Introduction: Ozanimod (OZA) is approved for the treatment of moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis (UC) based on results from the phase 3 True North (TN) study (NCT02435992). OZA efficacy was durable for up to ~5 years of continuous treatment (Week [W] 190 in the TN open-label extension [OLE]; NCT02531126). This interim analysis of the TN OLE evaluated the effect of prior biologic (bio) exposure on the durability of OZA efficacy.
Methods: OZA clinical responders at TN W52 who entered the OLE were analyzed (cutoff: January 10, 2024). The trajectories of total and partial Mayo scores were assessed during TN and the OLE. Efficacy outcomes were evaluated through OLE W190 using observed case (OC) and nonresponder imputation (NRI) analyses. Data were evaluated by prior bio exposure at TN baseline. Patients (pts) with prior exposure to Janus kinase inhibitors only were excluded.
Results: Of the 128 TN W52 clinical responders who entered the OLE and had information on prior bio exposure, 82 were bio-naive (51 were bio-naive and immunomodulator [IMM]-naive without concomitant corticosteroid [CS] use at TN baseline), 25 were exposed to 1 prior bio, and 21 were exposed to >1 prior bio. Baseline pt characteristics were generally similar among groups, except pts with prior bio exposure had longer disease duration and higher prior CS and IMM use than the bio-naive pts. Mean total and partial Mayo scores were high at TN baseline but reduced by OLE entry in all groups, regardless of prior bio exposure; mean scores were generally maintained and similar among groups at OLE W190 (Table). Symptomatic efficacy rates were generally maintained in most pts through OLE W190 regardless of prior bio exposure. Clinical and mucosal efficacy rates were maintained through OLE W190, regardless of prior bio exposure (NRI analysis) (Figure). Pts who were bio-naive generally had the highest efficacy rates; however, rates were comparable to those in pts exposed to 1 prior bio. Although OZA efficacy was durable in >1 prior bio-exposed pts, efficacy rates were lower compared with bio-naive pts and pts exposed to 1 prior bio. Similar overall trends were observed in the OC analysis.
Discussion: OZA efficacy was durable for up to ~5 years, regardless of prior bio exposure, in pts with moderately to severely active UC. Long-term OZA efficacy was comparable in bio-naive pts and in pts exposed to 1 prior bio.
