Danese et al. showed that patients who achieved disease clearance 8 weeks after ustekinumab induction were more likely to be in long-term clinical, symptomatic and quality of life remission with ustekinumab maintenance treatment than patients who did not. Authors evaluated disease clearance in the Phase 3 UNIFI program and its association with long-term outcomes.

Results from the Phase 3 GRAVTI study by Hart et al. showed that SC induction followed by SC maintenance treatment with guselkumab resulted in superior clinical and endoscopic improvements in participants with moderately to severely active CD through 48 weeks compared with placebo. Hart et al. evaluated efficacy and safety of guselkumab SC induction followed by SC maintenance in participants with moderately to severely active CD in a    treat-through design.

Vermeire et al. provides data that supports the long-term efficacy and safety of obefazimod 50mg QD, with a substantial proportion of patients achieving clinical remission at Weeks 48 and 96. Vermeire et al. evaluated the 2-year outcome data of an OLM study, which assessed the long-term safety and efficacy of obefazimod 50mg QD.

Sands et al. evaluated tamuzimod, a selective sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 1 modulator, in patients with moderately-to-severely active UC. At Week 13, clinical remission (defined as an MMS stool frequency subscore of ≤1, rectal bleeding subscore of 0, and endoscopic subscore ≤1, excluding friability) was achieved by 28% and 24% of patients receiving tamuzimod 60 mg and 30 mg, respectively, compared with 11% in the placebo group. The treatment was well tolerated; most AEs were mild or moderate.
