1 Strategies for changing the course of Crohn s disease Maria T. Abreu, MD University of Miami Miller School of Medicine Miami, Florida Where we are now and where we want to be Diagnosis (usually endoscopy) Serology (children) CRP/ESR Disease prognosis (clinical parameters) First visit: IBD panel Serotype Genotype Phenotype IBD subtype Disease prognosis Treatment based on symptoms +/- endoscopic inflammation Patient-specific treatment plan Integrated target-specific therapy 1 Abreu 1

2 Aggressive disease does not mean it doesn t respond to therapy Mild disease Responds well to therapy Does not respond well to therapy Aggressive disease Genetics of IBD: 163 confirmed loci NOD2 PTPN22 CD genes 3 CD specific loci 11 IBD loci Common pathways: Leprosy Mycobacterial susceptibility Other immunemediated disease UC genes 23 UC specific loci MHC Genes in common Jostins, L. et al. Nature 491, (1 November 212) 2 Abreu 2

3 IBD pathogenesis Crohn s disease-like Ulcerative colitis-like Crohn s activating infections Colonization (bacteria, viruses, fungi, worms) Loss of protective flora Crohn s specific genes (Nod2) Core genes Regulating Inflammation, Epithelial barrier, autophagy, etc UC specific genes Can we use serologies and genetic markers to predict disease behavior? 3 Abreu 3

4 Impact of Therapy will Depend on Degree of Structural Damage & Velocity of Progression 1 9 High Potential Low Potential Cum mulative Probability (%) Penetrating Inflammatory Stricturing Months Patients at risk: N = Cosnes J et al. Inflamm Bowel Dis. 22;8:244. Cumulative Probability of Surgical Intervention in CD 1 8 Probability (%) ±2 SD 3 surgeries later Who cares? D Years Events (no.) Munkholm P, et al. Gastroenterology. 1993;15: Abreu 4

5 How do biomarkers hold up Test Diagnosis Prognosis Active disease Serologies Good Better So-so Genetics Not good Best in No role combination with serologies CRP Not good Not good Ok in an individual patient if tracks with disease Stool studies Good in right clinical setting Not good Good for colonic disease; less for (children) ileal disease Are serological markers such as anti-glycan antibodies, anti- saccharomyces, ASCA, etc. useful in defining disease activity and response to therapy? Not useful for disease activity or response to therapy 5 Abreu 5
