Crohn’s Disease | Treatment Algorithms: Claims Data Analysis | US | 2017

MARKET OUTLOOK

U.S. gastroenterologists generally follow a step-up approach when treating Crohn’s disease patients that begins with safe, albeit often less-efficacious, therapies (e.g., aminosalicylates) first line, before progressing to more-potent drugs, such as immunosuppressants and/or biologics. Among the biologics, the TNF-alpha inhibitors (e.g., Janssen/Merck’s Remicade, AbbVie/Eisai’s Humira), have—and continue to be—the most widely used agents. However, over the past two years, the Crohn’s diseases treatment landscape has witnessed the approval of two novel biologics (i.e., Takeda’s Entyvio and Janssen’s Stelara), leading to increasing competition among the biologics, and further expanding physicians’ treatment armamentarium.
