8 Oxford Inflammatory Bowel Disease MasterClass 5ASA in ulcerative colitis

9 5ASA for induction and maintenance of remission in UC

10 Oral 5ASA for induction of remission in UC Summary of findings 5ASA superior to placebo & no more effective than sulphasalazine 5ASA dosed once daily as effective & safe as conventionally dosed 5ASA do not appear to be any differences in efficacy or safety among the various 5ASA formulations Daily 2.4g appears to be effective and safe induction for mild to moderate UC Patients with moderate disease may benefit from initial dose of 4.8g/day

11 Oral 5ASA for maintenance of remission in UC Summary of findings 5ASA superior to placebo for maintenance therapy 5ASA inferior to sulphasalazine* for maintenance 5ASA dosed once daily as effective and safe as conventionally dosed 5ASA for maintenance do not appear to be any differences in efficacy or safety among the various 5ASA formulations Patients with extensive UC/ frequent relapses may benefit from higher maintenance doses * Role in enteropathic arthropathy, particularly peripheral involvement / early disease; Side effects: allergic reactions and intolerance (up to 20%) sulphapyridine

14 How to optimise 5-ASA Maximise dose 1 5-ASA 4.8 g/d is better than 2.4 g/d at inducing clinical response or complete remission Optimise 5-ASA Combine oral and rectal 5-ASA 2 5-ASA combined oral and rectal therapy is better than oral therapy alone Extended duration of treatment 3 60% of patients achieved remission after a further 8 weeks of 5-ASA therapy 1.

22 Oral 5ASA for induction of remission in CD 310 patients. CDAI = Randomised to Pentasa 1g, 2g, 4g /day or placebo Δ CDAI Δ CDAI Ileal disease Remisssion (%) Pentasa 4g/day meta-analysis of 3 studies 2 :pentasa superior to placebo? How relevant reduction in CDAI (63) 1 Singleton Gastroenterology 1993;104: Hanauer Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol 2004:

23 Oral 5ASA for maintenance of remission in CD 12/12 6 trials ASA 362/663 Placebo 370/676 24/12 1 trial ASA 54/80 Placebo 55/81 Akobeng Cochrane Database Syst Rev (1):CD003715

24 Oral 5ASA in prevention in post-operative CD Sulfasalazine Mesalazine Relapse rates were reported after 1 to 3 years. All trials used 3 g sulfasalazine per day. Relapse occurred in 125/225 (55.6%) receiving sulfasalazine 133/223 (59.6%) on placebo / no therapy. RR of relapse with sulfasalazine: 0.97 (95%CI= ) Relapse rates were reported after 48 weeks to 3 years. One trial used 2.4g of mesalamine, 5 trials used 3g/day or more. Relapse occurred in 152/415 (36.6%) receiving mesalamine 191/419 (45.6%) on placebo or no therapy. RR of relapse with mesalazine: 0.80 (95%CI= ) NNT to prevent relapse in one patient was 10 (95%CI=6 25). Combined RR=0.86 (95%CI= ) NNT=13 (95%CI=7 50) Ford Am J Gastroenterol 2010

25 Summary 5ASA in CD Induction While sulphasalazine may be (slightly) effective at inducing remission in (colonic) CD, less evidence for 5ASA and different disease locations Maintenance Little evidence to support 5ASA in maintenance of (medically induced) remission Post-operative prevention 5ASA is mildly effective at preventing post-operative recurrence - NNT > 10

37 PPAR-γ 5-ASA = ligand for PPARγ partially explains efficacy in UC PPAR-γ nuclear receptor controls expression of regulatory genes in lipid metabolism/ insulin sensitisation AND it directly interfere with activities of transcriptional factors such as NF-kB Negatively regulates gene expression of pro-inflammatory genes (e.g. TNF)

38 PPAR-γ: a target for IBD therapy? TZDs (thia-zolidine-diones) e.g. rosiglitazone = PPAR-gamma agonist used in Type II DM marketing authorisation suspended by EMA cardiovascular risks Lewis JD et al, AJG, patients with mild-moderate refractory UC were given rosiglitazone Clinical remission achieved in 4/15 (27%), endoscopic remission in 3/15 (20%). Liang et al, WJG, 2008 Randomized multicentre, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial comparing rosiglitazone versus placebo 12 weeks of therapy in 105 patients with mild-mod UC Clinical remission (Mayo score of 2 or less) in 9 patients (17%) in rosiglitazone group vs 1 (2%) in placebo group

39 New PPAR-γ agonist in treatment of IBD 5-ASA analogues with stronger affinity for PPAR-γ Synthetic modulator, GED (or GED ) has fold higher PPAR activation than 5-ASA in vitro In experimental models of colitis, GED demonstrated similar antiinflammatory effect to 5-ASA used at 30 fold-higher concentration In phase I - non of the study subjects (n=24) experienced adverse effects such as CHF, fractures, weight gain or peripheral oedema Currently under Phase II trial Reviewed in Bertin et al.
