Summary

This Canadian study is testing whether switching to the drug guselkumab (Tremfya) can help people with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) who didn't respond well enough to ustekinumab. Researchers will track symptoms, test results, and overall health in 200 participants over one year. The goal is to see if this switch can lead to better disease control without worsening endoscopic findings.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Guselkumab (Tremfya)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that switching to guselkumab is a good option for people with IBD who didn't get enough relief from ustekinumab, offering better symptom control.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a controlled trial, so results may be less definitive. It's also relatively small (200 people) and only follows participants for one year, so long-term benefits or risks are unknown.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Subjects of any gender aged ≥ 18. * Confirmed diagnosis of IBD (CD, UC, or IBDU) for at least 6 months prior to baseline visit. Subjects with IBDU will be grouped with subjects with UC. The CD proportion of patients will be capped at 75%. * Subjects have received ustekinumab for at least 14 weeks and who are currently on or recently discontinued ustekinumab therapy. * For subjects that have recently discontinued ustekinumab, the last dose of ustekinumab must have been within 12 weeks before Week 0, and no other advanced therapy (i.e., infliximab, adalimumab, golimumab, certolizumab pegol, vedolizumab, natalizumab, risankizumab, mirikizumab, tofacitinib, upadacitinib, ozanimod, etrasimod) was started since stopping ustekinumab. * Subjects with an inadequate response to ustekinumab who require a change in advanced therapy and are initiating guselkumab, as determined by the treating physician. * For subjects on off-label ustekinumab dosing (90 mg every 4 or 6 weeks (off-label dosing), enrollment will be capped at 60%. * Ability and willingness to give written informed consent and comply with the requirements of this study protocol. * Subjects who have evidence of ongoing endoscopic evidence of disease activity within 3 months prior to Week 0, defined as: * For Crohn's Disease: Colonoscopy showing SES-CD score (excluding the presence of narrowing component) of ≥6 (or ≥4 for participants with isolated ileal disease), OR presence of ulcers larger than 5 mm in any segment. * For Ulcerative Colitis: Colonoscopy showing Ulcerative Colitis Endoscopic Index of Severity (UCEIS) score ≥4, OR presence of erosions or ulcers in any segment. Exclusion Criteria: * History of prior exposure to any anti-p19 inhibitor (risankizumab or mirikizumab). * Subjects with formal contraindication to guselkumab per the drug label. * Use of guselkumab for an off-label indication, dosing regimen, or route of administration. Subjects who did not receive guselkumab induction will be excluded. * Subjects with an ostomy or ileo-anal pouch. * Subjects with a history of bowel surgery within 6 months prior to Week 0. * Subjects displaying clinical signs of acute severe UC, fulminant colitis or toxic megacolon within 3 months prior to Week 0. * Subjects who are expected to require bowel surgery by their IBD physician within the year of enrollment. * Subjects on 1 or more concomitant biologics. * Subjects with a history of colonic dysplasia (low-grade dysplasia, high-grade dysplasia, or colorectal cancer). Note: Patients with a history of indefinite for dysplasia would be eligible. * Subjects with formal contraindication or unwilling to undergo lower endoscopy. * The patient is considered by the Investigator, for any reason, to be an unsuitable candidate for the study.
