Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic intermittent relapsing disorder of the large intestine and rectum. Treatment typically begins with conventional agents (e.g., 5-ASAs), which are often effective for those patients with mild to moderate disease, but then progresses to more-potent drugs, such as immunosuppressants and/or biologics, as needed. Among the biologics, TNF-alpha inhibitors (Janssen’s Remicade and AbbVie’s Humira) and the cell adhesion molecule (CAM) inhibitor (Takeda’s Entyvio) are the mainstays of treatment. However, therapies such as Pfizer’s Xeljanz / Xeljanz XR, the first approved oral Jak inhibitor, and Janssen’s Stelara are increasing the competition in the later-line settings.
