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.

Long-term outcomes and predictors of vedolizumab persistence in ulcerative colitis. Therap Adv Gastroenterol 2024; 17:17562848241258372. [PMID: 39086990 PMCID: PMC11289824 DOI: 10.1177/17562848241258372] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2023] [Accepted: 05/13/2024] [Indexed: 08/02/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Long-term vedolizumab (VDZ) outcomes in real-world cohorts have been largely limited to 1-year follow-up, with few bio-naïve patients or objective markers of inflammation assessed. Objectives We aimed to assess factors affecting VDZ persistence including clinical, biochemical and faecal biomarker remission at 1, 3 and 5 years. Design We performed a retrospective, observational, cohort study. Methods All adult inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients who had received VDZ induction for ulcerative colitis (UC)/IBD-unclassified (IBDU) were included. Baseline phenotype and follow-up data were collected via a review of electronic medical records. Results We included 290 patients [UC n = 271 (93.4%), IBDU n = 19 (6.6%)] with a median time on VDZ of 27.6 months (interquartile range: 14.4-43.2). At the end of follow-up, a total of 157/290 (54.1%) patients remained on VDZ. The median time to discontinuation was 14.1 months (7.0-23.3). Previous exposure to ⩾1 advanced therapy, steroid use at baseline and disease extension (E3 and E2 versus E1) were independent predictors for worse VDZ persistence. Clinical remission (partial Mayo < 2) was 75.7% (171/226), 72.4% (157/217) and 70.2% (127/181) at years 1, 3 and 5, respectively. Steroid use during maintenance VDZ therapy occurred in 31.7% (92/290), hospitalization in 15.5% (45/290) and surgery in 3.4% (10/291). The rate of serious adverse events was 1.2 per 100 patient-years of follow-up. Conclusion VDZ effectiveness appears enduring with favourable long-term safety profile. VDZ persistence was influenced by previous exposure to biologics/small molecules, disease distribution and steroid use at baseline in our study.

Abstract
Immune cell trafficking, an essential mechanism for maintaining immunological homeostasis and mounting effective responses to infections, operates under a stringent regulatory framework. Recent advances have shed light on the perturbation of cell migration patterns, highlighting how such disturbances can propagate inflammatory diseases from their origin to distal organs. This review collates and discusses current evidence that demonstrates atypical communication between the gut and skin, which are conventionally viewed as distinct immunological spheres, in the milieu of inflammation. We focus on the aberrant, reciprocal translocation of immune cells along the gut-skin axis as a pivotal factor linking intestinal and dermatological inflammatory conditions. Recognizing that the translation of these findings into clinical practices is nascent, we suggest that therapeutic strategies aimed at modulating the axis may offer substantial benefits in mitigating the widespread impact of inflammatory diseases.

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.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is an incurable disease characterized by remission-relapse cycles throughout its course. Both Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), the two main forms of IBD, exhibit tendency to develop complications and substantial heterogeneity in terms of frequency and severity of relapse, thus posing great challenges to the clinical management for IBD. Current treatment strategies are effective in different ways in induction and maintenance therapies for IBD. Recent advances in studies of genetics, pharmacogenetics, proteomics and microbiome provide a strong driving force for identifying molecular markers of prognosis and treatment response, which should help clinicians manage IBD patients more effectively, and then, improve clinical outcomes and reduce treatment costs of patients. In this review, we summarize and discuss precision medicine in IBD, focusing on predictive markers of disease course and treatment response, and monitoring indices during therapeutic drug monitoring.

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
BACKGROUND The efficacy and safety of vedolizumab in bio-naïve patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) remain unknown. AIMS To perform a meta-analysis regarding vedolizumab as first line of biological therapy for UC or CD. METHODS A systematic review of Medline, EMBASE, and Cochrane databases per December 2020 was undertaken. Meta-analysis was conducted using random-effects models. RESULTS This systematic review identified 79 eligible studies with 4,520 and 3,494 bio-naïve patients with UC and CD, respectively, and 8,105 and 11,140 bio-exposed patients. Among bio-naïve patients with UC, a total of 40.0% (95%CI 27.0-54.0, I2=86%) and 63.9% (95%CI 47.0-79.2, I2=36%) achieved clinical remission at weeks 14 and 52, respectively. The corresponding rates in CD were 54.0% (95%CI 42.0-66.0, I2=23%), and 61.7% (95%CI 55.2-68.1, I2=0%). Bio-naïvety was associated with a higher probability of clinical remission at week 52 in UC (relative risk (RR)=1.32 (95%CI 1.14-1.53)), while this was only apparent until week 26 in CD (RR=1.60 (95%CI 1.30-1.95)). Finally, bio-naïve UC patients had a lower risk of serious adverse events (RR=0.29 (95%CI 0.09-0.95)). CONCLUSION Vedolizumab was found to have a favorable efficacy and safety profile in bio-naïve patients with UC and CD. The findings have implications in the management of IBD.

Abstract
The number of available biological therapies have doubled over the last 10 years and the arrival of novel molecules (interleukin 23p19 inhibitors) is ongoing alongside the development of small molecules. As a result of this vast landscape of treatment, positioning advanced therapies (according to clinical situation, efficacy and safety) is of paramount importance to providing personalized, appropriate IBD treatment. In this publication the recent available literature is summarized for practical integration into clinical practice including comparative efficacy data, patient and disease demographics. We refer to recent publications and expert opinion in order to facilitate the decision making process of positioning biologicals IBD treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Vedolizumab use in pediatrics is still off-label and the data are limited. We conducted a systematic review evaluating the efficacy and safety of vedolizumab in children and adolescents with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). METHODS PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane databases were systematically searched for studies of vedolizumab in children and adolescents with IBD reporting clinical remission, response, corticosteroid-free (CS-free) remission, mucosal healing, or safety up to December 3rd 2021. RESULTS Ten studies, comprising 455 patients were included. For CD, the pooled clinical remission rates were 25% (19/75) at 6 weeks, 28% (25/85) at 14 weeks, 32% (17/53) at 22 weeks, and 46% (43/92) at 1 year. For UC/IBD-U, the pooled clinical remission rates were 36% (25/70) at 6 weeks, 48% (52/101) at 14 weeks, 53% (24/45) at 22 weeks, and 45% (50/112) at 1 year. Mucosal healing was found in 17%-39% of CD and 15%-34% of UC/IBD-U respectively. Six percent of patients reported serious adverse events. CONCLUSIONS According to low-quality evidence based on case series, approximately one-third and one-half of patients for CD and UC/IBD-U respectively achieved remission within 22 weeks, and about half of patients achieved remission at 1 year with reasonable safety profile. Long-term benefit profile data and high quality evidence are still needed.

Abstract
Information on comparative drug efficacy is of great importance for drug development as well as clinical practice. Up to now, the relative efficacy of biologics and small targeted molecules for Crohn’s disease (CD) remains unclear. The objective of this study was to quantify the relative efficacy of investigational and approved biological treatments for CD measured in Crohn’s Disease Activity Index (CDAI), Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ), and C-reactive protein (CRP). The analysis dataset was composed of summary-level data from 46 trials, containing 12,846 patients, with treatment of 24 drugs. Six mathematical models with non-parametric placebo estimations were developed to describe the time course and dose–response of six efficacy measures. The effects of covariate were further evaluated. Time–response relationships were found in outcomes measured in CDAI. The patients’ age, disease duration, baseline CDAI, and CRP showed an impact on the efficacy. Model simulations were performed to compare the efficacies across different drugs. The most achievement in clinical remission (defined as CDAI less than 150) and clinical response (defined as the reduction in CDAI for 100 or 70) was observed in the simulation for PF-04236921 and infliximab, respectively. The most improvement in IBDQ was shown in tofacitinib. In general, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α inhibitors were the most effective biologics, and the highest efficacy of small targeted molecules was observed in janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors. These findings have important implications for clinical practice in CD.
