In adults with type 2 diabetes and active chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT-2is) and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) may also reduce the risk of COPD exacerbations, according to a study.

Among the many biologics used to treat adults with moderate-to-severe Crohn’s disease (CD), infliximab subcutaneous (SC) 120 mg every 2 weeks (Q2W) demonstrates the highest efficacy in clinical remission during maintenance treatment of 52 to 64 weeks’ duration, according to the results of a recent study presented at CCC 2025.

Initial findings from the ongoing VIVID-2 open-label extension (OLE) study comprising week 52 endoscopic responders from the phase III VIVID-1 trial demonstrate the long-term clinical and endoscopic efficacy of the selective anti-interleukin-23p19 monoclonal antibody mirikizumab for the treatment of moderate-to-severe active Crohn’s disease (CD).

Escalating the dose of subcutaneous (SC) CT-P13, a biosimilar of infliximab, from 120 to 240 mg every 2 weeks appears to bring back the efficacy of the drug in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) who no longer respond to treatment, suggests a study presented at 2025 Crohn's & Colitis Congress.
