PG - otac012 LID - 10.1093/crocol/otac012 [doi] LID - otac012 AB - BACKGROUND: Crohn's disease (CD) patients may benefit from biologic optimization. METHODS: We retrospectively assessed adverse events (AEs) and clinical/endoscopic response after ustekinumab re-induction in CD patients. RESULTS: We identified 28 patients, all with prior biologic exposure. Eight weeks following re-induction, 10.7% reported >/=1 AE. Three serious AEs occurred in a single patient (CD flares). No infusion reactions occurred. 53.8% and 38.5% achieved clinical response and remission, respectively. 42.8% achieved both endoscopic improvement and remission. CONCLUSIONS: Ustekinumab re-induction was well tolerated. Clinical and endoscopic disease activity improved in some patients. Further larger studies are needed to verify these findings in a broader population. CI - (c) The Author(s) 2022. Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of Crohn's & Colitis Foundation.
