Clinical Trial Summary

This is a non-interventional, retrospective study of adult participants with IBD. IBD consists of either ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn's disease (CD). The study will review the clinical data previously collected during February 2007 to March 2020 of approximately 724 participants who have had treatment with adalimumab, infliximab, golimumab, or vedolizumab in Taiwan.

Description:

This is a non-interventional, retrospective study in newly diagnosed IBD participants (UC or CD) treated with biologics.

The study will assess IBD relapse, effectiveness, and safety of biologic treatments in IBD participants. The study will enroll approximately 724 participants. The data will be collected from the electronic medical record (EMR) database of selected medical centers in Taiwan. IBD Participants who were evaluated and treated at the participating sites between 01 February 2007 to 31 March 2020 will be included. Participants will be assigned to the following two observational cohorts based on pathological diagnosis:

• Cohort 1: Participants With Biologics Discontinuation

• Cohort 2: Participants Treated With Biologics

This multi-center trial will be conducted in Taiwan. The overall duration of the study will be approximately 15 months.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Percentage of Participants Who Had IBD Relapse	IBD Relapse includes re-treatment with biologics, steroid use, IBD-related hospitalization record, IBD-related ER visits, IBD-related surgery, increase in disease index. The occurrence of any of the above records will be regarded as an IBD relapse.	Up to approximately 13 years
Primary	Time to Relapse After Biologics Discontinuation	Time to relapse is defined as the time interval from end of treatment (EOT) to the first IBD relapse.	Up to approximately 13 years
Primary	Correlation Between the Clinical Variables and Relapse Post Biologics Discontinuation	The identifying predictors of relapse, survival distributions will be studied using the log-rank test for the univariate analysis and then using time dependent Cox regression models for the multivariate analysis. The potential confounders of relapse including demographics, disease status, IBD-related treatment, symptom control treatment, lab and complication will be assessed. Two predictive models will be built in the study, one is "on biologics treatment", and other is "off biologics treatment".	Up to approximately 13 years
Primary	Percentage of Participants Achieving Clinical Response	Clinical Response for CD is defined as Crohn's disease active index (CDAI) greater than or equal to (>=) 70 points reduction from the index date. For UC, Mayo score >=3 points reduction and >=30 percent (%) decrease from the index date with an accompanying rectal bleeding subscore >=1 points reduction or with absolute rectal bleeding subscore less than or equal to (<=) 1 and as >=2 point reduction in partial Mayo score. Index date: date when the first dose of the biologic was prescribed in each treatment cycle.	Up to approximately 13 years
Primary	Percentage of Participants Achieving Clinical Remission	Clinical Remission for CD is defined as CDAI <=150 point.CDAI assesses CD based on clinical signs such as number of liquid stools,intensity of abdominal pain,general wellbeing,presence of comorbid conditions,antidiarrheal use,physical examination and laboratory findings.Total score ranges from 0 to 600 points.Clinical Remission for UC is defined as Mayo score <=2 and no individual subscore >1 and partial Mayo score <=1.Mayo score measure disease activity of UC.Mayo score consists of 4 sub-scores: stool pattern,most severe rectal bleeding of the day,endoscopic findings,global assessment by physician,each graded from 0 to 3 with higher scores indicating more severe disease.Scores are summed to give a total score range of 0 to 12.Partial Mayo score consists of 3 sub-scores:stool pattern,most severe rectal bleeding of the day, global assessment by physician, each graded from 0 to 3 with higher scores indicating more severe disease.Scores are summed to give a total score range of 0 to 9.	Up to approximately 13 years
Primary	Percentage of Participants Achieving Steroid-free Remission	Steroid-free remission for CD is defined as CDAI <=150 point. CDAI assesses CD based on clinical signs such as number of liquid stools, intensity of abdominal pain, general wellbeing, presence of comorbid conditions, antidiarrheal use, physical examination and laboratory findings. Total score ranges from 0 to 600 points. Steroid-free remission for UC is defined as absence of steroid treatment (within 1 week before and after the date of potential clinical remission achieved) among participants on steroids at baseline (index date). Index date: date when the first dose of the biologic was prescribed in each treatment cycle.	Up to approximately 13 years
Primary	Percentage of Participants Achieving Mucosal Healing	Mucosal healing is defined as absence of any symptom finding of ulcer or spontaneous bleeding on endoscopic assessment or Crohn's Disease Endoscopic Index of Severity (CDEIS) less than (<) 4 for CD participants and as Mayo endoscopic subscore <=1 for UC participants.	Up to approximately 13 years
Primary	Correlation Between the Clinical Variables and Treatment Effectiveness	The relationship between clinical variables and treatment effectiveness will be assessed. The impact of potential bias from the baseline/demographic variables, baseline matching will be performed using propensity score 1:1 matching by each treatment cycle and different types of biologic treatments before performing the comparative analysis for effectiveness outcome. The matching condition will be determined according to the data collection. IBD participants with clinical response, clinical remission, steroid-free remission, and mucosal healing will be analyzed. The difference in effectiveness between IBD participants receiving different types of biologic treatment will be compared using Chi-square test.	Up to approximately 13 years
Primary	Percentage of Participants Experiencing Infection	Participants experiencing opportunistic infections, hepatic viral infections, gastrointestinal (GI) infections, respiratory infections, respiratory failure, or sepsis or septic shock among participants receiving vedolizumab versus those receiving anti-TNF-a will be assessed.	Up to approximately 13 years
