This descriptive analysis indicates a long-term safety profile of UPA consistent with previous reports, further supporting long-term treatment of chronic diseases with UPA. Burmester at al. characterized the safety profile of UPA across multiple approved indications and offer insights into its long-term use to help inform clinical decision-making.

This interim analysis by Panaccione et al. supports the positive long–term risk–benefit profile for UPA 15mg and 30mg among patients with moderately to severely active UC. U–ACTIVATE is a Phase 3 LTE study evaluating the long-term safety and efficacy of UPA in patients with moderately to severely active UC who enrolled in the preceding induction and maintenance studies. Panaccione et al. reported the interim results from the U-ACTIVATE study after approximately 3 years of total treatment, showing that the risk–benefit profile of UPA in patients with moderately to severely active UC is favourable.
