Effect of IBD medications on COVID-19 outcomes: results from an international registry

Ryan C. Ungaro et al.

Summary: Combination therapy and thiopurines may be associated with an increased risk of severe COVID-19, while no significant differences were observed when comparing classes of biologicals. These findings warrant confirmation in large population-based cohorts.

Prevalence and Outcomes of COVID-19 Among Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease-A Danish Prospective Population-based Cohort Study

Mohamed Attauabi et al.

Summary: Patients with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases, including IBD, were less susceptible to COVID-19 compared to patients without such diseases, and use of immunosuppressive therapies or disease activity of IBD did not affect the disease course of COVID-19.

The Impact of Vedolizumab on COVID-19 Outcomes Among Adult IBD Patients in the SECURE-IBD Registry

Manasi Agrawal et al.

Summary: The study found that COVID-19 outcomes in IBD patients on VDZ were comparable to those on all other therapies. Compared to anti-TNF monotherapy, VDZ monotherapy was more likely to result in hospitalization, but less likely to result in severe COVID-19. Overall, VDZ appears to be safe in IBD patients with COVID-19.

Tumor necrosis factor inhibitors are associated with a decreased risk of COVID-19-associated hospitalization in patients with psoriasis-A population-based cohort study

Khalaf Kridin et al.

Summary: This study found that patients with psoriasis treated with tumor necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi) have a comparable risk of COVID-19 infection but a lower risk of hospitalization compared to methotrexate and ustekinumab. There was no significant difference in COVID-19 mortality among the different treatment groups. TNFi may be a viable option for patients with moderate-to-severe psoriasis during the pandemic.

Risk of common infections in people with inflammatory bowel disease in primary care: a population-based cohort study

Peter M. Irving et al.

Summary: The study evaluated the risk of common infections in individuals with inflammatory bowel disease compared with matched controls in a UK primary care population. It found that people with IBD are more likely to present with a wide range of common infections, with ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease patients having higher infection risks. Treatment with oral glucocorticoid therapy, immunotherapies, and biologic therapy was associated with increased infection risk in IBD patients.
