- Abstract
- Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by intestinal inflammation and epithelial injury. For the treatment of IBD, 5-aminosalicylic acids, corticosteroids, immunomodulators, and biologic agents targeting tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, alpha 4 beta 7-integrin, and interleukin (IL)-12/23 have been widely used. Especially, anti-TNF-alpha antibodies are the first biologic agents that presently remain at the forefront. However, 10-30% of patients resist biologic agents, including anti-TNF-alpha agents (primary non-responder; PNR), and 20-50% of primary responders develop treatment resistance within one year (secondary loss of response; SLR). Nonetheless, the etiologies of PNR and SLR are not clearly understood, and predictors of response to biologic agents are also not defined yet. Numerous studies are being performed to discover prediction markers of the response to biologic agents, and this review will introduce currently available therapeutic options for IBD, biologics under investigation, and recent studies exploring various predictive factors related to PNR and SLR.
