Treatment of patients with UC with filgotinib 200 mg was associated with an increase in clinical remission at Week 10 and Week 58. The proportion of patients with clinical remission at Week 58 was significantly greater in patients who continued FIL 200 mg therapy throughout the trial. The incidence of TEAEs was similar across all treatment groups.

The authors highlighted a significantly greater clinical remission rate at Week 52 for vedolizumab SC versus placebo in patients with moderately to severely active CD. This study aimed to report results from VISIBLE 2 which evaluated a new SC vedolizumab formulation as maintenance treatment in adults with moderately to severely active CD.

Tofacitinib, at a dose of 10 mg twice daily, was more effective than placebo for induction of remission and mucosal healing in patients with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis. Furthermore, maintenance therapy with tofacitinib, at a dose of either 5 mg or 10 mg twice daily, was more effective than placebo in sustaining remission and mucosal healing.
