Abstract

Purpose: This systematic review and meta-analysis compared the efficacy, safety, and treatment persistence of vedolizumab and adalimumab in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

Methods: Through a comprehensive search of three databases up to September 2024, we calculated pooled effect estimates for binary outcomes using risk ratios (RR) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Heterogeneity was evaluated using Cochran's I2 and Q statistics, with a random-effects model applied when I2 exceeded 50%, and a fixed-effects model used otherwise. For randomized trials, the Cochrane Risk of Bias Tool was applied; the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale assessed nonrandomized trials.

Results: We analyzed 12 studies involving 4095 patients. The findings showed that vedolizumab had higher clinical remission and response rates compared to adalimumab (RR: 1.24, 95% CI 1.14-1.34, P < 0.01; RR: 1.11, 95% CI 1.01-1.22, P = 0.03). However, no significant differences were observed in endoscopic remission between the two treatments (RR: 0.74, 95% CI 0.47-1.18, P = 0.21). Safety outcomes, based on adverse and serious adverse event rates, have no significant differences (RR: 0.67, 95% CI 0.41-1.12, P = 0.13; RR: 0.78, 95% CI 0.36-1.68, P = 0.53). Treatment persistence also showed no significant difference between vedolizumab and adalimumab (RR: 0.78, 95% CI 0.55-1.12, P = 0.19).

Conclusions: Our study suggests that vedolizumab may be more effective than adalimumab in alleviating symptoms and achieving clinical response. Importantly, this effectiveness is achieved without an increase in adverse events. No significant difference was found in treatment persistence. However, high heterogeneity may weaken the evidence, requiring further randomized trials for confirmation.

期刊介绍: Inflammopharmacology is the official publication of the Gastrointestinal Section of the International Union of Basic and Clinical Pharmacology (IUPHAR) and the Hungarian Experimental and Clinical Pharmacology Society (HECPS). Inflammopharmacology publishes papers on all aspects of inflammation and its pharmacological control emphasizing comparisons of (a) different inflammatory states, and (b) the actions, therapeutic efficacy and safety of drugs employed in the treatment of inflammatory conditions. The comparative aspects of the types of inflammatory conditions include gastrointestinal disease (e.g. ulcerative colitis, Crohn''s disease), parasitic diseases, toxicological manifestations of the effects of drugs and environmental agents, arthritic conditions, and inflammatory effects of injury or aging on skeletal muscle. The journal has seven main interest areas: -Drug-Disease Interactions - Conditional Pharmacology - i.e. where the condition (disease or stress state) influences the therapeutic response and side (adverse) effects from anti-inflammatory drugs. Mechanisms of drug-disease and drug disease interactions and the role of different stress states -Rheumatology - particular emphasis on methods of measurement of clinical response effects of new agents, adverse effects from anti-rheumatic drugs -Gastroenterology - with particular emphasis on animal and human models, mechanisms of mucosal inflammation and ulceration and effects of novel and established anti-ulcer, anti-inflammatory agents, or antiparasitic agents -Neuro-Inflammation and Pain - model systems, pharmacology of new analgesic agents and mechanisms of neuro-inflammation and pain -Novel drugs, natural products and nutraceuticals - and their effects on inflammatory processes, especially where there are indications of novel modes action compared with conventional drugs e.g. NSAIDs -Muscle-immune interactions during inflammation [...]
