Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Vedolizumab (VDZ) is a humanized immunoglobulin G1 monoclonal antibody acting against α4β7 integrin which modulates lymphocyte trafficking in the gut.

Results from the adult GEMINI-1 and GEMINI-2 trials demonstrated clinical efficacy in induction and maintenance of remission in both ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), respectively.

Recent real life cohorts in adults support the effectiveness of VDZ in inducing and maintaining remission, both in CD and UC. In pediatrics, there are very limited data on the use of VDZ besides two retrospective case series.

Data on immunogenicity and therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of VDZ is conflicting in adults and practically non-existent in children.

The investigators aim to prospectively explore the real life short and longer term outcomes of VDZ in pediatric IBD (including growth) and to develop a prediction model for treatment success based on VDZ trough levels and other clinical and laboratory variables.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a multi-center prospective cohort study in which the investigators are aim to enroll 140 children under the age of 18 years, diagnosed with CD, inflammatory bowel disease unclassified (IBDU) or UC (approximately 70 in UC/IBDU and 70 in the CD group) who commenced on Vedolizumab for any reason at the discretion of the treating physician.

Patients will be followed up to 3 years at 8 different time points: week 0, week 2, week 6, week 14, week 30, week 54 (1 year), week 108 (2 years) and week 162 (3 years). Blood work will be collected at each visit during the time of venous access insertion for the drug infusion for serum and stool sample will be collected at visits 0, 14, 30, and 54. In addition, at week 0 and 14 whole blood will be collected into a PaxGene tube for gene expression analysis.
