Cure8 research brief
Why This Matters
This registry study offers real-world data on ozanimod effectiveness, persistence, and safety in UC patients, which can help patients and clinicians set expectations beyond clinical trial settings.
Who Should Pay Attention
Adults with ulcerative colitis; clinicians prescribing ozanimod or other small-molecule therapies; researchers studying real-world IBD treatment outcomes.
Study Snapshot
What To Know
This analysis used the Dutch ICC Registry to follow 42 patients (age ≥16) who started ozanimod in routine care. Among those with clinically active disease at baseline, 28.6% achieved clinical remission at week 24 using a conservative imputation method (mNRI); observed-case rates were higher (54.5%).
Treatment persistence was limited for many patients: 27/42 discontinued with a median treatment duration of 25 weeks. No serious adverse events were reported in this cohort. The study provides real-world effectiveness and safety data but reflects a small, selected patient group and uses registry-observed outcomes rather than randomized comparison.
Results are reported through week 104 but include missing-data handling (mNRI) and observed-case analyses.
Keep In Mind
Prospective observational data from a national registry; small sample size and selected population limit generalizability. Reported as posted content on Research Square with abstract-level depth.
