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