Crohn's Disease (CD) and Ulcerative Colitis (UC) are chronic inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). Adalimumab is a human monoclonal antibody against TNF-alpha, a pro-inflammatory cytokine that mediates the inflammatory response in IBD upon binding to the TNF receptors. Primary non-response to adalimumab is high in both CD and UC. Currently, there are no predictors of response to adalimumab and the actual mechanism of action has not yet been elucidated. To gain better understanding of the drug targeting of adalimumab in IBD, the University Medical Center Groningen (UMCG) developed fluorescently labeled adalimumab (adalimumab-680LT). This study aims to assess the safety and the optimal dose of adalimumab-680LT to visualize and potentially quantify the local drug concentration and predict treatment response in IBD patients using in vivo and ex vivo fluorescence molecular imaging (FMI).
1,880 studies on the registry are indexed under Crohn Disease; 462 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 21 is below the median of 66 across 1,188 interventional studies indexed under Crohn Disease.

Exclusion Criteria:
Patients did not receive adalimumab-680LT, but underwent a Fluorescence Molecular Imaging procedure to serve as a control group and compare results with patients receiving the tracer
Other: Control
Patients received 4.5 mg adalimumab-680LT and underwent a Fluorescence Molecular Imaging procedure
Drug: Adalimumab-680LT
Patients received 15 mg adalimumab-680LT and underwent a Fluorescence Molecular Imaging procedure
Drug: Adalimumab-680LT
Patients received 25 mg adalimumab-680LT and underwent a Fluorescence Molecular Imaging procedure
Drug: Adalimumab-680LT
Patients who received the optimal dose during the first Fluorescence Molecular Imaging procedure are invited for a second procedure after at least 14 weeks of adalimumab therapy. They will receive the optimal dose adalimumab-680LT and will undergo another Fluorescence Molecular Imaging procedure
Drug: Adalimumab-680LT
First, adalimumab-680LT was administered intravenously. 2-3 days later, a Fluorescence Molecular Imaging procedure was performed to enable the visualisation and detection of fluorescence signals.
Fluorescence Molecular Imaging was performed to enable the visualisation and detection of fluorescence signals.

Investigate the feasibility of using FME to detect adalimumab-680LT signals
Evaluating the performance of FME for detecting adalimumab-680LT signals. This evaluation will be based on a visual evaluation during FME (visible signal yes/no), TBR and CNR calculations and MDSFR/SFF measurements.
Time frame: 12 months
Investigate the feasibility of using ex vivo FMI to detect adalimumab-680LT
Evaluating the performance of ex vivo FMI for detecting adalimumab-680LT signals. This evaluation will be based on mean fluorescence intensities (MFIs) of biopsies and fluorescence/light sheet microscopy.
Time frame: 12 months
Determining the optimal imaging dose of adalimumab-680LT
The optimal dose will be based on the adalimumab-680LT signals during FME and ex vivo FMI
Time frame: 12 months
Investigate a potential correlation of in vivo fluorescence signal intensities and target saturation to clinical response/remission after 14 weeks of adalimumab therapy regimen in patients with IBD
Evaluation of the potential correlation in vivo will be based on in vivo fluorescence images and the MDSFR/SFF measurements before and after at least 14 weeks of adalimumab treatment
Time frame: 12 months
Investigate a potential correlation of ex vivo fluorescence signal intensities and target saturation to clinical response/remission after 14 weeks of adalimumab therapy regimen in patients with IBD
Evaluation of the potential correlation ex vivo will be based on MFIs of biopsies, fluorescence microscopy results, and tracer concentrations inside biopsies before and after at least 14 weeks of adalimumab treatment
Time frame: 12 months
Quantify the fluorescence signals of the tracer in vivo by using single-fiber reflectance/single-fiber fluorescence (MDSFR/SFF) spectroscopy and correlate these measurements to tracer dose, in vivo fluorescence intensities and inflammation severity
Quantification of MDSFR/SFF measurements in inflamed tissue compared to measurements in non-inflamed tissue. Positive correlation between MDSFR/SFF measurements and dose/inflammation severity?
Time frame: 12 months
To correlate ex vivo fluorescence signals to inflammation severity and tracer dose based on histopathological examination inside the obtained biopsies
Histologically ascertained tissue types (qualitative): Normal (non-inflamed) ileal, colon and rectal tissue Inflamed ileum, colon and rectum tissue Random ''high-fluorescent'' tissue Random ''Non-fluorescent'' tissue
Time frame: 12 months
To assess tracer stability, tracer distribution and tracer concentration, and to identify the composition of immune cells ex vivo to learn more about adalimumab mucosal target cells
Fluorescence (confocal) microscopy with additional use of immune panels and spatial transcriptomics analysis (before and after at least 14 weeks of adalimumab treatment). Measurements of the adalimumab-680LT concentration by light-sheet microscopy after tissue clearing, insights in adalimumab-target cells and presence of immune cells inside the biopsies and blood samples by flow cytometry and assessment of tracer stability by Western Blot
Time frame: 12 months
