Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is the common cause of chronic gastrointestinal signs in dogs. The treatment possesses numerous difficulties due to the idiopathic nature of the disease. Conventional steroid therapy usually produces side effects on long term usage. Thus, there is a need for alternative therapies. When compared to human medicine, there is no published data on the use of budesonide and probiotic in the treatment of canine IBD in India. The present study was proposed to compare oral prednisolone, budesonide and probiotics in the management of canine inflammatory bowel disease. Methods: Thirty dogs with idiopathic IBD were selected and randomly grouped. They were subjected to therapy involving prednisolone, budesonide or probiotics. Clinical assessment was performed by calculation of the post treatment Clinical Inflammatory Bowel Disease Activity Index (CIBDAI) score, faecal score and endoscopy. Biochemical analysis of alkaline phosphatase and alanine transaminase were done to record side effects of steroid administration. Result: It was observed from the present study that both prednisolone and budesonide are equally effective in the management of IBD in dogs. Probiotics were found to be less effective when compared to prednisolone and budesonide in the treatment of IBD.

Abstract Background Azathioprine (AZA) is an immunosuppressive drug, which is metabolised in the liver and kidneys into 6-thioguanine- the form responsible for the therapeutic effect. Despite its anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and immunomodulating properties, azathioprine has also dose-related side effects, such as bone marrow suppression, liver damage and pancreatitis. The purpose of this study was to assess the usefulness of monitoring the concentration of azathioprine metabolites: 6-tioguanine (6-TG) and 6-methylmercaptopurine (6-MMP) in the group of paediatric patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and autoimmune hepatitis (AIH). Methods The clinical data of 46 paediatric patients (24 girls) with IBD and AIH, aged 8–17 years, hospitalised in the Department of Gastroenterology, who had undergone a blood examination for AZA metabolites concentration, were analysed. Results Initial mean dose of azathioprine was 1.23 mg/kg/day in IBD and 1.16 mg/kg/day in AIH. In 30% of patients, the concentrations of 6-TG and 6-MMP were within the normal range. Forty-eight per cent of patients required a dose change due to: elevated 6-TG concentration (32.6%) or underdosage (15.4%). After modification the mean dose was 1.16 mg/kg/day in IBD and 0.85 mg/kg/day in AIH. In 10.7 % of patients, the concentrations of 6-TG and 6 MMP were below the proper range, in the same percentage of patients metabolites were undetectable. Conclusion In a significant number of cases monitoring the concentration of AZA metabolites indicated the necessity to reduce the dose of AZA allowing to achieve the therapeutic optimum and prevent serious side effects. Receiving undetectable concentration of metabolites is a sign of non-compliance. The final doses of AZA were found to be lower than the recommended doses. Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM), which involves measurement of drug or active metabolite levels is a good strategy that can be used to optimise IBD and AIH therapeutics.

Although effective for both acute and often long term treatment of inflammatory bowel disease, systemically absorbed corticosteroids have a high incidence of side effects. This article briefly reviews the pharmacokinetics of corticosteroids and the strategics available for reducing systemic side effects. In particular, fluitcasone propionate is a fluorinated glucocorticoid, in which systemic side effects are absent or minimal due to its relatively low absorption and rapid first pass metabolism In an open trial in 12 patients with mild and moderately active Crohn's disease, administration of 20 mg fluitcasone propionate orally was associated with a significant fall in the Crohn's disease activity index and improvement in other parameters of inflammation, without change in either plasma cortisol levels or responsiveness to adrenocorticotropic hormone, suggesting that this drug is a promising therapy for Crohn's disease meriting evaluation against conventional corticosteroids.

Anti Inflammatory

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is caused by a dysregulated immune response against normal components of the intestinal microflora combined with defective functioning of anti-inflammatory pathways. Currently, all therapies approved for IBD manipulate the immune system by inhibiting pro-inflammatory mechanisms, such as tumor necrosis factor-α, gut-homing α4β7 integrin, interleukin-12/interleukin-23, and Janus kinases. However, some IBD patients are non-responders to these drugs, which are also associated with serious side effects. Thus, it has been hypothesized that therapies aimed at restoring anti-inflammatory signals, by exploiting the tolerogenic potential of cytokines (interleukin-10, transforming growth factor-β, granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor), immune cells (regulatory T cells, tolerogenic dendritic cells), or mesenchymal stem cells, might offer promising results in terms of clinical efficacy with fewer side effects. In this review, we provide new insights into putative novel treatments aimed at restoring anti-inflammatory signaling pathways in IBD.

Maintenance Of Remission

Abstract Background Azathioprine (AZA) and thiopurine are widely used for induction and maintenance of remission in steroid-dependent patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The aim of this study has been to investigate its efficacy and safety in maintaining steroid-free remission in steroid-dependent IBD patients eight years after the institution of treatment. Methods Data from consecutive IBD outpatients referred in our Institution, between 1985–2017, were reviewed and all patients treated with AZA were included in this retrospective study. AZA was administered at the recommended dose of 2–2.5 mg/kg. Results Out of 2992 consecutive IBD outpatients visited in the index period, AZA was prescribed to 446 patients, 245 (54.9%) were affected by Crohn’s disease (CD) and 201 (45.1%) by ulcerative colitis (UC). One hundred and ninety-six patients with a follow-up < 96 months were excluded from the study. Two hundred and fifty patients were evaluated, 140 (56%) with CD and 110 (44%) with UC. One hundred and thirty-eight (55.2%) were male and 112 (44.8%) female (average age of 35.48 ± 14.26 SD years, range 14–74 years). Eight year after the institution of treatment, 123 (49.2%) patients still were in steroid-free remission (82 CD vs. 41 UC, 58.6% and 37.3%, respectively, p = 0.0009), 71 (28.4%) had a relapse requiring retreatment with steroids (29 CD vs. 42 UC, 20.7% and 38.2%, respectively, p = 0.0030), 56 (22.4%) discontinued the treatment due to side effects (29 CD vs. 27 UC, 20.7% and 24.5%, respectively). The loss of response from first to eighth year of follow-up was low, about 21%. Conclusion Eight years after the onset of treatment about 50% of patients did not require further steroid courses. After the first-year loss of response was low in seven subsequent years. In the present series, the maintenance of steroid-free remission was significantly higher in CD than in UC patients. The occurrence of side effects leading to the withdrawal of AZA treatment has been low.
