Abstract

Introduction: Treatment of Crohn's disease (CD) and axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) is challenging, with CD refractory to anti-TNF antibodies. Here, we present for the first time a case treated with dual-targeted therapy (DTT) using the anti-IL-23 monoclonal risankizumab and the anti-TNF antibody certolizumab pegol.

Case presentation: Our patient initially presented with axSpA at the age of 27. Nine years later, CD was diagnosed by the age of 36. One year after the diagnosis of CD, a spontaneous ileal perforation occurred as part of a disease course refractory to multiple anti-TNF antibodies and intolerance to immunomodulators. However, the axSpA showed a response to the anti-TNF certolizumab pegol. After stopping certolizumab pegol, we enrolled the patient into the M15-991 induction trial (MOTIVATE) and the maintenance trial (FORTIFY) testing the anti-IL-23 antibody risankizumab versus placebo in CD with failure to prior biological therapy. As a result, risankizumab induced a CD response but failed to control the axSpA. Considering the CD refractory and the axSpA responding to anti-TNFs, we initiated a DTT with risankizumab and certolizumab pegol. Risankizumab and certolizumab pegol together improved both CD and axSpA. As adverse events, there were only two episodes of spontaneously resolving common colds during the 19-month reviewed period.

Conclusion: DTT using risankizumab and certolizumab pegol is effective in CD and axSpA without serious adverse events in our patient. Combining biologicals that target specific pathways in immune-mediated diseases promises excellent potential in CD associated with extraintestinal manifestations.
