What is a treat-to-target approach?Lessons from other therapy areas
Rationale for a treat-to-target approach in IBD: Disease course modification as a realistic goal in IBD
Implementation of a treat-to-target approach in IBD
Evidence for a treat-to-target approach in IBD:REACT, POCER and now CALM
Summary
Aim: To avoid development of serious complications and disability in patients with chronic conditions
Concept: Treating to a pre-defined treatment target that is associated with optimal long-term outcomes (goal-oriented approach)
Strategy: Ongoing and regular monitoring of the target and/or surrogate marker, with optimisation of treatment when the target is not met
Additional principles: All components target, treatment and monitoring are tailored to the needs of
the individual patient De-escalation of therapy may be considered when treatment goals are achieved
Bouguen G et al. Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol 2015;13:1042-50; McKloskey et al. Int J Clin Rheumatol 2015;10:1-4.
A T2T approach involves pre-defining a treatment target, in consultation with the patient,
continuously monitoring disease activity,and modifying treatment until the target is reached
T2T is well established in clinical practice

T2T recommendations exist,with emerging evidence
Psoriasis

Psoriatic arthritis1,2
Remission / inactive disease of musculoskeletal involvement, with consideration of extra-articular manifestations,
or low/minimal disease activity

Therapeutic advances have improved treatment outcomes and led to the proposal of stringent treatment targets
Treatment algorithms are based on treatment targets
Frequent monitoring allows treatment optimisation within specific timeframes
Treatment targets should be tailored to the individual patient to optimise outcomes and minimise risk
Target choice and therapeutic changes should be shared physician–patient decisions
Information technology (electronic data capture, interactive algorithms and score calculation) can help integrate T2T into routine clinical practice
Disease course modification as a realistic goal in IBD
CD and UC are chronic progressive conditions, with a major clinical and patient burden
Ongoing inflammatory activity results in the accumulation of bowel damage, which leads to complications and disability

Ongoing inflammatory activity in the gut results in the accumulation of bowel damage in CD, which leads to complications and disability1
There is often a disconnection between clinical symptoms and underlying mucosal inflammation in CD2
Several studies have shown the importance of mucosal healing for long-term outcomes in CD3 and UC4
Recommended treatment targets in CD and UC now include both clinical remission and endoscopic remission5

WINDOW OFOPPORTUNITY
Early effective treatmentreduces inflammatory activity
and bowel damage
Onset Diagnosis Early disease
CD and UC are chronic progressive diseases ongoing inflammation drives accumulation of bowel damage, leading to complications and disability
Early intervention is important to avoid complications in patients at high risk of progression
Control of symptoms is essential, but does not alter the natural history of IBD
Today’s treatments can treat beyond symptoms and heal the intestinal mucosa Mucosal healing is associated with improved long-term outcomes
Available biomarkers provide adjunctive measures of inflammation
Tools are available to measure bowel damage and assess the long-term effectiveness of new treatments and algorithms
Bouguen G, et al. Clin Gastroenterol Hepatol 2015;13:1042-50;. Pariente B, et al. Gastroenterology 2015;148:52–63; Peyrin-Biroulet L, et al. Gut 2012;61:241-47.
How can we ensure optimal and timely use of available treatments, for good disease control and improved outcomes?
Need for a target-driven treatment strategy
REACT, POCER and now CALM

Higher rate of mucosal healing and deep remission in early Crohn’s disease
when treating to a target of biomarkers levels (CRP and faecal calprotectin), compared with symptom-driven clinical management (CALM)1
Lower rate of hospitalisation, surgery and complications in patients with established Crohn’s disease
with use of an early combined immunosuppression algorithmic approach, treating to the target of clinical remission, compared with a conventional approach (REACT)2
Lower rate of endoscopic recurrence in postoperative Crohn’s disease
with early colonoscopy and treatment step-up for endoscopic recurrence, compared with risk-stratified drug therapy alone (POCER)3
In algorithm-driven, prospective treatment studies with adalimumab,the T2T approach has been associated with a:
• CALM is the first study to demonstrate that a T2T approach(using the CRP and faecalcalprotectin targets) leads to superior endoscopic and deep remission outcomes in CD compared with symptom-driven care
• Managing only the clinical symptoms of CD does not adequately control underlying inflammation
• Escalation of adalimumab treatment did not lead to increased safety signals
In algorithm-driven, prospective treatment studies with adalimumab,the T2T approach has been associated with a:

Lower rate of endoscopic recurrence in postoperative Crohn’s disease
with early colonoscopy and treatment step-up for endoscopic recurrence, compared with risk-stratified drug therapy alone (POCER)3
In REACT, early combined immunosuppression (ECI) with adalimumab with treatment decisions based on symptoms was associated with significantly lower rates of surgery, hospitalisation and complications than conventional management in patients with a median Crohn’s disease duration of >12 years
No significant difference between treatment approaches for symptomatic remission at 12 months, although the remission rate was consistently higher in the ECI group through follow-up Symptoms may not be the most relevant outcome in CD
No difference in safety outcomes between treatment approaches Rates of serious infection were low
Data support the use of an aggressive algorithmic approach in community GI practice to decrease the risk of serious CD-related complications and surgery

Lower rate of endoscopic recurrence in postoperative Crohn’s disease
with early colonoscopy and treatment step-up for endoscopic recurrence, compared with risk-stratified drug therapy alone (POCER)3
POCER investigated T2T with a target of normal mucosal endoscopy
Treating patients with postoperative CD according to clinical risk of recurrence, with early colonoscopy and treatment step-up for recurrence, was superior to standard care
Treatment intensification at 6 months brings some patients into remission 1 year later
Clinical risk factors predicted recurrence, but patients at low risk also need monitoring
Early endoscopic remission did not guarantee long-term endoscopic remission, and ongoing monitoring is still needed
Faecal calprotectin is a good marker for monitoring for recurrence
De Cruz P, et al. Lancet 2015;385:1406–17; Wright EK, et al. Gastroenterology, 2015;148:938-47.
T2T has been shown to improve long-term patient outcomes in several chronic, progressive diseases
In IBD, a T2T approach may prevent the development of disease complications, surgery, bowel damage and disability, and may therefore achieve the ultimate target of improved patient QoL
Treatment targets in CD and UC have been defined, based on patient-reported outcomes and endoscopic remission, and may be tailored to the individual patient and their disease
Evidence for a T2T approach in IBD is accumulating from algorithm-driven prospective studies
Ongoing and future studies will evaluate the impact of a T2T approach on long-term disease outcomes, with treatment decisions based on objective measures of inflammation
Remember: Ultimate target is to return to normal life
Think about long-term outcomes1
Diagnose early
Assess prognosis to identify patients needing early intervention2
Adopt a treat-to-target approach, based on CALM algorithms4
Rapid step-up approach
Optimised therapy
Tight monitoring of objective signs of inflammation (mucosal healing, or surrogate markers like FCP or CRP)
