Brief Summary

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

"RUN-CD" is an investigator initiated "Non interventional Trial" on biologics in Crohn´s Disease (CD) patients in Germany with a prospective documentation of effectiveness in induction and maintenance therapy of biologics, especially of Ustekinumab, with a special interest on predictors of long-term responses and favorable disease outcome and documentation of severe side effects caused by the therapy with biologics.

Detailed Description

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

The effectiveness and safety of induction and maintenance therapy of Ustekinumab and other biologics will be assessed in different relevant subgroups of Crohn's Disease patients. To this end, different confounders have to be considered. Patients followed-up for several years will likely receive changing treatments. These changes have to be taken into account. Furthermore, the decision to prescribe, to stop or to continue a treatment depends on the availability of treatment options and experiences with these alternatives:

1. Confounding by indication will be taken into account
2. Patient characteristics which likely influence the risk of developing a particular endpoint will be taken into account
3. The possible influence of co-medication will be considered
4. Changing risks over time will be considered
5. Power considerations needs to be conducted prior to the comparison of incidence rates
6. Appropriate statistical methods will be applied to deal with these challenges

The principles described above will be followed in a similar manner for the analysis of effectiveness and safety endpoints. An appropriate power analysis will be performed before each sub-analysis.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Group 1a

CD-patients (age at enrollment: 18-80 years) receiving a newly introduced Ustekinumab therapy (n=150). A prior therapy with biologics is not allowed.

No interventions assigned to this group

Group 1b

CD-patients (age at enrollment: 18-80 years) receiving a newly introduced Ustekinumab therapy (n=150). A prior therapy with 1 biologics is allowed

No interventions assigned to this group

Group 2

CD-patients (age at enrollment: 18-80 years) receiving a newly introduced Ustekinumab therapy (n=150). A prior therapy with ≥2 biologic is allowed.

Stelara, Remicade, Entyvio, Humira, Remsima, Flixabi, Inflectra

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL

The data of Crohn´s Disease (CD)-patients on Ustekinumab will be compared in an explorative analysis with CD-patients on other Biologics.

Group 3a

CD-patients (age at enrollment: 18-80 years) receiving a newly introduced biologics therapy other than Ustekinumab (n=150). A prior therapy with biologic is not allowed.

No interventions assigned to this group

Group 3b

CD-patients (age at enrollment: 18-80 years) receiving a newly introduced biologics therapy other than Ustekinumab (n=150). A prior therapy with 1 biologic is allowed.

No interventions assigned to this group

Group 4

CD-patients (age at enrollment: 18-80 years) receiving a newly introduced biologics therapy other than Ustekinumab (n=150). A prior therapy with ≥2 biologics is allowed.

Stelara, Remicade, Entyvio, Humira, Remsima, Flixabi, Inflectra

Intervention Type BIOLOGICAL
