Identify Predictors That Distinguish Between Tofacitinib Responders and Non-responders Based on Genotype and Cellular and Molecular Profiles From Pinch Biopsies, Blood and Stool Samples
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a prospective cohort study enrolling ulcerative colitis patients who initiate tofacitinib therapy. Investigators will collect clinical data, blood and stool samples prior to initiation of tofacitinib and, at minimum, monthly after the start of therapy. They will collect tissue from colonoscopies prior to initiation of therapy and within 6 months on therapy. Clinical characteristics and response to treatment will then be associated with genotype, blood immune profiles, stool microbiota, and cellular and molecular profiles of the biopsies to generate a treatment response model. Using predictors identified in our model, we will then attempt to validate the model and findings with the OCTAVE (Pfizer), SPARC (CCF), and RISK (CCF) data.

Patients Treated with Tofacitinib Microbiota profiling by 16S sequencing RNA-seq transcriptional profiling of the blood and biopsy samples Immunological profiling by multi-parameter flow cytometry |
Diagnostic Test: GWAS analysis by Illumina BeadChip
will generate comprehensive genotype data for patients. Samples will be used for transcriptional profiling, microbiota profiling by 16S analysis and immunological profiling by flow cytometry
