P006 The Relationship of Histological Remission With the Duration of the Anamnesis Ulcerative Colitis
BACKGROUND:
The objectives of the treatment of patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) in accordance with the STRIDE-I provision, involves endoscopic healing of the colon mucosa. Histological remission is associated with endoscopic healing, which can be a predictor of long-term results. Biological and cellular therapy is most effective in the early stages of the disease.
OBJECTIVE:
To assess the depth of histological remission with the duration of UC.
METHODS:
The biopsy material of 75 patients with total or left-sided UC of moderate severity and severe severity aged from 22 to 56 years (average age 31 ± 2.5 years), who were divided into groups depending on the therapy, was studied. The first group of patients with UC aged 22 to 51 years (Me-32) (n = 29) received anti-inflammatory therapy using mesenchymal stromal cell culture (MSCs) 2 million/kg; the second group of patients with UC (n = 27) aged 24 to 56 years (Me-38) received vedolizumab (VDB) according to the recommended scheme, the third group of patients with UC (n = 19) aged 27 to 52 years (Me-31) received MSCs+VDB. The achievement of histological remission was assessed by the score of Geboes (SG).
RESULTS:
In 1st group, patients who achieved histological remission (SG1) with a disease duration of more than 5 years - 14 (48.3%) patients, less than 5 years - 5 (17.2%) (95% CI 1.256 – 19.293; x2-7.635; p = 0.006). In the 2nd group of patients who achieved histological remission (SG1) with a disease duration of more than 5 years - 15 (55.5%) patients, less than 5 years - 4 (14.9%) (95% CI 1.262 - 20.615; x2-7.026; p = 0.009). In the 3rd group of patients who achieved histological remission (SG1) with a disease duration of more than 5 years - 4 (21.1%) patients, less than 5 years - 7 (36.8%) (95% CI 1.080 - 138.995; x2-4.968; p = 0.026).
CONCLUSION:
A statistically significant majority of patients who achieved histological remission, regardless of the therapy, had a disease duration of less than 5 years.
