PERSISTENCE WHILE ON LABELED MAINTENANCE DOSE AMONG BIO-EXPERIENCED PATIENTS WITH CROHN’S DISEASE INITIATED ON USTEKINUMAB COMPARED TO ADALIMUMAB

In Crohn’s disease (CD), dose escalation on biologic therapy may be required to maintain effectiveness, while adverse events or non-response, among other factors, may lead to lack of persistence. Understanding persistence while on labeled maintenance dose is particularly important in bio-experienced patients with CD, as they may have reduced response to subsequent lines of therapy. This analysis compared persistence while on labeled maintenance dose among bio-experienced patients on ustekinumab versus adalimumab in the United States (US).
