BACKGROUND: Perianal fistulas of Crohn's disease (CD) create a significant burden on patients' lives. However, the efficacy and safety of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell treatment are contradicting, and real-world evidence is lacking. AIMS: To examine the usability of darvadstrocel therapy in managing perianal CD. METHODS: We enrolled patients with CD and perianal fistulas in this retrospective multicenter study. The primary outcome was perianal clinical remission (defined as all treated fistulas closed) at weeks 26 and 52. Secondary outcomes were clinical response rates (≥ 1 fistulas closed), perianal activity (PDAI), patient satisfaction, and adverse events. Data were recorded at baseline and weeks 12, 26 and 52. Prediction of primary outcomes was performed by logistic regression. RESULTS: Overall, among 223 patients (male/female ratio: 0.48), perianal clinical remission was achieved in 78.2% and 62.3% until weeks 26 and 52. Baseline PDAI score (OR 0.75), number of fistulas (OR 0.28) and the number of weeks after preparation for surgery (OR 0.98) were associated with treatment failure. The clinical response rates were 84.8% and 79.8% at weeks 26 and 52. Improvement of subjective perianal symptoms was achieved in 77.8% and 78.4% of patients, respectively. Adverse events occurred in 13.5% of patients; perianal abscesses and proctalgia were the most frequently reported. CONCLUSION: Effectiveness data were higher than in clinical trials. The safety profile was reassuring, and patients' satisfaction was high. Appropriate patient selection, fistula preparation and expertise may help to achieve treatment success.

BACKGROUND: CT-P13, the first biosimilar monoclonal antibody to infliximab (IFX), has previously been confirmed to be efficacious in inducing mucosal healing in ulcerative colitis (UC) patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of CT-P13 therapy in maintaining mucosal healing in UC. METHODS: CT-P13 trough levels, antibody positivity, serum inflammatory markers as CRP level, fecal calprotectin at weeks 14 and 54, concomitant steroid and azathioprine therapy at the time of induction therapy and at weeks 14 and 54, previous use of anti TNF drug and the need of dose intensification as possible predictive factors for mucosal healing at week 54 were evaluated in this prospective study. RESULTS: 61 patients had already completed the 54-week treatment period. Mucosal healing was shown in 65.5 % and 62.1 %, complete mucosal healing was present in 31% and 38 % at week 14 and 54, respectively. The median values of CRP, leukocytes, thrombocytes, and albumin showed significant difference between baseline and week 54. Serum antibody positivity was proved in 6.5 % and 19.7 % of cases at week 14 and 54, respectively. CONCLUSION: Our study confirmed the long-term efficacy of CT-P13 therapy on mucosal healing in UC.

BACKGROUND: Safety data of the 'real life' use of an infliximab biosimilar, CT-P13 in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are still lacking. Our aim was to assess the frequency and characteristics of infusion reactions during CT-P13 therapy in 13 Hungarian and 1 Czech IBD centres. METHODS: Clinical and safety data was registered at fixed appointments. Trough levels and anti-drug antibody (ADA) concentration were measured by ELISA. Association between demographic, clinical, laboratory parameters and infusion reaction rates were evaluated statistically. RESULTS: Three hundred and eighty-four IBD patients were included. Twenty-eight Hungarian IBD patients (9.6%) developed infusion reaction during the treatment, 64.3% of them was previously exposed to anti TNF therapy. No infusion reaction occurred in the Czech population. CT-P13 therapy had to be stopped in 17 patients who developed infusion reaction and was switched to adalimumab in 12 patients. However in 39.3% of patients developing infusion reaction CT-P13 therapy was continued with the use of premedication. Cumulative ADA positivity rates were 8.7%, 19.3%, and 28.0% at weeks 0, 14, and 30. Previous anti-TNF-alpha exposure (30% vs. 3.1%, p < 0.001, OR 6.3 (2.7-14.6)) and ADA positivity (32.6% vs. 4.1%, p < 0.001, OR 19(5-73)) during the induction therapy were predictive factors for infusion reactions. CONCLUSIONS: Patients with previous exposure to anti-TNF-alpha and ADA positivity during the induction therapy were more likely to develop infusion reactions.
