Model to predict which biologic works best for inflammatory bowel disease patients

Construction and Validation of a Predictive Model for the Efficacy of Different Biologics in Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Observational Peking University First Hospital · NCT07181525

This project will try to build a model that predicts which IBD patients are likely to respond to different biologic medicines using their clinical and lab data.

What this trial studies

Researchers will collect clinical characteristics, biomarker results, treatment details, and outcome data from a cohort of IBD patients treated at Peking University First Hospital. The focus is on patients receiving anti-cytokine or anti-integrin biologics during active disease. The assembled dataset will be analyzed with correlation analysis, multiple regression, and machine-learning methods to train and test predictive models of treatment response. The goal is to validate a tool that can help clinicians choose the most appropriate biologic for individual patients.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are IBD patients treated at Peking University First Hospital who are in an active disease phase, receive biologic therapy, and have baseline and follow-up clinical and biomarker data available.

Not a fit: Patients who have never received biologics, are in sustained remission, have other autoimmune diseases requiring biologics, or have severe complications such as malignancy or gastrointestinal perforation are unlikely to benefit from this project.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the model could help doctors choose the biologic most likely to work for each patient, reducing ineffective treatment, side effects, and cost.

How similar studies have performed: Previous studies using biomarkers and machine-learning to predict biologic response in IBD have shown some promising but inconsistent results and generally lack broad external validation.
