Comparison Between Infliximab and Adalimumab on Patients With Ulcerative Colitis

Comparison of Short and Long-term Efficacy Between Infliximab and Adalimumab on Patients With Ulcerative Colitis - a Retrospective Observational Multicenter Cohort Study

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 28 Oct 2024

Brief summary (registry, in English)

Anti-TNF (tumor necrosing factor) treatment with infliximab (IFX) and adalimumab (ADA) are established first-line biological therapies used in treatment of patients with ulcerative colitis (UC). There are no head-to-head comparative studies between these two drug but meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials states that IFX might be more effective than ADA for the induction of clinical remission. However, several observational studies conclude that ADA seem to have similar effect as IFX in treating patients with UC but these studies have limitations. The overall aim of this retrospective multicenter observational cohort study is to evaluate if there is a difference in efficacy between infliximab (IFX) and adalimumab (ADA) in treating bio-naive patients with UC in the short and long term during the modern era when therapeutic drug monitoring have been used to optimize anti-TNF treatment.
