Model‐informed dose optimization of etrasimod in ulcerative colitis across CYP2C9 genotypes and hepatic impairment

People with ulcerative colitis taking etrasimod may have higher drug levels if they have certain CYP2C9 genotypes or significant liver impairment; dose adjustments could be needed to avoid increased exposure.

Tacrolimus Bridging and Combination Therapy Following Infliximab and JAK Inhibitor Failure in Ulcerative Colitis: A Case Series.

Patients with UC who fail both anti-TNF and JAK inhibitor therapies have limited options. This report suggests tacrolimus can be used as a short-term bridge or in combination to reach another maintenance drug, with many...

The efficacy and safety of etrasimod as a first-line advanced therapy for ulcerative colitis: prespecified and post hoc subgroup data from the ELEVATE UC clinical program.

This abstract reports that etrasimod improved multiple measures of disease activity versus placebo in patients who had inadequate response to conventional UC therapies, indicating it may be a useful first-line advanced...
