Condition: Crohn Disease (CD) · Vedolizumab · Intestinal Ultrasound · Sponsor: The Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University
Crohn's disease(CD) is a chronic nonspecific inflammatory disease of the intestinal tract whose etiology is not yet fully understood,characterized by transmural inflammation , can present with serious complications such as intestinal obstruction, perforation, abdominal abscesses, and fistulae. In recent years, the incidence of CD has increased rapidly, causing a heavy social and economic burden. Currently, the main therapeutic drugs for CD include aminosalicylic acid preparations, glucocorticoids, immunosuppressants, and biological agents. With the development of medical technology, small molecule preparations have begun to be applied to moderate-to-severe Crohn's disease, providing new treatment options for patients with Crohn's disease. Vedolizumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody.the GEMINI study demonstrated its superior efficacy over placebo in inducing and maintaining clinical remission. And the VERSIFY study confirmed its advantage in achieving mucosal healing, with a transmural healing rate of 29.1% at week 52. Intestinal ultrasound is a noninvasive, reproducible, convenient, and inexpensive test that can greatly increase the frequency of assessing treatment response and speed up the clinical decision-making process.The 2019 ECCO-ESGAR guidelines recommend intestinal ultrasound for disease monitoring in patients with CD. Multiple studies have shown that most ultrasound markers normalize within 12 weeks of treatment initiation, and in particular, normalization of bow…
