Journal Article
Induction of Endoscopic Response, Remission, and Ulcer-Free Endoscopy With Upadacitinib Is Associated With Improved Clinical Outcomes and Quality of Life in Patients With Crohn’s Disease
2025
Overview
Abstract
Background
We evaluated the association of achieving endoscopic outcomes at week 12 of induction with improvements in clinical outcomes and quality of life (QoL) at week 52 of maintenance in patients with moderately to severely active Crohn’s disease (CD) treated with upadacitinib (UPA).
Methods
This post hoc analysis evaluated data from 2 phase 3 induction trials (NCT03345836 and NCT03345849) and 1 maintenance (NCT03345823) trial. Clinical responders to 12-week induction therapy with UPA who also received 52-week maintenance treatment with UPA were included. Endoscopic response, remission, healing, and ulcer-free endoscopy were assessed at week 12. Meaningful improvements in clinical and QoL outcomes were evaluated at week 52.
Results
A significantly greater proportion of patients who achieved an endoscopic response at the end of induction, compared with patients who did not, attained Crohn’s Disease Activity Index (CDAI) remission (52.0% vs 34.6%; P ≤ .01), corticosteroid-free CDAI remission (50.0% vs 30.9%), Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire remission (52.6% vs 30.3%), and meaningful improvements in Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy—Fatigue response (46.7% vs 25.9%), overall work impairment (47.1% vs 26.5%), and daily activity impairment (53.3% vs 34.1%) (all P < .05) at week 52. Similar findings were observed for patients who achieved endoscopic remission, endoscopic healing, and ulcer-free endoscopy at the end of induction vs those who did not.
Conclusions
Early improvement in endoscopic outcomes after UPA induction treatment was associated with long-term meaningful improvements in clinical outcomes and QoL in patients with CD.
Clinical Registration number
U-EXCEED induction trial (NCT03345836), U-EXCEL induction trial (NCT03345849), and U-ENDURE maintenance trial (NCT03345823).
Lay Summary
In patients with Crohn’s disease treated with 12 weeks of upadacitinib, a greater proportion with early improvements in endoscopic response, remission, healing, and ulcer-free endoscopy, vs those without improvements, attained long-term meaningful improvements in clinical outcomes and quality of life.
