An observational study in Crohn Disease and Ulcerative Colitis, sponsored by Hospital de Basurto. Completed at 1 site in Spain. Open to participants aged 18 Years and older. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2024-10-30.
Sponsored by Hospital de Basurto · Observational
To establish the efficacy, safety, effectiveness and efficiency of monitoring the levels of anti-TNFα drugs and the levels of antibodies generated against these drugs in the treatment of patients with moderate or severe IBD (CD/CU).
An analysis will be made of the economic impact on the Health System of monitoring treatment with anti-TNFα drugs in CD/CU.
As a result of this specific objective, a standardized procedure will be established for the evaluation of the response to treatment with anti-TNFα drugs for CD/CU that includes the new trials and the new devices developed.
Exploratory objective - To conduct a cost-effectiveness (utility) analysis of a strategy for the management of stable moderate to severe CD/CU patients based on treatment monitoring.

Main operational objective
Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis) on treatment with Infliximab or Adalimumab and who have been clinically stable for 12 weeks.
Exclusion criteria:
Cohort of routine practice, where the clinician will be blinded to these results. The randomization process will be by blocks and weighted to the ADL/IFX ratio of use of these treatments in the usual clinical practice of the participating hospitals, to guarantee a homogeneous distribution of the treatments in the groups at the beginning/end of the follow-up.
Device: Use of the test for treatment optimization
Intervention cohort, where the clinician will have information on the test results to support decision making on treatment optimization. The randomization process will be by blocks and weighted to the ADL/IFX ratio of use of these treatments in the usual clinical practice of the participating hospitals, to guarantee a homogeneous distribution of the treatments in the groups at the beginning/end of the follow-up.
Pharmacological management of IBD
Follow-up of two cohorts made up of patients diagnosed with moderate severe CD/UC, from the Basurto University Hospital, Cruces University Hospital and San Eloy Hospital, and who are being treated with IFX/ADL, and stable in terms of disease activity
