Abstrakt: Purpose of Review: This review details the three new agents, including two novel mechanisms of action, approved to treat Crohn's disease in recent years. We review efficacy, safety, prescribing information, and available data on positioning these new therapies.
Recent Findings: Risankizumab and upadacitinib are novel mechanisms of action approved to treat moderate to severe Crohn's disease. Risankizumab targets the cytokine interleukin-23. Upadacitinib is a selective Janus kinase-1 inhibitor approved for use in individuals who have previously failed or are intolerant to an anti-TNF agent. Subcutaneous infliximab provides a novel method of administering maintenance dosing of a longstanding and efficacious therapy.
Summary: Risankizumab has shown efficacy in both biologic naïve and biologic experienced populations. The SEQUENCE trial shows superiority of risankizumab over ustekinumab for disease response in patients who have previously failed an anti-tumor necrosis factor agent. Upadacitinib has shown good efficacy in clinical trials even in the setting of a mandated steroid taper during induction. Subcutaneous infliximab maintenance therapy appears noninferior to i.v. infliximab and shows good treatment persistence in real world transitions. Additional data is needed to better understand how to position these therapies.
