treated with such medications. However, to date, a detailed and approved therapeutic algorithm is not available. The aim of this review is to report the most recent and updated data on the efficacy and safety of ustekinumab for the treatment of patients with moderate to severe CD and to define the optimal management of these patients.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic, life-long inflammatory condition of the gastrointestinal tract. Treatment strategy depends on the severity of the disease course. IBD physicians need to be aware of the life-long treatment options available. The goal is not only to achieve clinical remission but to halt or stabilize the chronic inflammation in the intestines to prevent further structural damage. Therefore, the use of early biologic therapy is recommended in moderate-to-severe IBD patients. However, in the last decade, use of therapeutic drug monitoring has increased considerably, opening an opportunity for sequencing. This review summarizes the available evidence on biologic and small molecules therapy in Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) in different clinical scenarios, including perianal CD, the elderly, extra intestinal manifestations, and pregnancy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a systemic inflammatory disease with a gut predominance, which may involve other organs. The presence of extraintestinal manifestation (EIM) is an important symptom for clinicians as it alters the treatment decisions. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the initial clinical presentation and disease severity of pediatric UC patients with EIMs. METHODS One hundred forty-two patients under the age of 18 years who were diagnosed with UC from January 2003 to November 2021 were included in this study. Forty-seven patients with confirmed EIMs and 95 patients without EIMs were divided into two groups and their differences were analyzed. RESULTS The most common EIM was peripheral arthritis. The disease extent at the time of diagnosis shows a higher rate of pancolitis in the EIM-positive group (65.9%) than that of the EIM-negative group (33.7%) (p < 0.001). More than 90% of EIM-positive patients had moderate to severe disease activity on the Mayo endoscopic subscore. In the EIM-positive group, the cumulative use of systemic steroids, immunosuppressants, and biological agents from diagnosis to 1 year follow-up were significantly higher than those of the EIM-negative group (p = 0.009, 0.001, and < 0.001, respectively). About 80% of patients in the EIM-negative group reached remission, but only about 50% of the EIM-positive patients reached remission (p = 0.005). The relapse occurred more frequently in the EIM-positive group than in the EIM-negative group with statistical significance (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION Pediatric UC with EIMs had higher disease severity and often manifested upper gastrointestinal tract involvement. Despite EIMs treatment, the occurrence of new EIMs was observed repeatedly. Cumulative drug demand (steroids, immunosuppressants, and biological agents) for the treatment increased steadily over time, and frequent relapses occurred despite the combinatory use of therapeutic drugs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Multiple studies have described the effectiveness of ustekinumab (UST) and vedolizumab (VDZ) in patients with Crohn's disease (CD) failing anti- Tumor necrosis factors (TNFs); however, the effectiveness of VDZ or UST as a third-class biologic has not yet been described. AIMS AND METHODS In this retrospective multicenter cohort study, we aimed to investigate the effectiveness of VDZ and UST as a third-class biologic in patients with CD. RESULTS Two-hundred and four patients were included; 156/204 (76%) patients received VDZ as a second- and UST as a third-class therapy (group A); the remaining 48/204 (24%) patients received UST as a second- and VDZ as a third-class therapy (group B). At week 16-22, 87/156 (55.5%) patients and 27/48 (56.2%) in groups A and B, respectively, responded to treatment (p = 0.9); 41/156 (26.2%) and 15/48 (31.2%) were in clinical remission (p = 0.5). At week 52; 89/103 (86%) patients and 25/29 (86.2%) of the patients with available data had responded to third-class treatment in groups A and B, respectively (p = 0.9); 31/103 (30%) and 47/29 (24.1%) were in clinical remission (p = 0.5). CONCLUSION Third-class biological therapy was effective in more than half of the patients with CD. No differences in effectiveness were detected between the use of VDZ and UST as a third-class agent.
