Cure8 trial brief
Why This Matters
Real-world PSP registries can show how long people stay on vedolizumab and how it’s used alongside or compared with other advanced therapies like tofacitinib. That information can help patients and clinicians understand treatment persistence outside clinical trials.
Who Should Pay Attention
Adults with IBD (Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis), patients receiving vedolizumab, clinicians who prescribe biologics, researchers studying real-world biologic use and treatment persistence.
Study Snapshot
What To Know
This is a completed, non-interventional observational study (patient support program registry) of adults with ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease in Brazil who received vedolizumab IV or SC.
The study collected retrospective and prospective PSP data to measure treatment persistence and related real-world outcomes; tofacitinib and other advanced therapies were listed for comparison of persistence.
The record describes enrollment cohorts, inclusion criteria, planned enrollment, primary outcome (treatment persistence up to ~9 years), and that no interventional treatment was administered as part of the study. The data source is the PSP database in Brazil and the study duration was ~26 months for the observational follow-up.
Because this is an observational registry record, it reports study design and outcomes of interest rather than trial-driven efficacy results or safety findings. For individual treatment decisions, patients should consult their care team and look for published analyses from the registry.
Keep In Mind
This is a registry/observational study record from ClinicalTrials.gov (sponsored by Takeda) describing design and planned/collected endpoints; it does not itself present detailed study results in this record. As an observational PSP review, data quality depends on program records and participant-reported information.
