Corticosteroid-sparing effects of risankizumab efficacy and safety in patients with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis

Reinisch W, et al. report that the efficacy of RZB induction therapy is independent of CS use, with high rates of CS-free outcomes observed in the overall population and among patients with baseline CS use.

This analysis utilised data from Phase 3 INSPIRE and COMMAND studies and evaluated the CS-sparing effects of RZB in patients with moderate-to-severe UC. Results reaffirm the potential of RZB to serve as a CS-sparing therapy for patients with UC.
