Although ulcerative proctitis [UP] can dramatically impair quality of life, treatment efficacy has been poorly investigated in UP as it was historically excluded from phase 2/3 randomised controlled trials in ulcerative colitis. Our aim was to assess the effectiveness and safety of tofacitinib for the treatment of UP.
We conducted a retrospective, multicentre study in 17 GETAID centres, including consecutive patients with UP treated with tofacitinib. The primary endpoint was steroid-free remission between Week 8 and Week 14, defined as a partial Mayo score of 2 [and no individual subscore above 1]. Secondary outcomes included clinical response and steroid-free remission after induction and at 1 year.
All the 35 enrolled patients previously received anti-tumour necrosis factor [TNF] therapy and 88.6% were exposed to at least two lines of biologics. At baseline, the median partial Mayo score was 7 (intequartile range [IQR] [5.5-7]). After induction [W8-W14], 42.9% and 60.0% of patients achieved steroid-free remission and clinical response, respectively. At 1 year, the steroid-free clinical remission and clinical response rates were 39.4% and 45.5%, respectively, and 51.2% [17/33] were still receiving tofacitinib treatment. Survival without tofacitinib withdrawal was estimated at 50.4% (95% confidence interval [CI] [35.5-71.6]) at 1 year. Only a lower partial Mayo at baseline was independently associated with remission at induction (0dds ratio [OR] = 0.56 for an increase of 1, (95% CI [0.33-0.95], p = 0.03). Five [14.3%] adverse events were reported, with one leading to treatment withdrawal [septic shock secondary to cholecystitis].
Tofacitinib may offer a therapeutic option for patients with refractory UP.
虽然溃疡性直肠炎[UP]会显著降低生活质量,但由于历史上溃疡性结肠炎的 2/3 期随机对照试验将其排除在外,因此 UP 的治疗效果尚未得到充分研究。我们的目的是评估托法替尼治疗 UP 的有效性和安全性。
我们在 17 个 GETAID 中心进行了一项回顾性、多中心研究,纳入了接受托法替尼治疗的 UP 连续患者。主要终点是在第 8 周到第 14 周之间无类固醇缓解,定义为部分 Mayo 评分为 2[且各单项评分均不高于 1]。次要结局包括诱导后和 1 年时的临床缓解和无类固醇缓解。
所有 35 名入组患者均曾接受过抗肿瘤坏死因子[TNF]治疗,88.6%的患者至少接受过两种生物制剂治疗。基线时,部分 Mayo 评分中位数为 7(四分位间距[IQR] [5.5-7])。诱导后[第 8 周到第 14 周],42.9%和 60.0%的患者分别达到无类固醇缓解和临床缓解。1 年后,无类固醇临床缓解率和临床缓解率分别为 39.4%和 45.5%,51.2%(33/64)仍在接受托法替尼治疗。1 年时无托法替尼停药的生存率估计为 50.4%(95%置信区间[CI] [35.5-71.6])。只有基线时较低的部分 Mayo评分与诱导缓解独立相关(增加 1 分的优势比[OR]为 0.56(95%CI [0.33-0.95],p=0.03)。报告了 5 例[14.3%]不良事件,其中 1 例导致治疗中止[胆囊炎继发感染性休克]。
托法替尼可能为难治性 UP 患者提供一种治疗选择。
