Can we Rely on HLA to Predict Resistance to Biological Therapy in IBD Patients
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The investigators propose an observational study including patients with inflammatory bowel disease under biological therapy with anti-TNF, anti-integrin α₄β₇ or anti-interleukin 12-23 (Ustekinumab), followed by an external Gastroenterology consultation at Centro Hospitalar Tondela-Viseu.

Healthy Subjects Blood donors |
Genetic: HLA-DQA1*05 and DRB1
All patients will be asked to give blood samples to search for HLA-DQA1*05 and DRB1
|
IBD patients - under biological therapy Patients with IBD followed up in consultation on biological therapy with anti-TNF, anti-integrin α₄β₇ or anti-interleukin 12-23. |
Genetic: HLA-DQA1*05 and DRB1
All patients will be asked to give blood samples to search for HLA-DQA1*05 and DRB1
|
IBD patients - naive Patients newly diagnosed with IBD and need for biological therapy with anti-TNF, anti-integrin α₄β₇ or anti-interleukin 12-23, |
Genetic: HLA-DQA1*05 and DRB1
All patients will be asked to give blood samples to search for HLA-DQA1*05 and DRB1

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Response to biological therapy [36 months]
To assess whether the presence of the HLA-DQA1*05 and HLA DRB1 alleles in patients with inflammatory bowel disease is associated with primary failure or loss of response to biological therapy with anti-TNF (Infliximab and Adalimumab), anti-integrin α₄β₇ (Vedolizumab) or anti-interleukin 12-23 (Ustekinumab).
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Prevalence of HLA-DQ1*05 and DRB1 [36 months]
To determine the prevalence of HLA-DQ1*05 and DRB1 alleles in IBD population and to compare with a population of healthy blood donor patients.
