Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is associated with extraintestinal manifestations that can affect multiple body systems. Extraintestinal manifestations (EIMSs) are seen in up to 50% of patients with IBD. Skin involvement is particularly common occurring in up to 15%-20% of patients. Skin reactivity presents in multiple forms with unique pathology. Therapy for IBD also may affect the skin directly through inflammatory processes or indirectly because of skin infections. This review will concentrate on the most common nonmalignant dermatologic conditions associated with IBD with a focus on prevalence, diagnostic approaches, and management strategies.

[PMID: 39575158 PMCID: PMC11580093 DOI: 10.1177/17562848241293938] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2024] [Accepted: 09/30/2024] [Indexed: 11/24/2024] Open
Abstract
Background The Crohn's Disease (CD) Activity Index (CDAI), Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) Questionnaire (IBDQ), and IBD-Fatigue (IBD-F) scale are useful patient-reported outcome (PRO) tools for assessing the treatment benefits of vedolizumab (VDZ) beyond clinical trial endpoints in patients with CD. Objectives To assess clinical response, clinical remission, steroid-free remission, changes from baseline for PROs, and safety in a real-world cohort of patients with moderate-to-severe active CD treated with VDZ. Design POLONEZ II was a multicenter, observational, prospective study across 10 Polish centers from April 2020 to October 2023 for 54 weeks in patients with CD eligible for reimbursed VDZ. Methods Primary endpoints at week 54 (W54) were clinical response (⩾70-point reduction in CDAI and >25% reduction vs baseline), remission (CDAI score ⩽150), and steroid-free remission. Other outcomes were changes in PROs (CDAI score and health-related quality of life) and safety. Kaplan-Meier survival analyses were performed. Results Of 98 patients with CD, the mean age was 35.2 years, 57.1% were male, and 72.4% had an ileocolonic disease. At W54 (n = 98), 63.3% of patients achieved clinical response, 48.0% remission, and 36.0% steroid-free remission. The durability of clinical response, remission, and steroid-free remission (W14-W54) were 68.9%, 62.9%, and 57.1%, respectively. By W54, a significant reduction in the PROs, such as the total CDAI score (p < 0.001), stool frequency (p < 0.001), abdominal pain score (p < 0.001), IBDQ (p < 0.001), IBD-F (p < 0.05), and fatigue impact on daily activities (p < 0.001), was observed. During VDZ treatment, arthralgia (23.7%-8.7%) and anemia (22.6%-15.9%) decreased between baseline and W54. Non-serious adverse events (SAEs; 12.2%), SAEs (7.1%), and VDZ-related rash (1.0%) were reported. Mean CD-related hospitalization duration decreased from baseline (10.2 days) to the end of the study (5.3 days). Conclusion POLONEZ II demonstrated long-term real-world benefits of VDZ toward effectiveness, safety, and improved PROs and patients' quality of life. Trial registration ENCePP (EUPAS32716).

The impact of vedolizumab therapy on extraintestinal manifestations in patients with inflammatory bowel disease: A systematic review and meta-analysis. J Gastroenterol Hepatol 2024; 39:1745-1759. [PMID: 38740543 DOI: 10.1111/jgh.16612] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/25/2023] [Revised: 03/25/2024] [Accepted: 05/01/2024] [Indexed: 05/16/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Extraintestinal manifestations (EIMs) pose a significant threat in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients. Vedolizumab (VDZ) primarily affects the gastrointestinal tract. However, its impact on EIMs remains uncertain. Therefore, we conducted this meta-analysis to examine the effects of VDZ on EIMs during treatment. METHODS Relevant studies were identified by conducting thorough searches across electronic databases, including PubMed, Ovid Embase, Medline, and Cochrane CENTRAL. Primary outcomes focused on the proportion of patients with resolution for pre-existing EIMs in IBD patients receiving VDZ. Secondary outcomes included the proportion of patients with EIM exacerbations and new onset EIMs during VDZ treatment. RESULTS Our meta-analysis encompassed 21 studies. The proportion of patients with resolution of pre-existing EIMs in VDZ-treated IBD patients was 39% (150/386; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.31-0.48). The proportion of patients with EIM exacerbations occurred at a rate of 28% (113/376; 95% CI 0.05-0.50), while new onset EIMs had a rate of 15% (397/2541; 95% CI 0.10-0.20). Subgroup analysis revealed a 40% (136/337) proportion of patients with resolution for articular-related EIMs and a 50% (9/18) rate for erythema nodosum. Exacerbation rates for arthritis/arthralgia, erythema nodosum/pyoderma gangrenosum, and aphthous stomatitis during VDZ use were 28% (102/328), 18% (7/38), and 11% (3/28), respectively. The incidence rate of newly developed EIMs during treatment was 11% (564/4839) for articular-related EIMs, with other EIMs below 2%. CONCLUSION VDZ demonstrates efficacy in skin-related EIMs like erythema nodosum and joint-related EIMs including arthritis, arthralgia, spondyloarthritis, and peripheral joint diseases. Some joint and skin-related EIMs may experience exacerbation during VDZ therapy.

Incidence and Course of Joint Inflammation Associated with Inflammatory Bowel Disease in Patients Undergoing Treatment with Vedolizumab/Ustekinumab: The VEDUSTAR Study. J Clin Med 2024; 13:1076. [PMID: 38398390 PMCID: PMC10889195 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13041076] [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: 01/11/2024] [Revised: 02/10/2024] [Accepted: 02/11/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of ustekinumab (UST) and vedolizumab (VDZ) in the extraintestinal joint manifestations of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) remain unclear, and most existing studies are retrospective. The aim of this prospective study was to analyze the incidence of new-onset joint disease or the worsening of pre-existing IBD-associated joint disease in patients treated with UST and VDZ. METHODS The study population comprised IBD patients with previous spondyloarthritis (SpA) or new-onset arthropathy undergoing treatment with VDZ or UST. RESULTS Eighty patients were referred to rheumatology because of previous SpA or onset of symptoms. Most patients (90%) were anti-TNF experienced. Two patients with previous SpA (2/22; 9%) experienced a flare-up (one with UST and one with VDZ), and two patients with VDZ developed SpA during follow-up (2/58; 3%). Only one of these four patients did not have gastrointestinal symptoms, and VDZ was discontinued because of joint symptoms. The other three patients had concomitant intestinal activity, and treatment was not discontinued. CONCLUSION Our experience shows that treatment with UST and VDZ did not worsen joint disease in patients with SpA. Most remained stable or improved. In addition, poor control of IBD in patients with joint flare-ups could be the main cause of worsening SpA.

HLA Class I Expression Is Associated with DNA Damage and Immune Cell Infiltration into Dysplastic and Neoplastic Lesions in Ulcerative Colitis. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:13648.

Abstract
Human leukocyte antigen class I (HLA-I) is considered a genetic pathogen for ulcerative colitis (UC). This study aimed to investigate the significance of DNA damage and HLA-I expression in infiltrating immune cells and immune checkpoint protein PD-L1 expression in dysplasia/colitic cancer (CC) and sporadic colorectal cancer (SCRC). We performed immunohistochemical staining for HLA-I, PD-L1, γH2AX (DNA damage marker), and immune cell markers such as CD8, FOXP3, CD68, and CD163 (in surgically resected specimens from 17 SCRC patients with 12 adjacent normal mucosa (NM) and 9 UC patients with 18 dysplasia/CC tumors. The ratio of membrane HLA-I-positive epithelial cells in UC and dysplasia/CC tissues was significantly higher than that in NM and SCRC. High HLA-I expression in dysplasia/CC was associated with high positivity of γH2AX and PD-L1 expression compared to SCRC. The infiltration of CD8-positive T cells and CD68-positive macrophages in HLA-I-high dysplasia/CC was significantly higher than in UC and SCRC. Dysplasia/CC specimens with DNA damage exhibited high levels of HLA-I-positive epithelial cells with high CD8- and CD68-positive immune cell infiltration compared to UC and SCRC specimens. Targeting DNA damage in UC may regulate immune cell infiltration, immune checkpoint proteins, and carcinogenesis by modulating DNA damage-induced HLA-I antigen presentation.
