Coloring in SUCRA columns is based on SUCRA value; values of 100% are green in color, values of 0% are red in color, intermediates values are colored along the green-to-red gradient. Abbreviations: AM, adapted Mayo score; BID, twice daily; CrI, credible interval; IV, intravenous; NA, not available; NMA, network meta-analysis; OR, odds ratio; PBO, placebo; Q#W, every # week; QD, once daily; RBS, rectal bleeding score; RE, random effects model; SC, subcutaneous; SFS, stool frequency score; SUCRA, surface under the cumulative ranking curve.

aTofacitinib studies (OCTAVE 1, OCTAVE 2, and OCTAVE Sustain) additionally required RBS=0 for clinical remission and for maintenance, bio-exposed was defined as bio-failed.

bIV dose based on body weight (~6 mg/kg) at week 0. Ustekinumab study (UNIFI) defined bio-exposed as bio-failed for clinical remission and endoscopic improvement.

cOral 0.23 mg QD for 4 days, 0.46 mg QD for 3 days, then 0.92 mg QD starting on day 8. Ozanimod study (TRUE NORTH) used AM to define clinical response (decrease in AM ≥2% and ≥35% from baseline, and a decrease in RBS ≥1 or an absolute RBS ≤1) and remission (SFS ≤1- and ≥1-point decrease from baseline, RBS = 0, and endoscopic subscore ≤1).

dIV doses at weeks 0, 2, and 6 for induction. Vedolizumab study (GEMINI) defined bio-exposed as bio-failed.

eSC 160 mg at week 0 and 80 mg at week 2, then 40 mg Q2W.

fMaintenance outcomes for adalimumab from the treat-through study ULTRA-2 were imputed to mimic re-randomized responder design outcomes.

gDenotes statistical significance (OR 95% CrI excludes 1). 95% CrIs can be found in Appendices 8 and 9.

hResults (medians with 95% CrI as applicable) displayed for ‘best-fitting’ model per fit statistics (RE for all outcomes) and ordered in descending (best to worst rank) SUCRA values for clinical response.
