Popis: | Summary Background Anti‐TNF antibodies were the first biologic treatment option for patients with inflammatory bowel diseases. Aims To assess length of treatment persistence of first anti‐TNF therapy and influencing factors used in the standard care of patients with inflammatory bowel diseases. Methods Single‐centre, retrospective study from a register including patients who received anti‐TNF therapy in the last 20 years at the study centre. Kaplan‐Meier analysis with log‐rank test was used to describe treatment persistence. With multivariable Cox regression analysis, risk factors for treatment failure were investigated. Results Five hundred thirty‐eight patients (CD, Crohn's disease: 367, UC, ulcerative colitis: 147, inflammatory bowel disease unclassified: 24) with a median follow‐up of 8.1 years were included. Median (95% confidence interval) treatment persistence in the total cohort was 2.3 years (28 [22, 38] months), and nearly half of patients withdrew from treatment within 2 years. Male patients were treated longer than females (male: 37 [25, 48] months, female: 23 [14, 33] months, P = 0.002). Treatment persistence was longer in CD compared to UC (CD: 39 [30, 50] months, UC: 13 [9, 19] months, P At the end of follow‐up, only 29% of patients still received scheduled treatment with the first anti‐TNF. Longer treatment persistence could be observed in males, in patients with Crohn's disease and for adalimumab treatment in Crohn's disease. |
