Background And Aims: Previously published long-term safety data reported a favourable ustekinumab safety profile for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease [IBD]. We present the final cumulative safety data from pooled ustekinumab IBD phase 2/3 clinical studies through 5 years in Crohn's disease [CD] and 4 years in ulcerative colitis [UC].

Methods: In phase 3 studies, patients received a single intravenous placebo or ustekinumab [130 mg or ~6 mg/kg] induction dose followed by subcutaneous maintenance doses of placebo or ustekinumab [90 mg q8w or q12w].

Background: While no adverse developmental outcomes were observed in preclinical animal studies, limited data exist regarding effects of ustekinumab on human pregnancies. Previously, no data have been reported for women treated with ustekinumab in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) clinical trials and corresponding pregnancy outcomes. Here, we present pregnancy outcomes from IBD clinical trials, incorporating 5 years of treatment in Crohn's disease (CD) and 2 in ulcerative colitis (UC).

Guselkumab, an interleukin-23 antagonist, is approved for self-administration with the UltraSafe Plus™ syringe to treat moderate-to-severe plaque-type psoriasis. We evaluated the efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics, and acceptability of guselkumab administered using a novel patient-controlled injector (One-Press) in psoriasis patients. This Phase 3, multicentre, double-blind, placebo-controlled study (ORION, Clinicaltrials.

Introduction: Theoretical risks of biologic agents remain under study.

Objective: The aim of this study was to integrate 1-year safety data from 12 ustekinumab registrational trials.

Methods: Patients had moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis, active psoriatic arthritis (PsA) (± methotrexate), or moderate-to-severe Crohn's disease (CD; failed/intolerant of immunomodulators/corticosteroids).

Background: The efficacy and safety profile of ustekinumab with up to three years of exposure suggested a favorable benefit-risk profile in patients with moderate to severe psoriasis.

Objective: To evaluate the safety of ustekinumab in patients with moderate to severe psoriasis treated for up to four years.

Methods: Safety data were pooled across four Phase II/III randomized controlled trials.

Liver X-receptor (LXR) agonists have been postulated to enhance reverse cholesterol transport (RCT), a process believed to shuttle cholesterol from the periphery back to the liver. Enhancing RCT via the upregulation of cholesterol transporters such as the adenosine triphosphate-binding cassettes ABCA1 and ABCG1 could therefore inhibit the progression of atherosclerosis. LXR-623 is a synthetic ligand for LXRs alpha and beta that has shown promise in animal models of atherosclerosis.
