Cure8 trial brief
Why This Matters
The study tests mirikizumab in routine clinical practice against standard biologic therapies to see if it lowers healthcare needs and improves symptoms and quality of life for people with Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis.
Who Should Pay Attention
Adults with UC or Crohn’s disease, clinicians prescribing biologics in community GI practices, and researchers studying real-world comparative effectiveness of IBD biologics.
Study Snapshot
What To Know
This is a real-world, non-randomized interventional registry enrolling adults (≥21) with Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis who are eligible for biologic therapy but have not received mirikizumab.
Participants will receive mirikizumab per its approved dosing as part of a clinical care pathway or will receive standard biologic therapy chosen by their clinician. Data collection includes EHR-derived clinical data, routine labs, healthcare utilization, and patient-reported outcome questionnaires with follow-up through about 18 months.
The study excludes people with prior exposure to IL-23p19 antagonists or certain small-molecule IBD therapies and those with extensive colorectal resections. It is listed as Phase 4 and not yet recruiting at multiple community gastroenterology sites in the US.
Keep In Mind
This is a Phase 4 pragmatic interventional trial record (not yet recruiting) describing planned enrollment, eligibility, and outcomes; it does not present results. The registry entry limits enrollment to patients without prior IL-23p19 exposure and excludes prior use of some small-molecule therapies.
