Adherence to Anti-TNF Therapy in Inflammatory Bowel Diseases

Abstract: More than three-quarters of patients with IBD adhere to biologics. Predictors of nonadherence include female gender, smoking, constraints related to treatment, anxiety, and moodiness. These data could be used to develop intervention studies aimed at improving adherence to biologics in IBD.

“…It is also inferred that the both the polymorphism may have synergistic effect on the susceptibility and may work in tandem to influence the etiology of IBD in Saudi population. The outcome of present study will not only help in the prognosis of IBD in Saudi population but also provide guideline for the treatment with anti-TNF therapy as individuals with different genotypes of TNF-α (-308G/A) respond differently to anti-TNF-α treatment [136,137]. However, further studies are required involving other ethnic populations to strengthen these findings.…”

“…Disease activity should also be accessed using an infl ammatory marker [fecal calprotectin usually being more accurate than CRP, especially in ulcerative colitis (UC)] [42] and endoscopy. In addition, non-adherence to medications may occur in up to 29% in IBD patients on anti-TNFs [43].…”

“…In the studies performed to date, up to 40% of patients with symptoms suggestive of exacerbation do not present active inflammation. We should examine the patient's treatment adherence, estimating that up to 17.4% of patients do not comply with the prescribed biologic treatment [79]. Once these 2 clinical conditions have been ruled out, measuring the levels can more effectively guide our treatment.…”
