Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Pivotal trials in ulcerative colitis have historically excluded patients with isolated proctitis. Etrasimod is an oral, oncedaily, selective sphingosine 1phosphate1,4,5 receptor modulator for the treatment of moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis. This post hoc analysis assessed efficacy and safety of etrasimod 2 mg once daily in patients with isolated proctitis (centrally read) from the phase 3 ELEVATE UC 52 and ELEVATE UC 12 trials. METHODS Patients, including those with isolated proctitis (<10 cm rectal involvement) who met all other inclusion criteria in ELEVATE UC 52 and ELEVATE UC 12, were randomised 2:1 to receive etrasimod or placebo. Primary, secondary and other identified efficacy endpoints and safety were assessed. RESULTS We analysed data from 64 and 723 patients at Week 12 (both trials pooled), and 36 and 397 patients at Week 52 (ELEVATE UC 52 only) with isolated proctitis and more extensive colitis (≥10 cm rectal involvement), respectively. Patients with isolated proctitis receiving etrasimod demonstrated significant improvements versus placebo, including clinical remission rates at Weeks 12 (42.9% vs 13.6%) and 52 (44.4% vs 11.1%), endoscopic improvement (52.4% vs 22.7%) at Week 12 and bowel urgency numerical rating scale score at Week 12 (all p<0.01). Generally similar trends were observed in patients with more extensive colitis. Safety was consistent across subgroups, with no new findings. CONCLUSIONS Etrasimod demonstrated significant improvements versus placebo in patients with isolated proctitis, and those with more extensive disease, in most efficacy endpoints at Week 12 and 52.

Abstract
Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors and sphingosine 1 phosphate (S1P) receptor modulators are small molecule drugs (SMDs) approved for IBD treatment. Their use in clinical practice might be limited due to cardiovascular concerns. We aimed to provide guidance on risk assessment, monitoring, and management strategies, aiming to minimize potential cardiovascular risks of SMDs and to facilitate an adequate shared decision-making. A systematic literature search was conducted, and proposed statements were prepared. A virtual consensus meeting was held, in which eleven IBD physicians and two cardiovascular specialists from ten countries attended. Proposed statements were voted upon in an anonymous manner. Agreement was defined as at least 75 % of participants voting as 'agree' with each statement. Consensus was reached for eighteen statements. Available evidence does not show a higher risk of cardiovascular events with JAK inhibitors in the overall IBD population, although it might be increased in patients with an unfavorable cardiovascular profile. S1P receptor modulators may be associated with a risk of bradycardia, atrioventricular blocks, and hypertension. Cardiovascular risk stratification should be done before initiation of SMDs. Although the risk of cardiovascular events in patients with IBD on SMDs appears to be low overall, caution should still be taken in certain scenarios.

Abstract
Children with very early onset inflammatory bowel disease (VEO-IBD) may respond differently to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) immunization compared to healthy children or other patients with IBD. We recruited children with VEO-IBD <6 years of age and younger following receipt of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccine. Demographics, IBD characteristics, medication use, adverse events (AEs) and IBD exacerbations were collected. Blood draws (optional) were obtained for measurement of antireceptor binding domain (RBD) IgG antibodies following vaccination. Of 41 participants, none required emergency department visit or hospitalization due to AE, and only one experienced IBD exacerbation. Detectable antibody was present in 19/19 participants who provided blood sample; 6/7 participants (86%) had durable humoral response 12 months postvaccination. Children with VEO-IBD experience robust humoral immune response to COVID-19 immunization. Severe AEs were rare. These findings provide reassurance that children with VEO-IBD respond well and safely to SARS-CoV-2 vaccination.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION To better inform the risk of cuffitis in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC), we aimed to identify its occurrence and associated precolectomy factors in a large multicenter cohort of patients who underwent restorative proctocolectomy (RPC) with stapled ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA). METHODS This study was a retrospective cohort analysis of individuals diagnosed with UC or indeterminate colitis who underwent RPC with IPAA for refractory disease or dysplasia at Mount Sinai Hospital or the University of Chicago followed by at least 1 pouchoscopy with report of the pouch-anal anastomosis. The primary outcome was cuffitis defined as ulceration of the cuff as reported in each pouchoscopy report. RESULTS The pouch-anal anastomosis was mentioned in the pouchoscopy reports of 674 patients, of whom 525 (77.9%) had a stapled anastomosis. Among these, cuffitis occurred in 313 (59.6%) patients a median of 1.51 (interquartile range 0.59-4.17) years after final surgical stage. On multivariable analysis, older age (hazard ratio [HR], 1.01; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.01-1.02), extensive disease (HR, 1.34; 95% CI, 1.01-1.78), exposure to biologics before colectomy (HR, 2.51; 95% CI, 1.93-3.27), and exposure to at least 2 or more biologics before colectomy (HR, 2.18; 95% CI, 1.40-3.39) were significantly associated with subsequent cuffitis. CONCLUSIONS In this multicenter study of patients who underwent RPC with stapled IPAA and at least 1 follow-up pouchoscopy, cuffitis occurred in approximately 60% and was significantly associated with extensive disease and exposure to multiple biologics precolectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Data are limited on the safety and efficacy of combining advanced therapies for refractory patients with IBD. AIM To evaluate the real-world efficacy and safety of dual advanced therapy (DAT), combining 2 biologics or a biologic with a small molecule, in children and young adults with refractory IBD. METHODS Primary outcome of this single IBD center cohort was DAT remission (clinical and biomarker remission) at first assessment (T1). Secondary outcomes included remission at T2, if DAT de-intensification (De-I) occurred and T3, if T2 DAT re-intensification (Re-I) occurred. Efficacy and safety outcomes were described. RESULTS Of the 30 patients [43% female, 30% CD, median age of 18.3 [15.1-19.8] years], all 11 UST + TOFA achieved T1 remission; 6/10 De-I failed at T2; and 4/4 Re-I achieved T3 remission. Of 9 VDZ + TOFA, 6 achieved T1 remission; 5/6 De-I failed at T2; and 1/1 failed T3 Re-I. Of 4 UST + VDZ, 3 achieved T1 remission; 2/3 De-I failed at T2; and 0 had Re-I. Of 5 UST + UPA, 4 achieved T1 remission; 1/5 De-I failed at T2 but recaptured T3 remission post-Re-I. One VDZ + OZA achieved T1 remission and maintained T2 remission post-De-I to OZA monotherapy. At last follow-up, 43% were on original DAT, 17% on one of original DAT, and 40% neither. One UST + TOFA patient developed mild leukopenia and another developed septic arthritis and venous thromboembolism on VDZ + TOFA and prednisone. CONCLUSION Most children and young adults treated with DAT achieved remission with minimal safety events; however, de-intensification had limited success.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The adverse effects of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory (NSAID) drugs on the gastrointestinal system are well recognized, but the effect of NSAID use on disease activity patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) remains unresolved. Low-dose aspirin (LDA) is recommended for all pregnant patients with risk factors for developing preeclampsia, including autoimmune conditions. As recognition of risk factors for preeclampsia improves, the preventative use of LDA is likely to increase. AIMS To investigate if LDA use for prevention of preeclampsia increases the risk of disease activity in pregnant women with IBD. METHODS Single-center retrospective cohort study of pregnant patients with IBD who delivered from 2012 to 2020, comparing those with and without LDA use. Primary outcome was odds of clinical IBD activity in patients in remission at time of conception. Secondary outcomes were rate of elevated inflammatory biomarkers, defined as C-reactive protein > 5 ug/mL or fecal calprotectin > 250 ug/g, and rate of preeclampsia. Univariate analyses tested for associations. RESULTS Patients taking LDA were older (p = 0.003) and more likely to have chronic hypertension (p = 0.002), to have undergone in vitro fertilization (p < 0.001), and to be on biologics (p = 0.03). Among patients in remission at conception, there was no difference in clinical disease activity or biomarker elevation during pregnancy based on LDA use (OR 1.27, 95% CI [0.55-2.94], p = 0.6). Rates of preeclampsia were similar between groups. CONCLUSION LDA use for preeclampsia prevention did not increase the incidence of disease activity in pregnant patients with IBD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mirikizumab, a p19-directed interleukin-23 monoclonal antibody, is efficacious in inducing clinical remission at week 12 (W12) and maintaining clinical remission at W52 in patients with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis. Results are presented from the open-label extension study through W104. METHODS Clinical, symptomatic, quality-of-life, and adverse event outcomes are reported for mirikizumab induction responders and extended induction responders, including biologic-failed patients, who entered LUCENT-3, with data shown for W52 maintenance responders or remitters. Discontinuations or missing data were handled by nonresponder imputation (NRI), modified NRI (mNRI), and observed case (OC). RESULTS Among W52 mirikizumab responders, clinical response at W104 was 74.5%, 87.2%, and 96.7% and clinical remission was 76.6%, 89.0%, and 98.3% for NRI, mNRI, and OC, respectively. Among W52 mirikizumab remitters, clinical response at W104 was 54.0%, 62.8%, and 70.1% and clinical remission was 65.6%, 76.1%, and 84.2%. Using mNRI, remission rates at W104 for W52 clinical remitters were 74.7% corticosteroid-free, 79.5% endoscopic, 63.9% histologic-endoscopic mucosal remission, 85.9% symptomatic, 59.8% bowel urgency, 80.5% Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (using NRI), 71.2% histologic-endoscopic mucosal improvement, and 77.5% bowel urgency improvement. Previous biologic-failed vs not-biologic-failed patient data were generally similar. Extended induction mNRI clinical response was 81.9%. Serious adverse events were reported in 5.2% of patients; 2.8% discontinued treatment due to adverse events. CONCLUSIONS Endoscopic, histologic, symptomatic, and quality-of-life outcomes support the long-term benefit of mirikizumab treatment up to 104 weeks in patients with ulcerative colitis, including biologic-failed patients, with no new safety concerns.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS COVID-19 vaccination prevents severe disease in most patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), but immunosuppressive medications can blunt serologic response. We followed adults with IBD for >1 year post-COVID-19 vaccination to describe factors associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection after vaccination, evaluate for a protective SARS-CoV-2 antibody level, characterize SARS-CoV-2 antibody persistence, and identify factors associated with humoral immune response durability. METHODS Using a prospective cohort of COVID-19 immunized adults with IBD, we analyzed factors associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection after vaccination. We evaluated for an association between SARS-CoV-2 antibody level 12 weeks postvaccination and subsequent SARS-CoV-2 infection and assessed for a threshold of protection using receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis. We then conducted a separate analysis evaluating factors associated with persistence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies 52 weeks postimmunization. RESULTS Almost half (43%) of 1869 participants developed COVID-19 after vaccination, but most infections were mild, and <1% required hospitalization. Older age and corticosteroid use were associated with a decreased risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection postvaccination (50-59 years of age vs 18-29 years of age: adjusted hazard ratio, 0.57; 95% confidence interval, 0.44-0.74; steroid users vs nonusers: adjusted hazard ratio, 0.58; 95% confidence interval, 0.39-0.87). Most (98%) participants had detectable antibody levels at 52 weeks postvaccination. Antibody levels at 12 weeks and number of vaccine doses were positively associated with higher antibody levels at 52 weeks, while anti-tumor necrosis factor α therapy was negatively associated. CONCLUSIONS COVID-19 vaccination generates an effective and durable protective response for the vast majority of adults with IBD, including vulnerable populations such as corticosteroid users and older individuals. Patients with IBD benefit from COVID-19 booster vaccination.

Abstract
Introduction We evaluated baseline Clearance of anti-tumor necrosis factors and human leukocyte antigen variant (HLA DQA1*05) in combination as poor prognostic factors (PPF) of pharmacokinetic (PK) origin impacting immune response (formation of antidrug antibodies) and disease control of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients treated with infliximab or adalimumab. Methods Baseline Clearance was estimated in IBD patients before starting treatment using weight and serum albumin concentrations. HLA DQA1*05 carrier status (rs2097432 A/G or G/G variant) was measured using real time polymerase chain reaction. The outcomes consisted of immune response, clinical and biochemical remission (C-reactive protein<3 mg/L in the absence of symptoms), and endoscopic remission (SES-CD<3). Statistical analysis consisted of logistic regression and nonlinear mixed effect models. Results and discussion In 415 patients enrolled from 4 different cohorts (median age 27 [IQR: 15-43] years, 46% females), Clearance>0.326 L/day and HLA DQA1*05 carrier status were 2-fold more likely to have antidrug antibodies (OR=2.3, 95%CI: 1.7-3.4; p<0.001, and OR=1.9, 95%CI: 1.4-2.8; p<0.001, respectively). Overall, each incremental PPF of PK origin resulted in a 2-fold (OR=2.16, 95%CI: 1.7-2.7; p<0.11) [corrected] higher likelihood of antidrug antibody formation. The presence of both PPF of PK origin resulted in higher rates of antidrug antibodies (p<0.01) and lower clinical and biochemical remission (p<0.01). Each incremental increase in PPF of PK origin associated with lower likelihood of endoscopic remission (OR=0.4, 95%CI: 0.2-0.7; p<0.001). Prior biologic experience heightened the negative impact of PPF of PK origin on clinical and biochemical remission (p<0.01). Implementation of proactive therapeutic drug monitoring reduced it, particularly during maintenance and in the presence of higher drug concentrations (p<0.001). We conclude that PPF of PK origin, including both higher Clearance and carriage of HLA DQA1*05, impact outcomes in patients with IBD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION High rates of screen failure for the minimum Simple Endoscopic Score for Crohn's Disease (SES-CD) plague Crohn's disease (CD) clinical trials. We aimed to determine the accuracy of segmental intestinal ultrasound (IUS) parameters and scores to detect segmental SES-CD activity. METHODS A single-center, blinded, cross-sectional cohort study of children and young adult patients with CD undergoing IUS and ileocolonoscopy, comparing segmental IUS bowel wall thickness (BWT), hyperemia (modified Limberg score [MLS]), and scores to detect segmental SES-CD activity: (i) SES-CD ≤2, (ii) SES-CD ≥6, and (iii) SES-CD ≥4 in the terminal ileum (TI) only. Primary outcome was accuracy of BWT, MLS, and IUS scores to detect SES-CD ≤2 and SES-CD ≥6. Secondary outcomes were accuracy of TI BWT, MLS, and IUS scores to detect SES-CD ≥4 and correlation with the SES-CD. RESULTS Eighty-two patients (median [interquartile range] age 16.5 [12.9-20.0] years) underwent IUS and ileocolonoscopy of 323 bowel segments. Segmental BWT ≤3.1 mm had a similar high accuracy to detect SES-CD ≤2 as IUS scores (area under the receiver operating curve [AUROC] 0.833 [95% confidence interval 0.76-0.91], 94% sensitivity, and 73% specificity). Segmental BWT ≥3.6 mm and ≥4.3 mm had similar high accuracy to detect SES-CD ≥6 (AUROC 0.950 [95% confidence interval 0.92-0.98], 89% sensitivity, 93% specificity) in the colon and an SES-CD ≥4 in the TI (AUROC 0.874 [0.79-0.96], 80% sensitivity, and 91% specificity) as IUS scores. Segmental IUS scores strongly correlated with the SES-CD. DISCUSSION Segmental IUS BWT is highly accurate to detect moderate-to-severe endoscopic inflammation. IUS may be the ideal prescreening tool to reduce unnecessary trial screen failures.

Abstract
Background Cytomegalovirus (CMV) can be reactivated in ulcerative colitis (UC), but its role in progression of inflammation is unclear. Risk factors include severe colitis and treatment with immunosuppressive medications, particularly corticosteroids and immunomodulators. Methods We report a case of cytomegalovirus colitis in a pediatric patient with pancolitis who had been refractory to aminosalicylate, infliximab, and ustekinumab and was in clinical remission and with transmural response on upadacitinib. Results This is a case of a 13-year-old male with UC refractory to multiple therapies who were in clinical remission on upadacitinib 30 mg daily. He developed an acute increase in symptoms and did not respond to therapy escalation with increased upadacitinib 45 mg daily for 2 weeks and prednisone for 1 week. He was diagnosed with cytomegalovirus colitis on flexible sigmoidoscopy biopsy. He was treated with intravenous ganciclovir with tapering of immunosuppressive regimen. Despite initial response, he underwent subtotal colectomy and subsequent restorative proctocolectomy with ileal pouch anal-anastomosis. Conclusions Despite our patient having multiple risk factors for developing CMV colitis, upadacitinib may have played a role when considering its known impact on the herpes family of viruses. CMV colitis should be evaluated for in any patient who presents with worsening symptoms without evidence of other infection or response to increase in therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS STRIDE-II recommends early biomarker targets for treatment optimization to achieve treat-to-target (T2T) endoscopic remission (ER) in Crohn's disease (CD). Predictive capabilities of intestinal ultrasound (IUS) for T2T ER remains unknown. We aimed to evaluate IUS response to predict ER in children with CD. METHODS Prospective longitudinal cohort study of children with ileal (TI) CD initiating biologic therapy undergoing IUS, clinical disease activity, and C-reactive protein (CRP) assessments at baseline, week 8, 6 months, and T2T within 1 year. Primary outcome was the accuracy of optimal cut-points to predict TI ER (SES-CD < 2) for change in bowel wall thickness (BWT) on IUS from baseline to week 8, and BWT at week 8. Area under the receiver operating curve analysis was performed and univariate analysis tested associations. RESULTS 44 children (median age 13 [IQR 12-17] years, 29 (66%) biologic naïve) were included, 29 (66%) achieved ER. A > 18% decrease in TI BWT at week 8 predicted ER with an AUROC of 0.99 [95% CI 0.98-1.00], 100% sensitivity, 93% specificity, 97% PPV, and 100% NPV, superior to a > 46% decrease in PCDAI (AUROC 0.67 [95% CI 0.49-0.84]) and > 84% decrease in CRP (AUROC 0.49 [95% CI 0.31-0.67]) at week 8. CONCLUSIONS Early change in TI BWT on IUS is highly predictive of ER in children with CD and superior to symptoms and CRP. Our findings suggest that IUS could be used for treatment optimization and tight control to guide T2T strategy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Upadacitinib (UPA) is a novel selective JAK inhibitor approved for adults with ulcerative colitis (UC) and with positive phase 3 data for Crohn's disease (CD). Pediatric off-label use is common due to delays in pediatric approvals; real-world data on UPA are needed to understand the safety and effectiveness in pediatric IBD. METHODS This is a single-center retrospective case series study of adolescents (12-17 years) with inflammatory bowel disease IBD on UPA. The primary outcome was postinduction steroid-free clinical remission (SF-CR) defined as Pediatric UC Activity Index (PUCAI) or Pediatric CD Activity Index (PCDAI) ≤10. Secondary outcomes include postinduction clinical response (decrease ≥12.5 in PUCAI/PCDAI), postinduction C-reactive protein (CRP) normalization, 6-month SF-CR, and intestinal ultrasound response and remission. Adverse events were recorded through last follow-up. RESULTS Twenty patients (9 CD, 10 UC, 1 IBD-U; 55% female; median age 15 years, 90% ≥2 biologics) were treated with UPA for ≥12 weeks (median 51 [43-63] weeks). Upadacitinib was used as monotherapy in 55% and as combination with ustekinumab and vedolizumab in 35% and 10%, respectively. Week 12 SF-CR was achieved in 75% (15/20) and 80% (16/20) with CRP normalization. About 3/4 (14/19) achieved SF-CR at 6 months. Adverse event occurred in 2 patients (10%): Cytomegalovirus colitis requiring hospitalization and hyperlipidemia requiring no treatment. In the 75% with ultrasound monitoring, response and remission were achieved in 77% and 60%, respectively. CONCLUSION While awaiting pediatric registration trials, our data suggest that UPA is effective in inducing and maintaining SF-CR in adolescents with highly-refractory IBD with an acceptable safety profile.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pouchitis occurs in up to 80% of patients after total proctocolectomy (TPC) with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) and has been associated with microbial and host-related immunological factors. We hypothesized that a more robust immune response at the time of colectomy, manifested by acute severe ulcerative colitis (ASUC), may be associated with subsequent acute pouchitis. METHODS This was a retrospective cohort analysis of all patients with UC or indeterminate colitis complicated by medically refractory disease or dysplasia who underwent TPC with IPAA at Mount Sinai Hospital between 2008 and 2017 and at least 1 subsequent pouchoscopy. Acute pouchitis was defined according to the Pouchitis Disease Activity Index. Cox regression was used to assess unadjusted relationships between hypothesized risk factors and acute pouchitis. RESULTS A total of 416 patients met inclusion criteria. Of the 165 (39.7%) patients who underwent urgent colectomy, 77 (46.7%) were admitted with ASUC. Acute pouchitis occurred in 228 (54.8%) patients a median of 1.3 (interquartile range, 0.6-3.1) years after the final surgical stage. On multivariable analysis, ASUC (hazard ratio [HR], 1.50; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.04-2.17) and a greater number of biologics precolectomy (HR, 1.57; 95% CI, 1.06-2.31) were associated with an increased probability of acute pouchitis, while older age at colectomy (HR, 0.98; 95% CI, 0.97-0.99) was associated with a decreased probability. Time to pouchitis was significantly less in patients admitted with ASUC compared with those not (P = .002). CONCLUSION A severe UC disease phenotype at the time of colectomy was associated with an increased probability of acute pouchitis.

Abstract
PURPOSE Bowel urgency (BU) is an important symptom of Crohn's disease (CD), however there is no patient-reported outcome (PRO) scale validated in this population to assess BU severity. Here we evaluated the content validity and psychometric properties of the Urgency Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). METHOD Qualitative interviews were conducted with moderate-to-severe CD participants to confirm importance and relevance of BU in this population, cognitively debrief the Urgency NRS, and explore score interpretation and CD remission. A quantitative web survey study was conducted to explore the measurement properties of the urgency NRS. RESULTS Qualitative Interview: 34 of 35 participants reported BU. It was most bothersome for 44%, 47% reported it daily, 18% with every bowel movement. BU had a severe impact on daily activities, causing many participants to stay home more than preferred. Patients confirmed the relevance, appropriateness, comprehensibility of the item, recall period, response options, and instructions of the Urgency NRS. Small reductions on the Urgency NRS score reflected meaningful improvements. Quantitative survey: The study sample comprised 76 participants (65.8% female). Mean Urgency NRS score was 4.7 (SD 2.26; N = 76) at Week 1, with no floor/ceiling effect. Test-retest reliability was acceptable. Construct and known-groups validity against selected PROs were overall strong and within ranges hypothesized a priori. CONCLUSION The Urgency NRS is a valid and reliable instrument to assess BU severity in CD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Patients with inflammatory bowel disease have increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular [CV] disease [ASCVD]. Tofacitinib is an oral Janus kinase inhibitor for the treatment of ulcerative colitis [UC]. We report major adverse CV events [MACE] in the UC OCTAVE programme, stratified by baseline CV risk. METHODS Rates of MACE were analysed by baseline [first tofacitinib exposure] CV risk profile: prior ASCVD, or 10-year ASCVD risk categories [low, borderline, intermediate, high]. RESULTS Of 1157 patients [2814.4 patient-years of exposure; ≤7.8 years' tofacitinib treatment], 4% had prior ASCVD and 83% had no prior ASCVD and low-borderline baseline 10-year ASCVD risk. Eight [0.7%] patients developed MACE; one had prior ASCVD. Incidence rates [unique patients with events/100 patient-years of exposure; 95% confidence intervals] for MACE were: 0.95 [0.02-5.27] in patients with prior ASCVD; and 1.81 [0.05-10.07], 1.54 [0.42-3.95], 0.00 [0.00-2.85], and 0.09 [0.01-0.32] in patients without prior ASCVD and with high, intermediate, -borderline, and low baseline 10-year ASCVD risk, respectively. For the 5/7 patients with MACE and without prior ASCVD, 10-year ASCVD risk scores were numerically higher [>1%] prior to MACE versus at baseline, primarily due to increasing age. CONCLUSIONS Most patients receiving tofacitinib in the UC OCTAVE programme had low baseline 10-year ASCVD risk. MACE were more frequent in patients with prior ASCVD and higher baseline CV risk. This analysis demonstrates potential associations between baseline CV risk and MACE in patients with UC, suggesting CV risk should be assessed individually in clinical practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Total proctocolectomy with ileal pouch anal anastomosis (IPAA) for medically refractory ulcerative colitis or dysplasia may be associated with structural and inflammatory complications. However, even in their absence, defecatory symptoms secondary to dyssynergic defecation or fecal incontinence may occur. Although anorectal manometry is well established as the diagnostic test of choice for defecatory symptoms, its utility in the assessment of patients with IPAA is less established. In this systematic review, we critically evaluate the existing evidence for anopouch manometry (APM). METHODS A total of 393 studies were identified, of which 6 studies met all inclusion criteria. Studies were not pooled given different modalities of testing with varying outcome measures. RESULTS Overall, less than 10% of symptomatic patients post-IPAA were referred to APM. The prevalence of dyssynergic defecation as defined by the Rome IV criteria in symptomatic patients with IPAA ranged from 47.0% to 100%. Fecal incontinence in patients with IPAA was characterized by decreased mean and maximal resting anal pressure on APM, as well as pouch hyposensitivity. The recto-anal inhibitory reflex was absent in most patients with and without incontinence. CONCLUSION Manometry alone is an imperfect assessment of pouch function in patients with defecatory symptoms, and confirmatory testing may need to be performed with dynamic imaging.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Ulcerative Colitis (UC) Narrative global survey assessed aspects of living with UC. This analysis aimed to identify health care disparities, social determinants of health, and emotional impacts related to UC disease management, patient experience, and quality of life. METHODS The survey was conducted by The Harris Poll from August 2017 to February 2018 among adults with UC. Responses from 1000 patients in the United States, Canada, Japan, France, and Finland were analyzed based on patient income, employment status, educational level, age, sex, and psychological comorbidities. Odds ratios (ORs) with significant P values (P < .05) from multivariate logistic regression models are reported. RESULTS Low-income vs high-income patients were less likely to have participated in a peer mentoring (OR, 0.30) or UC education program (OR, 0.51). Patients not employed were less likely to report being in "good/excellent" health (OR, 0.58) than patients employed full time. Patients with low vs high educational levels were less likely to have reached out to patient associations/organizations (OR, 0.59). Patients aged younger than 50 years vs those aged 50 years and older were less likely to have visited an office within an inflammatory bowel disease center/clinic in the past 12 months (OR, 0.53). Males were less likely to be currently seeing their gastroenterologist than females (OR, 0.66). Patients with vs without depression were less likely to agree that UC had made them more resilient (OR, 0.51). CONCLUSIONS Substantial differences in disease management and health care experience were identified, based on categories pertaining to patient demographics and psychological comorbidities, which may help health care providers better understand and advance health equity to improve patient care.

Abstract
Background Micronutrient deficiencies may occur after restorative proctocolectomy (RPC) with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC), largely due to malabsorption and/or pouch inflammation. Objectives The objective of this study was to report the frequency of iron deficiency in patients with UC who underwent RPC with IPAA and identify associated risk factors. Methods We conducted a retrospective chart review of patients with UC or IBD-unclassified who underwent RPC with IPAA at Mount Sinai Hospital between 2008 and 2017. Patients younger than 18 years of age at the time of colectomy were excluded. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze baseline characteristics. Medians with interquartile range (IQR) were reported for continuous variables, and proportions were reported for categorical variables. Iron deficiency was defined by ferritin <30 ng/mL. Logistic regression was used to analyze unadjusted relationships between hypothesized risk factors and the outcome of iron deficiency. Results A total of 143 patients had iron studies a median of 3.0 (IQR 1.7-5.6) years after final surgical stage, of whom 73 (51.0%) were men. The median age was 33.5 (IQR 22.7-44.3) years. Iron deficiency was diagnosed in 80 (55.9%) patients with a median hemoglobin of 12.4 g/dL (IQR 10.9-13.3), ferritin of 14 ng/mL (IQR 9.0-23.3), and iron value of 44 μg/dL (IQR 26.0-68.8). Of these, 29 (36.3%) had a pouchoscopy performed within 3 months of iron deficiency diagnosis. Pouchitis and cuffitis were separately noted in 4 (13.8%) and 13 (44.8%) patients, respectively, and concomitant pouchitis-cuffitis was noted in 9 (31.0%) patients. Age, sex, anastomosis type, pouch duration, and history of pouchitis and/or cuffitis were not associated with iron deficiency. Conclusion Iron deficiency is common after RPC with IPAA in patients with UC. Cuffitis is seen in the majority of patients with iron deficiency; however, iron deficiency may occur even in the absence of inflammation.

Abstract
Infliximab (IFX) concentrations are a predictive factor (PF) of pharmacokinetic (PK) origin in the treatment of Crohn's disease (CD). We evaluated Clearance, another PF of PK origin, either alone or in combination with concentrations. They were evaluated from two cohorts, the first designed to receive standard dosing (n = 37), and the second designed to proactively target therapeutic IFX concentrations (n = 108). Concentrations were measured using homogeneous mobility shift assay. Clearance was estimated using the nonlinear mixed effects methods with Bayesian priors. C-reactive protein-based clinical remission (<3 mg/L in the absence of symptoms) was used for the disease control outcome measure. Longitudinal changes in disease control due to factors including time, IFX concentration, and Clearance were analyzed using repeated event analysis. Change in objective function value (∆OFV) was calculated to compare concentration and Clearance. The results indicated that lower baseline Clearance and proactive dosing associated with enhanced disease control during induction (p < 0.01). Higher IFX concentrations and lower Clearance measured at the second, third, and fourth infusion yielded improved disease control during maintenance (p < 0.032). During maintenance, the association with disease control was better with Clearance than with concentrations (∆OFV = -19.2; p < 0.001), and the combination of both further minimized OFV (p < 0.001) with markedly improved clinical yield in the presence of both PF of PK origin. We conclude that the combination of IFX concentration and Clearance are better predictors of therapeutic outcome compared with either one alone.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tofacitinib is an oral small molecule Janus kinase inhibitor for the treatment of ulcerative colitis. We report health-related quality of life (HRQoL) outcomes in patients with ulcerative colitis in the phase 3 open-label, long-term extension study, OCTAVE Open. METHODS The Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ), EuroQoL-5 Dimensions Health Questionnaire, and 36-Item Short Form Survey scores were analyzed up to month (M) 72 in 4 subpopulations: patients in remission at baseline (maintenance remitters) assigned tofacitinib 5 mg twice daily and patients not in remission at baseline (maintenance nonremitters, maintenance treatment failures, and induction nonresponders [IndNRs]) assigned tofacitinib 10 mg twice daily in OCTAVE Open. Data were analyzed overall and stratified by corticosteroid use at baseline, prior tumor necrosis factor inhibitor failure, and prior immunosuppressant failure. RESULTS Among maintenance remitters and nonremitters, HRQoL outcomes were maintained up to M72: 80.0% and 100.0% of patients had an IBDQ total score ≥170, respectively. At baseline, 7.4% of maintenance treatment failures had an IBDQ total score ≥170, and this increased to 54.3% and 75.0% at M2 and M72, respectively. Corresponding values for IndNRs were 22.6%, 51.0%, and 86.0%. HRQoL outcomes were independent of treatment history. Among patients not in remission at baseline, improvement in EuroQoL-5 Dimensions Health Questionnaire and 36-Item Short Form Survey scores was maintained or achieved by M2, and steady to M72 or M33, with maintenance treatment failures and IndNR subpopulations undergoing the biggest improvements from baseline. CONCLUSIONS A continued favorable impact on HRQoL was revealed with long-term tofacitinib treatment in OCTAVE Open, regardless of baseline remission status or treatment history.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Communicating Needs and Features of IBD Experiences (CONFIDE) study aimed to evaluate the experience and impact of ulcerative colitis (UC) symptoms on patients' lives and elucidate gaps in communication between patients and health care professionals (HCPs). METHODS Online, quantitative, cross-sectional surveys of patients with moderate-to-severe UC and HCPs responsible for making prescribing decisions were conducted in the United States (US) and Europe. UC disease severity was defined by treatment, steroid use, and/or hospitalization history. RESULTS Surveys were completed by 200 US and 556 European patients and 200 US and 503 European HCPs. The most common UC symptoms experienced in the preceding month were diarrhea, bowel urgency, and increased stool frequency. Many patients (45.0% of US patients, 37.0% of European patients) reported wearing diapers/pads/protection at least once a week in the past 3 months due to fear/anticipation of fecal urge incontinence. The top reasons for declining participation in social events, work/school, and sports/exercise were due to bowel urgency and fear of fecal urge incontinence. HCPs ranked diarrhea, blood in stool, and increased stool frequency as the most common symptoms. While over half HCPs ranked bowel urgency as a top symptom affecting patients' lives, less than a quarter ranked it in the top 3 most impactful on treatment decisions. CONCLUSIONS Similar disparities exist between patient and HCP perceptions in the United States and Europe on the experience and impact of UC symptoms. Bowel urgency has a substantial and similar impact on US and European patients, is underappreciated by HCPs, and should be addressed during routine appointments.

Abstract
AIM Rates of pouch failure after total proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) range from 5% to 18%. There is little consistency across studies regarding the factors associated with failure, and most include patients who underwent IPAA in the pre-biologic era. Our aim was to analyse a cohort of patients who underwent IPAA in the biologic era at a large-volume inflammatory bowel disease institution to better determine preoperative, perioperative and postoperative factors associated with pouch failure. METHODS A retrospective cohort analysis was performed with data from an institutional review board approved prospective database with ulcerative colitis or unclassified inflammatory bowel disease patients who underwent total proctocolectomy with IPAA at Mount Sinai Hospital between 2008 and 2017. Preoperative, perioperative and postoperative data were collected and univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify factors associated with increased risk of pouch failure. RESULTS Out of 664 patients included in the study, pouch failure occurred in 41 (6.2%) patients, a median of 23.3 months after final surgical stage. Of these, 17 (41.4%) underwent pouch excision and 24 (58.5%) had diverting ileostomies. The most common indications for pouch failure were Crohn's disease like pouch inflammation (CDLPI) (n = 17, 41.5%), chronic pouchitis (n = 6, 14.6%), chronic cuffitis (n = 5, 12.2%) and anastomotic stricture (n = 4, 9.8%). On multivariate analysis, pre-colectomy biologic use (hazard ratio [HR] 2.25, 95% CI 1.09-4.67), CDLPI (HR 3.18, 95% CI 1.49-6.76) and pouch revision (HR 2.59, 95% CI 1.26-5.32) were significantly associated with pouch failure. CONCLUSIONS Pouch failure was significantly associated with CDLPI, preoperative biologic use and pouch revision; however, reassuringly it was not associated with postoperative complications.

Abstract
Background Many patient-reported outcomes (PROs) have been developed for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) without recommendations for clinical use. PROs differ from physician-reported disease activity indices; they assess patients' perceptions of their symptoms, functional status, mental health, and quality of life, among other areas. We sought to investigate the current global use and barriers to using PROs in clinical practice for IBD. Methods A cross-sectional survey was performed. An electronic questionnaire was sent to an international group of providers who care for patients with IBD. Results There were 194 respondents, including adult/pediatric gastroenterologists, advanced practice providers, and colorectal surgeons from 5 continents. The majority (80%) use PROs in clinical practice, 65% frequently found value in routine use, and 50% frequently found PROs influenced management. Thirty-one different PROs for IBD were reportedly used. Barriers included not being familiar with PROs, not knowing how to incorporate PRO results into clinical practice, lack of electronic medical record integration, and time constraints. Most (91%) agreed it would be beneficial to have an accepted set of consistently used PROs. The majority (60%) thought that there should be some cultural differences in PROs used globally but that PROs for IBD should be consistent around the world. Conclusions PROs are used frequently in clinical practice with wide variation in which are used and how they influence management. Education about PROs and how to use and interpret an accepted set of PROs would decrease barriers for use and allow for global harmonization.

Abstract
PURPOSE The most common surgery for ulcerative colitis (UC) is the staged restorative proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA). On occasion, an emergent first-stage subtotal colectomy must be performed. The purpose of this study was to compare rates of postoperative complications in three-stage IPAA patients who underwent emergent vs non-emergent first-stage subtotal colectomies in the subsequent staged procedures. METHODS This was a retrospective chart review conducted at a single tertiary care inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) center. All UC or IBD-Unspecified patients who underwent a three-stage IPAA between 2008 and 2017 were identified. Emergent surgery was defined as that performed on an inpatient who had perforation, toxic megacolon, uncontrolled hemorrhage, or septic shock. The primary outcomes were the presence of anastomotic leak, obstruction, bleeding, and the need for reoperation for each within a 6-month postoperative period of the second (RPC with IPAA and DLI) and third surgical stages (ileostomy reversal). RESULTS A total of 342 patients underwent a three-stage IPAA, of which 30 (9.4%) had emergent first-stage operations. Patients who underwent an emergent STC were more likely to have a post-operative anastomotic leak and need an additional procedure following the subsequent second and third-staged operations on both univariate and multivariate analysis (p < 0.05). No difference was found for obstruction, wound infection, intra-abdominal abscess, or bleeding (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION Three-stage IPAA patients with emergent first-stage subtotal colectomies were more likely to have a post-operative anastomotic leak and need an additional procedure for a leak following the subsequent second- and third-stage operations.

Abstract
Background Ulcerative colitis (UC) can result in a high prevalence of bowel movement urgency (BU), significantly reducing patient quality of life. Purpose Early BU improvement association with later clinical endpoint improvements was examined in moderately-to-severely active UC patients (pts) treated with mirikizumab (miri). Method BU was evaluated in Phase 3 randomized placebo (PBO)-controlled 12-week induction (LUCENT-1, NCT03518086) and 40-week maintenance (LUCENT-2, NCT03524092) trials with miri. Pts received IV miri 300mg or PBO during induction. Week (W)12 miri responders were rerandomized at LUCENT-2 baseline (BL) to subcutaneous miri 200mg or PBO. BU was measured with 11-point Urgency Numeric Rating Scale (UNRS) from 0 (no urgency) to 10 (worst possible). Pts’ UNRS scores were an average from 7 consecutive days prior to visit. Association of pts with BU Clinically Meaningful Improvement (CMI) or BU remission between BL and W4 with the proportion of pts achieving clinical response, and clinical, endoscopic, or symptomatic remission at end of W12 was assessed. For pts who achieved clinical response at W12, the analyses were repeated for the end of maintenance based on W12 BU status. Logistic regression models with treatment, urgency (BU CMI or BU Remission), treatment-by-urgency group interaction, and stratification factors were fitted to examine the association between early urgency improvement and later clinical endpoints. Result(s) Treatment-by-urgency group interactions were not statistically significant across clinical outcomes for induction and maintenance. For induction, treatment and urgency status were statistically significant. Pts experiencing BU CMI or BU remission at W4 were consistently more likely to achieve clinical response, and clinical, endoscopic, or symptomatic remission at W12 for both treatment groups. For remission, only treatment main effect was statistically significant. Among miri induction clinical responders (an enriched population), BU CMI or BU Remission at end of induction (W12) was not associated with later maintenance efficacy outcomes (W52). Miri-treated pts achieved higher rates of clinical response, and clinical, endoscopic, or symptomatic remission at W52 than with PBO regardless of BU CMI or BU Remission at W12 (Table). Image ![]()
Conclusion(s) Early BU Improvement, CMI or Remission, was associated with better clinical outcomes during induction for miri and PBO pts, showing BU is a sensitive predictor of early clinical outcomes. Among miri induction responders, miri consistently provided better maintenance of response and remission rates than PBO.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Moderate to severe ulcerative colitis (UC) exerts a significant burden on patients’ lives. Patients with UC report that bowel urgency has a substantial negative impact on their quality of life and psychosocial functioning, however, this symptom is missing from most disease activity indices.
Purpose
The Communicating Needs and Features of IBD Experiences (CONFIDE) study aims to increase understanding of the impact of symptoms, including bowel urgency, on the lives of patients (pts) with moderate to severe UC and Crohn’s disease in the United States (US), Europe (EUR), and Japan. These data focus on pts in the US and EUR.
Method
Online, quantitative, cross-sectional surveys of pts with moderate to severe UC were conducted in the US and EUR (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and UK). Data included pt perspectives on their UC symptoms and the impact on their daily lives. Moderate to severe UC was defined based on treatment, steroid use, and/or hospitalization history. Descriptive statistics summarise the data.
Result(s)
200 US pts (62% male, mean age 40.4 years) and 556 EUR pts (57% male, mean age 38.9 years) completed the survey, with 77% and 54% currently receiving advanced therapies (biologic or novel oral therapy), respectively. The top 3 symptoms currently (past month) experienced by US and EUR pts were diarrhoea (63% and 50%), bowel urgency (47% and 30%) and increased stool frequency (39% and 30%). In past 3 months, pts who have ever experienced bowel urgency or urge incontinence reported bowel urgency (93% US, 89% EUR) and urge incontinence (86% US, 71% EUR) at least once a month (Table). 69% and 65% of all US and EUR pts, respectively, reported wearing a diaper/pad/protection at least once a month in the past 3 months due to fear/anticipation of urge incontinence. For pts receiving advanced therapies, similar patterns were observed. Among both US and EUR pts, the most common UC-related reasons for declining participation in social events were bowel urgency (43% and 30%) and fear of urge incontinence (40% and 32%). Similarly, the most common reasons for declining participation in work/school and sports/physical exercise were bowel urgency and fear of urge incontinence.
Image
Conclusion(s)
Bowel urgency, which was the second-most frequently reported symptom, has an extensive impact on the lives of pts with moderate to severe UC. In this younger pt population, including pts receiving advanced therapies, almost two thirds of US and EUR pts reported wearing diapers/pads/protection at least once a month in the past 3 months due to fear/anticipation of urge incontinence. Both US and EUR pts reported bowel urgency and fear of urge incontinence as the top reasons for declining participation in social events, work/school, and sports/physical exercise.

Abstract
Background The Communicating Needs and Features of IBD Experiences (CONFIDE) study aims to increase understanding of the impact of symptoms on patients with moderate to severe UC and Crohn’s disease and to investigate gaps in communication with healthcare professionals (HCPs) in the United States (US), Europe (EUR), and Japan. Purpose This report focuses on patients with moderate to severe UC and HCPs from the US and EUR. Method Online, quantitative, cross-sectional surveys of patients with UC and HCPs were conducted in the US and EUR (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and UK). HCP surveys included physicians and non-physician HCPs responsible for making prescribing decisions. Moderate to severe UC was defined based on treatment, steroid use, and/or hospitalization history. Data collected included perspectives on the experience of patients with UC. Result(s) A total of 200 US (62% male, mean age 40.4 years) and 556 EUR patients (57% male, mean age 38.9 years), and 200 US and 503 EUR HCPs completed the survey. According to US and EUR patients, the top 3 symptoms currently (past month) experienced were diarrhoea (63% and 50%), bowel urgency (47% and 30%) and increased stool frequency (39% and 30%). Blood in stool was reported as currently experienced by 27% and 24% of US and EUR patients, respectively. Among patients currently experiencing bowel urgency, 47% of US and 27% of EUR patients discuss this symptom at every appointment. Among those who do not discuss bowel urgency at every appointment, 74% and 75% of US and EUR patients would like to discuss this symptom more frequently with their HCP. A total of 30% and 43% of US and EUR patients that ever experienced bowel urgency were not comfortable reporting it to their HCP, with 62% and 58% of these US and EUR patients feeling embarrassed talking about this symptom (Table). HCPs in both the US and EUR ranked diarrhoea (74% and 65%), blood in stool (69% and 65%) and increased stool frequency (38% and 34%) as the top 3 symptoms most reported by patients. According to US and EUR HCPs, the top 4 symptoms proactively discussed in routine appointments were blood in stool (93% and 94%), diarrhoea (90% and 91%), increased stool frequency (82% and 82%) and bowel urgency (76% and 82%). Among HCPs who did not proactively discuss bowel urgency, 47% of US and 40% of EUR HCPs expect patients to bring this up if it is an issue. Image ![]()
Conclusion(s) Communication gaps were similar between US and EUR patients and HCPs. Bowel urgency is the second-most reported symptom by patients with moderate to severe UC. However, this symptom is not among the HCP-perceived top 3 most reported symptoms. Although a substantial proportion of patients reported a desire to discuss bowel urgency more frequently with their HCP, some patients reported feeling embarrassed talking about it. Many HCPs who do not proactively discuss this symptom expect patients to bring this up. A communication gap was identified and highlights the under-appreciation of bowel urgency as an important symptom of UC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Etrasimod, a once-daily, oral, sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) receptor modulator that selectively activates S1P receptor subtypes 1, 4, and 5, with no detectable activity on S1P2,3, is in development for the treatment of immune-mediated diseases, including ulcerative colitis. In these two phase 3 trials, we aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of etrasimod in adult patients with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis. METHODS In two independent randomised, multicentre, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 trials, ELEVATE UC 52 and ELEVATE UC 12, adults with active moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis and an inadequate or loss of response or intolerance to at least one approved ulcerative colitis therapy were randomly assigned (2:1) to once-daily oral etrasimod 2 mg or placebo. Patients in ELEVATE UC 52 were enrolled from 315 centres in 40 countries. Patients in ELEVATE UC 12 were enrolled from 407 centres in 37 countries. Randomisation was stratified by previous exposure to biologicals or Janus kinase inhibitor therapy (yes vs no), baseline corticosteroid use (yes vs no), and baseline disease activity (modified Mayo score [MMS]; 4-6 vs 7-9). ELEVATE UC 52 comprised a 12-week induction period followed by a 40-week maintenance period with a treat-through design. ELEVATE UC 12 independently assessed induction at week 12. The primary efficacy endpoints were the proportion of patients with clinical remission at weeks 12 and 52 in ELEVATE UC 52 and week 12 in ELEVATE UC 12. Safety was evaluated in both trials. ELEVATE UC 52 and ELEVATE UC 12 were registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03945188 and NCT03996369, respectively. FINDINGS Patients in ELEVATE UC 52 were enrolled between June 13, 2019, and Jan 28, 2021. Patients in ELEVATE UC 12 were enrolled between Sept 15, 2020, and Aug 12, 2021. ELEVATE UC 52 and ELEVATE UC 12 screened 821 patients and 606 patients, respectively, with 433 and 354 subsequently undergoing random assignment. The full analysis set of ELEVATE UC 52 comprised 289 patients assigned to etrasimod and 144 to placebo. In ELEVATE UC 12, 238 patients were assigned to etrasimod and 116 to placebo. In ELEVATE UC 52, a significantly greater proportion of patients in the etrasimod group achieved clinical remission compared with patients in the placebo group at completion of the 12-week induction period (74 [27%] of 274 patients vs ten [7%] of 135 patients; p<0·0001) and at week 52 (88 [32%] of 274 patients vs nine [7%] of 135 patients; p<0·0001). In ELEVATE UC 12, 55 (25%) of 222 patients in the etrasimod group had clinical remission compared with 17 (15%) of 112 patients in the placebo group at the end of the 12-week induction period (p=0·026). Adverse events were reported in 206 (71%) of 289 patients in the etrasimod group and 81 (56%) of 144 patients in the placebo group in ELEVATE UC 52 and 112 (47%) of 238 patients in the etrasimod group and 54 (47%) of 116 patients in the placebo group in ELEVATE UC 12. No deaths or malignancies were reported. INTERPRETATION Etrasimod was effective and well tolerated as an induction and maintenance therapy in patients with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis. Etrasimod is a treatment option with a unique combination of attributes that might address the persistent unmet needs of patients with ulcerative colitis. FUNDING Arena Pharmaceuticals.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are at an increased risk of malnutrition. The goal of this study was to define the prevalence of malnutrition and micronutrient deficiencies in recently diagnosed IBD patients and to compare the performance of existing malnutrition screening tools in identifying IBD patients at increased risk for malnutrition. METHODS This was a retrospective cohort study of adult patients with recently diagnosed IBD (≤18 months disease duration). A diagnosis of malnutrition was made utilizing the European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism malnutrition criteria. Serum micronutrient levels were included. The sensitivity of 5 malnutrition screening tools in identifying patients at moderate-high risk of malnutrition was determined based on the European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism malnutrition definition. Descriptive statistics summarized the data and univariate analyses tested associations. RESULTS A total of 182 patients were included for analysis; 65 (36%) met criteria for malnutrition. A total of 135 (74%) patients had ≥1 micronutrient level checked and 105 (78%) had ≥1 deficiency. Patients with prior surgery (odds ratio [OR], 4.5; P = .004), active Crohn's disease (OR, 2.8; P = .03), and diarrhea (OR, 2.1; P = .02) were more likely to be malnourished. The Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool and Saskatchewan IBD Nutrition Risk Tool had the highest sensitivity (100%) in predicting those at moderate-high risk of malnutrition at the time of screening. CONCLUSIONS Patients with recently diagnosed IBD have a high prevalence of malnutrition and micronutrient deficiencies. Both the Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool and Saskatchewan IBD Nutrition Risk Tool can be used to identify those at increased risk of malnutrition. Future studies and screening tool development are necessary to identify those at risk of developing malnutrition to facilitate timely referral for nutritional evaluation and prevent disease related complications.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Exposure-outcome relationship data show that higher infliximab concentrations are associated with better outcomes in patients with Crohn's disease (CD). However, most of these data were derived from adult patients on maintenance therapy. We aimed to investigate the association of infliximab concentrations during and early after induction therapy of infliximab with short-term and long-term clinical outcomes in a pediatric CD population. METHODS We conducted a post hoc analysis of the REACH trial which included pediatric patients with moderate-to-severe CD treated with infliximab (n = 103). The investigated outcomes were early clinical remission (CR) defined as a pediatric CD activity index score of ≤ 10, assessed at week 10, and long-term clinical response (LTCR) defined as a decrease from baseline in the pediatric CD activity index score of at least 15 points, with a total score of ≤ 30 and no need for drug discontinuation, assessed at weeks 30 and 54. RESULTS Based on multivariable logistic regression analysis, higher week 10 infliximab concentrations were independently associated with CR at week 10 (odds ratio: 1.54; 95% confidence interval: 1.06-2.22; P = 0.022) and LTCR at week 30 (odds ratio: 1.62; 95% confidence interval: 1.12-2.36; P = 0.010). Receiver operating characteristic analysis identified week 10 infliximab concentration thresholds of ≥7.1 μg/mL and ≥6.5 μg/mL to be associated with CR at week 10 and LTCR at week 30, respectively. DISCUSSION Higher postinduction infliximab concentrations are associated with both short-term and long-term favorable clinical outcomes in pediatric patients with CD. Tailoring dosing during induction to achieve higher infliximab exposure may lead to better outcomes in pediatric patients with CD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Mirikizumab, a monoclonal antibody targeting the interleukin-23 p19 subunit, was effective in a Phase 2 study (NCT02589665) of moderately-to-severely active ulcerative colitis (UC). We studied mirikizumab's impact on health-related quality of life (HRQoL). DESIGN HRQoL was evaluated using the Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ) and 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) Physical Component Score (PCS) and Mental Component Score (MCS). Mixed effects models for repeated measures compared score changes between mirikizumab and placebo groups. Additional analyses evaluated associations between HRQoL score changes and achievement of efficacy endpoints at weeks 12 and 52. RESULTS At week 12, IBDQ improved compared with placebo for all mirikizumab groups except mirikizumab 50 mg (50 mg, p=0.073; 200 mg, p<0.001; 600 mg, p<0.001). SF-36 PCS was significantly higher in all mirikizumab groups at week 12 (50 mg, p=0.011; 200 mg, p=0.022; 600 mg, p=0.002); MCS was significantly higher in mirikizumab 200 and 600 mg groups compared with placebo (50 mg, p=0.429; 200 mg, p=0.028; 600 mg, p<0.001). Achievement of clinical response and remission were associated with greater HRQoL improvements at week 12. Improvements in HRQoL scores were sustained through week 52. Of the clinical symptoms evaluated, reduction in rectal bleeding was associated with greater improvements in IBDQ and SF-36 scores. CONCLUSION Mirikizumab improved HRQoL in patients with moderately-to-severely active UC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) often report impaired health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Tofacitinib is an oral small molecule Janus kinase inhibitor for the treatment of UC. In addition to previous demonstrations of improved clinical measures (e.g., Mayo score), tofacitinib has been shown to improve HRQoL in patients with UC. This analysis explored the interrelationships among tofacitinib treatment, HRQoL, and disease activity (measured using Mayo subscores) using mediation modeling. METHODS Data were collected from two 8-week induction studies (OCTAVE Induction 1 and 2) in patients with moderate to severe UC treated with tofacitinib or placebo. Two mediation models were specified. First, Mayo subscores were mediators between the binary treatment variable (tofacitinib vs placebo) and the eight Short Form-36 Health Survey (SF 36) domain scores as outcomes. Second, the four Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ) domain scores served as outcomes. Both models used data collected at Week 8. RESULTS Overall, 1073 and 1079 patients were included in the SF-36- and IBDQ-based models, respectively. For all SF-36 domains, improvements in Mayo subscores were estimated to explain 65.6% (bodily pain) to 92.9% (mental health) of the total treatment effect on SF-36 domain scores (all p<0.05). For all IBDQ domains, improvements in Mayo subscores explained 71.6% (systemic symptoms) to 84.7% (emotional function) of the total treatment effect (all p<0.05). CONCLUSION Mayo scores and Mayo subscores are significant but incomplete contributors to tofacitinib's effect on HRQoL in patients with moderate to severe UC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Crohn's disease requires effective patient-clinician communication for successful illness and medication management. Shared decision making (SDM) has been suggested to improve communication around early intensive therapy. However, effective evidence-based SDM interventions for Crohn's disease are lacking, and the impact of SDM on Crohn's disease decision making and choice of therapy is unclear. AIM To test the impact of SDM on choice of therapy, quality of the decision and provider trust compared to standard Crohn's disease care. METHODS We conducted a multi-site cluster randomised controlled trial in 14 diverse gastroenterology practices in the US. RESULTS A total of 158 adult patients with Crohn's disease within 15 years of their diagnosis, with no prior Crohn's disease complications, and who were candidates to receive immunomodulators or biologics, participated in the study. Among these, 99 received the intervention and 59 received standard care. Demographics were similar between groups, although there were more women assigned to standard care, and a slightly shorter disease duration among those in the intervention group. Participants in the intervention group more frequently chose combination therapy (25% versus 5% control, p < 0.001), had a significantly lower decisional conflict (p < 0.05) and had greater trust in their provider (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS With rapidly expanding medication choices for Crohn's disease and slow uptake of early intensive therapy, SDM can personalise treatment strategies and has the potential to move the field of Crohn's disease management forward with an ultimate goal of consistently treating this disease early and intensively in appropriate patients.

Abstract
Purpose Achieving and maintaining symptom control is a key treatment goal in ulcerative colitis (UC). Bowel urgency is an important symptom of UC, thus measurement of urgency is critical. This research explored the patient experience of UC and "remission" in UC, with a focus on urgency, and cognitively debriefed the Urgency Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), including score interpretation and examination of meaningful improvement. Patients and Methods Semi-structured hybrid concept elicitation and cognitive debriefing interviews with adults with moderately-severely active UC were conducted to explore experiences of UC and urgency, as well as examine meaningful improvement and score interpretation of the Urgency NRS. Purposive sampling was used to identify 20 eligible adult participants with UC. Concept elicitation data were analyzed using thematic analysis, and a deductive approach was used to analyze cognitive debriefing data. Thematic analysis was also applied to meaningful change-related data. Results Twenty participants were interviewed (average age = 42.6 years old, 50% male); 14 with moderately active (70.0%) and 6 with severely active UC (30.0%). Disease remission was not consistently defined by participants and description varied in terms of definition (absence vs not complete absence of symptoms), duration (months vs days) and key symptoms to consider. Urgency was a prominent symptom for all participants, with 8 (40.0%) identifying it as the most bothersome aspect of UC. No issues were identified with the Urgency NRS. Participants were able to define different levels of urgency severity, describe how they relate to daily life impacts, and score them differently on the Urgency NRS. Participants were also able to reflect urgency improvement on the NRS and discuss how small changes in numeric ratings of urgency can reflect meaningful change in the symptom burden of their UC. Conclusion The Urgency NRS is a content valid and interpretable measure to assess bowel urgency severity.

Abstract
Background Bowel urgency reduces ulcerative colitis patients' quality of life. Mirikizumab, a p19-directed anti-IL-23 antibody, demonstrates ulcerative colitis efficacy. Mirikizumab efficacy to reduce bowel urgency and bowel urgency association with other endpoints were analyzed in 2 Phase 3 trials. Methods LUCENT-1 (Induction): 1162 patients randomized 3:1 to intravenous 300 mg mirikizumab or placebo every 4 weeks for 12 weeks. LUCENT-2 (Maintenance): 544 mirikizumab responders during induction were re-randomized 2:1 to subcutaneous mirikizumab 200 mg or placebo every 4 weeks for 40 weeks (52 weeks of continuous treatment). Bowel urgency was measured using the Urgency Numeric Rating Scale (0-10); for patients with LUCENT-1 baseline score ≥3, bowel urgency clinically meaningful improvement (≥3-point decrease) and remission (score ≤1) rates in mirikizumab versus placebo groups were compared at Weeks 12 and 52. Associations between bowel urgency and other efficacy endpoints were assessed at Weeks 12 and 52. Results A significantly higher proportion of mirikizumab patients versus placebo achieved clinically meaningful improvement in bowel urgency and remission at Weeks 12 and 52. Significantly higher percentages of patients achieving bowel urgency clinically meaningful improvement or remission, compared with those who did not, also achieved endpoints for clinical, corticosteroid-free, endoscopic, and symptomatic remission; clinical response; normalized fecal calprotectin and C-reactive protein; and improved quality of life. Conclusions In patients with ulcerative colitis, bowel urgency improvement was associated with better clinical outcomes than in patients without improvement during induction and maintenance. A greater proportion of mirikizumab patients achieved sustainable bowel urgency improvement and remission compared to placebo patients.

Abstract
Background The Urgency Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) was developed as a content-valid single-item patient-reported outcome measure to assess severity of bowel urgency. Here, we evaluated the psychometric properties of the Urgency NRS. Methods Data were from a multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled phase 3 trial in adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (NCT03518086). Patients completed the Urgency NRS using a daily electronic diary, from which weekly average Urgency NRS scores were calculated. Test–retest reliability, known-groups validity, construct validity, responsiveness, and score interpretation were assessed using the modified Mayo score, Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ), Patient Global Rating of Severity (PGRS), Patient Global Rating of Change (PGRC), and Geboes score. Results The study sample comprised 1,162 participants (40.2% female). Mean Urgency NRS score was higher (worse) at baseline than at week 12 (6.2 vs. 3.7). Test–retest reliability was strong, with intra-class correlation coefficients of 0.76–0.89. Baseline least-square mean Urgency NRS score was higher for participants with a PGRS score greater than the median (worse symptoms) than for those with a PGRS score less than or equal to the median (7.5 vs. 5.4; p < 0.0001), indicating good known-groups validity. Urgency NRS score was moderately correlated with IBDQ total and domain scores, PGRS, PGRC, and modified Mayo stool frequency, establishing its convergent validity. Correlations were weak for Geboes score and weak to moderate for modified Mayo endoscopic subscore and modified Mayo rectal bleeding, indicating that the Urgency NRS also had discriminant validity. Patients achieving clinical remission, clinical response, IBDQ remission, and PGRS score improvement showed significantly greater improvement on the Urgency NRS (p < 0.0001 for all), demonstrating responsiveness to change. A ≥ 3-point improvement in Urgency NRS score represented a meaningful improvement in bowel urgency and an Urgency NRS score of ≤ 1 point represented a bowel urgency remission threshold that was closely associated with clinical, endoscopic, and histologic remission. Conclusions The Urgency NRS is a valid and reliable patient-reported outcome measure that is suitable for evaluating treatment benefits in clinical trials in patients with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tofacitinib is an oral small molecule JAK inhibitor for the treatment of UC. We evaluated the relationship between Mayo/Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ) scores and Work Productivity and Activity ImpairmentUC (WPAI-UC) components in patients with UC. METHODS All available pooled data from three Phase 3 tofacitinib studies (OCTAVE Induction 1&2 and OCTAVE Sustain) were included. Relationships were estimated using repeated measures regression models with Mayo score/subscores or IBDQ total/domain scores as a separate anchor predictor and WPAI-UC components as the outcome. RESULTS Evidence for linear relationships was confirmed between Mayo/IBDQ scores and WPAI-UC components. Robust relationships between total Mayo score/IBDQ total score and WPAI-UC presenteeism, work productivity loss, and activity impairment were observed; relationships with absenteeism were weak. Total Mayo scores of 0 and 12 corresponded, on average, to WPAI-UC component scores of <15% and ≥60%, respectively, and IBDQ total scores of 224 and 32 corresponded, on average, to WPAIUC component scores of <6% and ≥90%, respectively. Presenteeism, work productivity loss, and activity impairment (all 0-100%), respectively, improved on average by 14.7, 13.6, and 16.4 percentage points for every 3-point improvement in total Mayo score, and by 8.1, 7.9, and 8.8 percentage points for every 16-point improvement in IBDQ total score. CONCLUSION Robust relationships between Mayo/IBDQ scores with WPAI-UC presenteeism, work productivity loss, and activity impairment suggest that patient productivity and nonwork activities are strongly associated with disease activity and HRQoL. The weak relationships with absenteeism suggest that patients attend work regardless of their disease activity/poor HRQoL.
