Efficacy of adalimumab in patients with Crohn's disease and symptomatic small bowel stricture: a multicentre, prospective, observational cohort (CREOLE) study.

ABSTRACT: The efficacy of anti-tumour necrosis factors (anti-TNFs) in patients with Crohn's disease (CD) and symptomatic small bowel stricture (SSBS) is controversial. The aim of this study was to estimate the efficacy of adalimumab in these patients and to identify the factors predicting success.We performed a multicentre, prospective, observational cohort study in patients with CD and SSBS. The included patients underwent magnetic resonance enterography at baseline and subsequently received adalimumab. The primary endpoint was success at week 24, defined as adalimumab continuation without prohibited treatment (corticosteroids after the eight week following inclusion, other anti-TNFs), endoscopic dilation or bowel resection. The baseline factors independently associated with success were identified using a logistic regression model, leading to a simple prognostic score. Secondary endpoints were prolonged success after week 24 (still on adalimumab, without dilation nor surgery) and time to bowel resection in the whole cohort.From January 2010 to December 2011, 105 patients were screened and 97 were included. At week 24, 62/97 (64%) patients had achieved success. The prognostic score defined a good prognosis group with 43/49 successes, an intermediate prognosis group with 17/28 successes and a poor prognosis group with 1/16 successes. After a median follow-up time of 3.8?years, 45.7%±6.6% (proportion±SE) of patients who were in success at week 24 (ie, 29% of the whole cohort) were still in prolonged success at 4?years. Among the whole cohort, 50.7%±5.3% of patients did not undergo bowel resection 4?years after inclusion.A successful response to adalimumab was observed in about two-thirds of CD patients with SSBS and was prolonged in nearly half of them till the end of follow-up. More than half of the patients were free of surgery 4?years after treatment initiation.NCT01183403; Results.

Project description:To validate recent guidance changes by establishing the performance of cut-off values for embryo crown-rump length and mean gestational sac diameter to diagnose miscarriage with high levels of certainty. Secondary aims were to examine the influence of gestational age on interpretation of mean gestational sac diameter and crown-rump length values, determine the optimal intervals between scans and findings on repeat scans that definitively diagnose pregnancy failure.)Prospective multicentre observational trial.Seven hospital based early pregnancy assessment units in the United Kingdom.2845 women with intrauterine pregnancies of unknown viability included if transvaginal ultrasonography showed an intrauterine pregnancy of uncertain viability. In three hospitals this was initially defined as an empty gestational sac <20 mm mean diameter with or without a visible yolk sac but no embryo, or an embryo with crown-rump length <6 mm with no heartbeat. Following amended guidance in December 2011 this definition changed to a gestational sac size <25 mm or embryo crown-rump length <7 mm. At one unit the definition was extended throughout to include a mean gestational sac diameter <30 mm or embryo crown-rump length <8 mm.Mean gestational sac diameter, crown-rump length, and presence or absence of embryo heart activity at initial and repeat transvaginal ultrasonography around 7-14 days later. The final outcome was pregnancy viability at 11-14 weeks' gestation.The following indicated a miscarriage at initial scan: mean gestational sac diameter ? 25 mm with an empty sac (364/364 specificity: 100%, 95% confidence interval 99.0% to 100%), embryo with crown-rump length ? 7 mm without visible embryo heart activity (110/110 specificity: 100%, 96.7% to 100%), mean gestational sac diameter ? 18 mm for gestational sacs without an embryo presenting after 70 days' gestation (907/907 specificity: 100%, 99.6% to 100%), embryo with crown-rump length ? 3 mm without visible heart activity presenting after 70 days' gestation (87/87 specificity: 100%, 95.8% to 100%). The following were indicative of miscarriage at a repeat scan: initial scan and repeat scan after seven days or more showing an embryo without visible heart activity (103/103 specificity: 100%, 96.5% to 100%), pregnancies without an embryo and mean gestational sac diameter <12 mm where the mean diameter has not doubled after 14 days or more (478/478 specificity: 100%, 99.2% to 100%), pregnancies without an embryo and mean gestational sac diameter ? 12 mm showing no embryo heartbeat after seven days or more (150/150 specificity: 100%, 97.6% to 100%).Recently changed cut-off values of gestational sac and embryo size defining miscarriage are appropriate and not too conservative but do not take into account gestational age. Guidance on timing between scans and expected findings on repeat scans are still too liberal. Protocols for miscarriage diagnosis should be reviewed to account for this evidence to avoid misdiagnosis and the risk of terminating viable pregnancies.

Project description:Background and Aims: Anti-tumor necrosis factor mAb (i.e., adalimumab, ADA) is currently used in the treatment of patients with Crohn's disease (CD). However, its regulation on fecal microbiota is still not fully understood. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 115 patients with CD who received treatment with ADA for 12 weeks at the Inflammatory Bowel Disease Center in Shanghai Tenth People's Hospital and Department of Gastroenterology in Shanghai General Hospital. The Crohn's disease activity index (CDAI) evaluation was applied to patients before ADA therapy at week 0, 4, 8, and 12. Clinical remission (CR) was defined as the CDAI < 150. All patients underwent ileocolonoscopy or enteroscopy at baseline (week 0) and week 12. Crohn's Disease Endoscopic Index of Severity (CDEIS) scores were calculated by two experienced physicians to assess endoscopic activity. Mucosal healing (MH) was assigned a CDEIS score between 0 and 3. Fecal samples were collected from eight CD patients at baseline and week 12, and the microbiota was analyzed by using 16S RNA sequencing. Results: At week 12, CR was achieved in 70.6% (72/102) of the patients with active CD. A total of 47.1% (48/102) of the patients with active CD attained MH, among which, 56.6% (30/53) of the patients with mildly active CD (3 ≤ CDEIS <9) and 48.0% (12/25) of the moderately active CD patients (9 ≤ CDEIS <12) attained MH, but only 25.0% (6/24) achieved MH in severely active CD patients (CDEIS ≥12). The efficacy of ADA was not associated with lesion locations (χ 2 = 0.409, p = 0.815). Unexpectedly, we found an increase in protective microbiota at the genus level (e.g., Barnesiella, Anaerostipes, Tyzzerella, Lachnoclostridium, and Lachnospiraceae_unclassified) but a decrease in pathogenic bacteria (Escherichia-Shigella) in fecal samples of the ADA-responsive group (ADA-R) when compared with those in the ADA-nonresponsive group (ADA-NR). Notably, the gene bglX coding β-glucosidase and gph encoding phosphoglycolate phosphatase were enriched in fecal samples of ADA-R. Conversely, the abundance of genes coding ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter system proteins was significantly enriched in fecal samples of ADA-NR when compared with that of the ADA-R. Conclusion: This study reveals that ADA markedly improves clinical remission and induces MH in mildly to moderately active CD patients and that distinct changes in the gut microbiota can be used to predict the efficacy of ADA.

Project description:BackgroundThis prospective, multicentre, observational INVIDIa-2 study is investigating the clinical efficacy of influenza vaccination in advanced-cancer patients receiving immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs), enrolled in 82 Italian centres, from October 2019 to January 2020. The primary endpoint was the incidence of influenza-like illness (ILI) until 30 April 2020. All the ILI episodes, laboratory tests, complications, hospitalizations and pneumonitis were recorded. Therefore, the study prospectively recorded all the COVID-19 ILI events.Patients and methodsPatients were included in this non-prespecified COVID-19 analysis, if alive on 31 January 2020, when the Italian government declared the national emergency. The prevalence of confirmed COVID-19 cases was detected as ILI episode with laboratory confirmation of SARS-CoV-2. Cases with clinical-radiological diagnosis of COVID-19 (COVID-like ILIs), were also reported.ResultsOut of 1257 enrolled patients, 955 matched the inclusion criteria for this unplanned analysis. From 31 January to 30 April 2020, 66 patients had ILI: 9 of 955 cases were confirmed COVID-19 ILIs, with prevalence of 0.9% [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.3-2.4], a hospitalization rate of 100% and a mortality rate of 77.8%. Including 5 COVID-like ILIs, the overall COVID-19 prevalence was 1.5% (95% CI: 0.5-3.1), with 100% hospitalization and 64% mortality. The presence of elderly, males and comorbidities was significantly higher among patients vaccinated against influenza versus unvaccinated (p?=?0.009, p?<?0.0001, p?<?0.0001). Overall COVID-19 prevalence was 1.2% for vaccinated (six of 482 cases, all confirmed) and 1.7% for unvaccinated (8 of 473, 3 confirmed COVID-19 and 5 COVID-like), p?=?0.52. The difference remained non-significant, considering confirmed COVID-19 only (p?=?0.33).ConclusionCOVID-19 has a meaningful clinical impact on the cancer-patient population receiving ICIs, with high prevalence, hospitalization and an alarming mortality rate among symptomatic cases. Influenza vaccination does not protect from SARS-CoV-2 infection.
