Endpoints for Combinations of Dual Biologic Therapy (DBT)

vedolizumab / ustekinumab 63% (5/8) 25% (2/8) 71% (5/7) 57% (4/7) 13% (1/8)
vedolizumab / TNF-antagonist 33% (4/12) 25% (3/12) 42% (5/12) 33% (4/12) 15% (2/13)

All DBT trials 43% (10/23) 26% (6/23) 50% (11/22) 41% (9/22) 13% (3/24)

Endoscopic endpoint data not yet available in four trials; three were considered failure of DBT due to surgery or entering a clinical trial (two vedolizumab/TNF-antagonist, one ustekinumab/TNF-antagonist) – one was awaiting follow-up but achieved clinical response (vedolizumab/TNF-antagonist).

PRO-2 unable to be calculated in two trials due to presence of an ostomy (one in vedolizumab/ustekinumab and one in vedolizumab/TNF-antagonist).
