Effectiveness and Safety of Vedolizumab Induction Therapy for Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Abstract: In a cohort of patients with CD or UC who failed previous anti-tumor necrosis factor therapy, approximately one third of patients achieved steroid-free clinical remission after 14 weeks of induction therapy with vedolizumab. This agent had an acceptable safety profile in these patients.

“…In both diseases, the clinical remission rate at week 6 was about 30% and the steroid-free remission rate was about 20%. 222 The efficacy was modest, but still clinically important given the highly refractory profile of this cohort of patients who had previously not responded to anti-TNF therapy.…”

“…The adverse effects were comparable between the vedolizumab group and placebo group in most studies. No cases of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy have been reported in previous studies [50][51][52][53][54].…”

“…Thus, vedolizumab may be useful for patients who are not responsive to anti-TNF treatment. Other cohort studies also indicated a relatively high clinical response (50-53 % at week 14) [52,53] or marked decreases in the partial Mayo score at week 6 [54], which was observed although the patients had not been randomized. The adverse effects were comparable between the vedolizumab group and placebo group in most studies.…”

“…Importantly, the efficacy of vedolizumab for treatment of anti-TNF-resistant CD appears to be quite modest [Sandborn et al 2013, Côté-Daigneault et al 2015. In real-world cohorts of patients with CD or ulcerative colitis (UC) whose disease has failed to respond to previous anti-TNF therapy, approximately one third of patients achieved steroid-free clinical remission after 14 weeks of treatment with vedolizumab [Amiot et al 2016;Baumgart et al 2016]. This emphasizes the need for novel and effective agents.…”
