Abstract excerpt
Background: Despite a high nonresponse rate, predictors of response to anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) therapy in ulcerative colitis (UC) remain limited. We aim to determine clinical and genetic predictors of primary nonresponse (PNR) and durable response (DR) to anti-TNF therapy in a large prospective UC cohort. Methods: Using the Illumina Immunochip, candidate polymorphisms associated with clinical...
