Abstract:
Background:With the increasing diversity of biological agents,the first-line biological agents for moderate-to-severe Crohn's disease(CD)and ulcerative colitis(UC)requires more precise positioning.Aims:To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of infliximab(IFX)and ustekinumab(UST)as first-line options for moderate-to-severe CD and UC.Methods:Randomized controlled trials(RCTs)on IFX and UST in treatment of moderate-to-severe CD and UC were retrieved from CNKI,Wanfang data,VIP,Chinese Science Citation Database and PubMed,Web of Science,Embase,ClinicalTrials,Cochrane Library from the date of database establishment to December 2023.An indirect meta-analysis was conducted to compare the efficacy and safety of IFX and UST in treatment of moderate-to-severe CD and UC.Results:Eleven RCTs were enrolled.No significant differences in clinical remission and maintenance rates of moderate-to-severe CD were found between IFX group and UST group(P>0.05),and no significant differences in serious adverse events and serious infection rates were found between these two groups(P>0.05).No significant differences in clinical remission and maintenance rates of moderate-to-severe UC were found between IFX group and UST group(P>0.05),and no significant differences in serious adverse events and serious infection rates were found between these two groups(P>0.05).Conclusions:Both IFX and UST can be served as first-line biological therapy for patients with moderate-to-severe CD.In view of the fact that IFX can increase the risk of tuberculosis,UST is recommended as first-line therapy for moderate-to-severe CD.For moderate-to-severe UC,IFX is an effective and safe first-line biological therapy,and UST can be served as an alternative.
