This passage discusses the increased risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients, highlighting the potential different tumorigenesis pathway of IBD-associated CRC (IBD-CRC) compared to sporadic CRC. It also emphasizes the important role of immunomodulators and biologics in interfering with the inflammatory process involved in carcinogenesis for treating IBD patients.
Increased risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients has been attributed to long-standing chronic inflammation, with the contribution of genetic alterations and environmental factors such as the microbiota. Moreover, accumulating data indicate that IBD-associated CRC (IBD-CRC) may initiate and develop through a pathway of tumorigenesis distinct from that of sporadic CRC. This mini-review summarizes the current knowledge of IBD-CRC, focusing on the main mechanisms underlying its pathogenesis, and on the important role of immunomodulators and biologics used to treat IBD patients in interfering with the inflammatory process involved in carcinogenesis.
