Abstract Background There is lack of real-world data for disease behavior and surgery of Crohn’s disease (CD) from large-scale Chinese cohorts. Methods Hospitalized patients diagnosed with CD in our center were consecutively included from January 2000 to December 2018. Disease behavior progression was defined as the initial classification of B1 to the progression to B2 or B3. Clinical characteristics including demographics, disease classification and activity, medical therapy, development of cancers, and death were collected. Results Overall, 504 patients were included. Two hundred and thirty one (45.8%) patients were initially classified as B1; 30 (13.0%), 71 (30.7%), and 95 (41.1%) of them had disease progression at the 1-year follow-up, 5-year follow-up, and overall, respectively. Patients without location transition before behavior transition were less likely to experience behavior progression. However, patients without previous exposure to a corticosteroid, immunomodulator, or biological agent had a greater chance of experiencing behavior progression. When the long-term prognosis was evaluated, 211 (41.9%) patients underwent at least one CD-related surgery; 108 (21.4%) and 120 (23.8%) of these patients underwent surgery before and after their diagnosis, respectively. An initial classification as B1, no behavior transition, no surgery prior to diagnosis, and previous corticosteroid exposure during follow-up were associated with a lower risk of undergoing surgery. Conclusions This study depicts the clinical features and factors associated with behavior progression and surgery among hospitalized CD patients in a Chinese center. Behavior progression is associated with a higher probability of CD-related surgery, and strengthened therapies are necessary for them in the early phase.

Abstract Background The IL-12/23 inhibitor ustekinumab (UST) opened up new treatment options for patients with Crohn’s disease (CD). Due to the recent approval, Real-World German data on long-term efficacy and safety are lacking. This study aimed to assess the clinical course of CD patients under UST therapy and to identify potential predictive markers. Methods Patients with CD receiving UST treatment in three hospitals and two outpatient centres were included and retrospectively analysed. Rates for short- and long-term remission and response were analysed with the help of clinical (Harvey–Bradshaw Index [HBI]) and biochemical (C-reactive protein [CRP], faecal calprotectin [fCal]) parameters for disease activity. Results Data from 180 patients were evaluated. One hundred six patients had a follow-up of at least 8 weeks and were included. 96.2% of the patients were pre-exposed to anti- TNFα agents and 34.4% to both anti-TNFα and anti-integrin. The median follow-up was 49.1 weeks (95% CI 42.03–56.25). At week 8, 51 patients (54.8%) showed response to UST, and 24 (24.7%) were in remission. At week 48, 39 (41.9%) responded to UST, and 20 patients (21.5%) were in remission. Steroid-free response and remission at week eight were achieved by 30.1%, and 19.3% of patients. At week 48, 26.9% showed steroid-free response to UST, and 15.1% of the initial patient population was in steroid-free remission. Clinical response at week 16 was independently associated with remission at week 48. Conclusion Our study confirms short- and long-term UST effectiveness and tolerability in a cohort of multi-treatment exposed patients.

Abstract Background: The clinical spectrum and disease course of Crohn’s disease (CD) are heterogeneous and difficult to predict based on initial presentation. Aim: To analyze the long-term disease course and factors leading to poor prognosis of the disease.Methods: In total, 112 patients with CD who were initially diagnosed or treated at our institution were included. We analyzed their clinical data, disease characteristics according to Montreal classification, endoscopic and computed tomography (CT) examinations at initial visit, and 2-year, 5-year, and last follow-ups. We categorized the long-term disease course into four categories: remission, stable, chronic refractory, and chronic relapsing. Significant factors associated with a poorer prognosis were analyzed.Results: The median follow-up period was 107 (range, 61-139) months. Complicated disease behavior increased slightly (20.5% to 26.2%). Chronic refractory (19.6%) and relapsing (16.1%) courses were defined as unfavorable disease course. Two-year disease characteristics were significant factors for unfavorable disease course, and the combination of 2-year perianal disease and 2-year moderate-to-severe CT activity could predict unfavorable disease course with the highest accuracy (0.722, area under the curve 0.768, p<.0001). Conclusions: One-third of our CD patients showed an unfavorable disease course (35.7%) and 2-year disease characteristics were significant factors for an unfavorable disease course.

Abstract Background Vedolizumab (VDZ) has demonstrated remission in ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn’s disease (CD), but its impact on patient (pt) fatigue is not well understood. Herein we report interim fatigue analysis data from a Belgian registry of VDZ-treated pts. Methods Ad-hoc analysis from the prospective observational Belgian VDZ registry (started, November 2016; data cutoff, February 2019), a sub-study of the European VDZ post-authorization safety study (ENcePP EUPAS6469) included pts aged ≥18 years with UC or CD with ongoing VDZ intravenous therapy (≥2 weeks) at recruitment. At baseline (recruitment) and every 6 months, physicians collected data (follow-up was 3 years or 1 year after last dose if VDZ was discontinued [whichever occurred first] and pts completed the 13-Item Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue (FACIT-F) scale. Clinical remission was defined as Harvey-Bradshaw Index (HBI) score &lt;5 for CD, and partial Mayo score (pMS) &lt;2 with no individual subscore &gt;1 for UC. This analysis explored the association (using generalized estimating equations) between all available FACIT-F total scores and baseline demographic, clinical, and treatment characteristics in the treatment analysis set (TAS; pts had ≥1 VDZ dose and ≥1 year of follow-up records). Results The registry enrolled 202 VDZ-treated UC and CD pts from 19 Belgian centres. TAS included 141 pts (UC 47, CD 94); median follow-up was 537 days; 140/141 pts had ≥1 FACIT-F score. In the UC and CD groups, respectively, 68% and 42% of pts were male; median (IQR) age at index date was 51 (37–59) and 40 (29–52); and baseline median (IQR) FACIT-F total score was 39 (32–46) and 32 (24–40). Lower FACIT-F score (more fatigue) was associated with higher pMS in UC (p&lt;0.001), and higher HBI score (p=0.01) and having ongoing fistulas at baseline (p=0.01) in CD (Table). Less fatigue was associated with being in remission at baseline in both UC and CD (p&lt;0.01). Being male was associated with less fatigue in the overall population and CD (p&lt;0.01), but not in UC alone. Baseline occurrence of extra intestinal manifestations (EIMs) was associated with more fatigue in the overall group (p=0.037); however few pts (UC 4; CD 8) had EIMs. UC pts had less fatigue than CD pts (p=0.004). From baseline to month 24, the change in median (IQR) FACIT-F total score was -3.0 (-12.0 to 5.0) points for UC and 3.5 (-1.0 to 18.0) for CD. Conclusion These real-world data from a long-term registry study of VDZ-treated pts in Belgium demonstrate that higher pMS and HBI score, active fistulae, and EIM occurrence at baseline may be associated with more fatigue in IBD pts. Pts treated with VDZ had no significant change in FACIT-F total score over 24 months.

Introduction. The aim of this study is to evaluate the outcome of introduction of early surgery in the course of isolated ileocecal Crohn’s disease, where there is no absolute indication of surgery. Methods. Observational study involving patients with isolated ileocecal Crohn’s disease who underwent early surgical resection (within one year of the presentation of the hospital). A complete blood count, ESR, and CRP were done and compared between the preoperative value, 1st postoperative visit (3-4 weeks), and last follow-up visit. Statistical analysis was done using Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) to compare the different figures. Results. There was a statistically significant increase in the hemoglobin levels between preoperative, postoperative, and long-term follow-up and a significant decrease in leukocyte count between the pre- and postoperative values (F=19.8, p<0.001 and F=8.9, p=0.002, resp.). Similarly, the ESR and CRP values were decreased significantly at long-term follow-up (F=8.5, p=0.019 and F=8.3, p=0.013, resp.). Conclusion. Early surgical resection in isolated ileocaecal Crohn’s disease achieved significant biochemical improvements. These successful results in this small number of patients indicate that early surgical intervention may provide better outcomes. These initial results encourage larger and comparative studies of long-term results versus long-term use of biological agents.
