Intestinal Alkaline Phosphatase (IAP) was investigated as a potential biomarker to monitor colitis in a mouse model of Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). We developed a Point-Of-Care (POC) assay to detect IAP with a glucose meter in 15 min. We synthesized a paracetamol-bearing compound specifically cleaved by IAP to release paracetamol, which can be detected with a personal glucometer. Interleukin 10 deficient (IL 10-/-) mouse model samples were used to compare the IAP level in mice with mild or severe colitis. The results showed that fecal IAP level was significantly lower in each mouse sample with severe colitis than with mild colitis. Mice treated with anti-Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha (anti-TNF-α) to decrease inflammation exhibited a much higher level of IAP than those without treatment (IAP levels from anti-TNF-α treated vs nontreated = 2.80 U vs 0.11 U, < 0.0001). Taken together, IAP can be considered as a potential biomarker to monitor colitis, and a rapid, user-friendly POC glucometer-based assay can be potentially used to monitor colitis levels and inflammation flareups in IBD.

From the Department of Surgery (Aljiffry, Dahal, Baeisa, Alzahrani, Saleem, Alshahrany), from the Department of Medicine (Hijji, Alsahafi, Alghamdi, Mosli), from the Faculty of Medicine (Aljiffry, Daha, Baeisa, Alzahrani, Alshahrany, Hijji, Alsahafi, Saleem, Alghamdi, Mosli), King Abdulaziz University, from the Inflammatory Bowel Disease Research Group (Alsahafi, Mosli), and from the Gastrointestinal Oncology Unit (Saleem, Alghamdi), King Abdulaziz University Hospital, Jeddah, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Objectives: To evaluate the features and frequency of hepatobiliary diseases in individuals with Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
Methods: This retrospective study included all IBD patients at King Abdulaziz University Hospital in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The primary focus was on the prevalence of hepatobiliary diseases, such as primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), autoimmune hepatitis (AIH), and others.

Vedolizumab (VDZ) is approved in the treatment of patients with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn's disease (CD). VDZ exhibits considerable variability in its pharmacokinetic (PK) profile, and its exposure-response relationship is not yet fully understood. The aim was to investigate the variability in VDZ trough levels and PK parameters, to assess the relationship between VDZ PK and biochemical response, as well as clinical and endoscopic outcomes.

Background: This study evaluated the long-term effectiveness and safety of a multidisciplinary early proactive therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) program combined with Bayesian forecasting for infliximab (IFX) dose adjustment in a real-world dataset of paediatric patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
Methods: A descriptive, ambispective, single-centre study of paediatric patients with IBD who underwent IFX serum concentration measurements between September 2015 and September 2023. The patients received reactive TDM before September 2019 (n = 17) and proactive TDM thereafter (n = 21).

The introduction of biological therapies has revolutionized inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) management. A critical consideration in developing these therapies is ensuring adequate drug concentrations at the site of action. While blood-based biomarkers have shown limited utility in optimizing treatment (except for TNF-alpha inhibitors and thiopurines), tissue drug concentrations may offer valuable insights.
