van Hoeve K, Thomas D, Hillary T, Hoffman I, Dreesen E. Identifying risk factors of anti-TNF induced skin lesions and other adverse events in paediatric patients with inflammatory bowel disease. J Pediatr Gastroenterol Nutr 2024; 78:95-104. [PMID: 38291690 DOI: 10.1002/jpn3.12066] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2023] [Revised: 10/27/2023] [Accepted: 11/02/2023] [Indexed: 02/01/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES While higher infliximab (IFX) trough concentrations (TCs) are associated with better outcomes in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), they could pose a risk for adverse events (AEs), including IFX-induced skin lesions. Therefore, we studied correlations between IFX TCs and occurrence of AEs in paediatric IBD patients. METHODS In this single-centre study, all children with Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) receiving IFX maintenance therapy who underwent proactive drug monitoring between March 2015 and August 2022 were included. IFX doses/intervals/TCs and patient characteristics were systematically registered, as well as AEs and skin lesions appearance. RESULTS A total of 109 patients (72 CD and 37 UC) contributed 2913 IFX TCs. During a median follow-up of 3.0 [1.5-4.5] years, we observed 684 AEs in 101 patients and 49 skin lesions in 35 patients. There was no significant difference (p = .467) in median TCs between patients with and without skin lesions. However, higher median IFX doses were associated with an increased hazard rate of skin lesions [HR 1.084 (1.024-1.148), p = .005], in addition to female sex [2.210 (1.187-5.310), p = .016] and diagnosis of CD [1.695 (1.241-1.877), p = .011]. Considering IFX therapeutic TC cut-offs of 5.0 and 9.0 µg/mL, there was no significant difference in AE rate (p = .749 and p = .833, respectively). Also, no significant association between IFX doses and AE rate (p = .159). CONCLUSIONS Increasing the IFX dose to achieve therapeutic TCs may not increase the overall risk of AEs in paediatric IBD patients. However, concerns arise regarding the risk of skin lesions, especially in female CD patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objective of this systematic review was to evaluate the efficacies of different biologic therapies in treating tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNFα)-induced paradoxical psoriasis (PXP) and controlling inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) symptoms. METHODS We conducted a literature search of the Ovid EMBASE, Ovid Medline, Web of Science Core Collection, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials databases from their inception to October 3, 2021. We considered all peer-reviewed, randomized controlled trials, chart reviews, and observational studies that discussed the TNFα-induced PXP treatment outcomes in IBD patients of switching to different biologic therapies. RESULTS Switching to ustekinumab (UST) resulted in complete or partial resolution of TNFα-induced PXP in 83.1% of patients (74 out of 89 patients), while switching to either vedolizumab (VDZ) or secukinumab led to complete resolution in 100% of patients (eight out of eight patients). Approximately 75.4% of patients who were switched to UST remained in IBD remission, 4.6% in partial remission, and 20.0% in the flare of IBD. CONCLUSIONS UST has sufficient data to demonstrate the efficacy in treating TNFα-induced PXP and controlling IBD symptoms concurrently. More data is needed to validate the efficacies of VDZ and SEC in treating TNFα-induced PXP in IBD patients.

Abstract
Therapeutic options for the treatment of pediatric inflammatory bowel disease include aminosalicylates, enteral nutrition, corticosteroids, immunomodulators, biologics, and emerging small molecule agents. Infectious risk due to systemic immunosuppression should be mitigated by appropriate screening before therapy initiation. Rare but serious malignancies have been associated with thiopurine use alone and in combination with anti-tumor necrosis factor agents, often in the setting of a primary Epstein-Barr virus infection. Potential agent-specific adverse events such as cytopenias, hepatotoxicity, and nephrotoxicity warrant regular clinical and laboratory monitoring.

Abstract
Despite the enlarging therapeutic armamentarium, IBD is still plagued by a therapeutic ceiling. Precision medicine, with the selection of the "rights," may present a solution, and this review will discuss the critical process of pairing the right patient with right therapy at the right time. Firstly, the review will discuss the shift to and evidence behind early effective therapy. Then, it delves into promising future strategies of patient profiling to identify a patients' biological pathway(s) and prognosis. Finally, the review lays out practical considerations that drive treatment selection, particularly the impact of the therapeutic sequence.

Polymorphisms indicating risk of inflammatory bowel disease or antigenicity to anti-TNF drugs as biomarkers of response in children. Pharmacol Res 2023; 194:106859.

Abstract
Few genetic polymorphisms predict early response to anti-TNF drugs in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and even fewer have been identified in the pediatric population. However, it would be of considerable clinical interest to identify and validate genetic biomarkers of long-term response. Therefore, the aim of the study was to analyze the usefulness of biomarkers of response to anti-TNFs in pediatric IBD (pIBD) as long-term biomarkers and to find differences by type of IBD and type of anti-TNF drug. The study population comprised 340 children diagnosed with IBD who were treated with infliximab or adalimumab. Genotyping of 9 selected SNPs for their association with early response and/or immunogenicity to anti-TNFs was performed using real-time PCR. Variants C rs10508884 (CXCL12), A rs2241880 (ATG16L1), and T rs6100556 (PHACTR3) (p value 0.049; p value 0.03; p value 0.031) were associated with worse long-term response to anti-TNFs in pIBD. DNA variants specific to disease type and anti-TNF type were identified in the pediatric population. Genotyping of these genetic variants before initiation of anti-TNFs would enable, if validated in a prospective cohort, the identification of pediatric patients who are long-term responders to this therapy.

Abstract
In the last two decades, biologicals have become essential in treating children and adolescents with inflammatory bowel disease. TNF-α inhibitors (infliximab, adalimumab and golimumab) are preferentially used. Recent studies suggest that early application of TNF-α inhibitors is beneficial to inducing disease remission and preventing complications such as development of penetrating ulcers and fistulas. However, treatment failure occurs in about one third of pediatric patients. Particularly, children and adolescents differ in drug clearance, emphasizing the importance of pharmacokinetic drug monitoring in the pediatric setting. Here, current data on the choice and effectiveness of biologicals and therapeutic drug monitoring strategies are reviewed.
