Background/Aims
The objectives of this real-world study were to determine 1-year persistence with vedolizumab in patients with ulcerative colitis and to evaluate factors contributing to loss of response.
Methods
In this multicenter, retrospective, observational chart review, patients with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis who received ≥ 1 dose of vedolizumab in clinical practice at 16 tertiary hospitals in Japan (from December 2018 through February 2020) were enrolled.
Results
Persistence with vedolizumab was 64.5% (n = 370); the median follow-up time was 53.2 weeks. Discontinuation due to loss of response among initial clinical remitters was reported in 12.5% (35/281) of patients. Multivariate analysis showed that concomitant use of tacrolimus (odds ratio [OR], 2.76; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.00–7.62; P= 0.050) and shorter disease duration (OR for median duration ≥ 7.8 years vs. < 7.8 years, 0.33; 95% CI, 0.13–0.82; P= 0.017) were associated with discontinuation due to loss of response. Loss of response was not associated with prior use of anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha therapy, age at the time of treatment, disease severity, or concomitant corticosteroids or immunomodulators. Of the 25 patients with disease duration < 1 year, 32.0% discontinued due to loss of response.
Conclusions
Persistence with vedolizumab was consistent with previous reports. Use of tacrolimus and shorter disease duration were the main predictors of decreased persistence.

<b>Background/Aims</b><br/>

Postoperative endoscopic recurrence (PER) occurs in nearly 80% of patients 1 year after ileocecal resection in patients with Crohn's disease (CD). Biological agents were more effective in reducing the rates of PER in comparison with conventional therapy, in prospective trials. The aim of this study was to compare the PER rates of biological versus conventional therapy after ileocecal resections in patients with CD in real-world practice.

Methods

The MULTIPER (Multicenter International Postoperative Endoscopic Recurrence) database is a retrospective analysis of PER rates in CD patients after ileocecal resection, from 7 referral centers in 3 different countries. All consecutive patients who underwent ileocecal resections between 2008 and 2012 and in whom colonoscopies had been performed up to 12 months after surgery, were included. Recurrence was defined as Rutgeerts' score ≥i2. The patients were allocated to either biological or conventional therapy after surgery, and PER rates were compared between the groups.

Results

Initially, 231 patients were evaluated, and 63 were excluded. Of the 168 patients in the database, 96 received anti-tumor necrosis factor agents and 72 were treated with conventional therapy after resection. The groups were comparable regarding age, gender, and perianal disease. There was longer disease duration, more previous resections, and more open surgical procedures in patients on biologicals postoperatively. PER was identified in 25/96 (26%) patients on biological therapy and in 24/72 (33.3%) patients on conventional therapy (P=0.310).

Conclusions

In this retrospective observational analysis from an international database, no difference was observed between biological and conventional therapy in preventing PER after ileocecal resections in CD patients.
