Effects of Vedolizumab in Patients With Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis and Inflammatory Bowel Diseases

Abstract: BACKGROUND & AIMS: Gut-homing lymphocytes that express the integrin a4b7 and CCR9 might contribute to development of primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC). Vedolizumab, which blocks the integrin a4b7, is used to treat patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), but there are few data on its efficacy in patients with PSC. We investigated the effects of vedolizumab in a large international cohort of patients with PSC and IBD. METHODS: We collected data from European and North American centers participating i… Show more

“…111,112 However, these series showed conflicting results regarding changes in alkaline phosphatase levels as a surrogate endpoint for liver disease activity. 111,[113][114][115] It must be noted that there were different limitations in these studies. The studies consisted of small numbers and heterogeneous groups, including both patients with and without ursodeoxycholic acid treatment, which could dampen the effect of changes in alkaline phosphatase.…”

“…Despite theoretically promising, the use of Vedolizumab, which antagonize MAdCAM-1 and its receptor α4β7 and it is approved for IBD treatment, did not show efficacy in patients with PSC and IBD (a phase 3 trial was retired in 2018). A retrospective study on Vedolizumab in patients with PSC and IBD also failed to reveal a positive signal (96).…”

“…CCL25, CCL28 and CXCL12) are detected in the portal areas [171][172][173], suggesting vedolizumab may represent a putative therapeutic agent in PSC. However, results of a small retrospective study (n = 34) and subsequently a larger international retrospective study (n = 102) in patients with PSC and IBD have been disappointing, showing no evidence for significant improvement of liver biochemistry in PSC [174,175]. Whether a dedicated trial of vedolizumab in PSC will be performed, is thus doubtful.…”
