Brief summary

Hyrimoz™ was developed as a biosimilar to HumiraTM (INN: adalimumab) and Zessly™ was developed as a biosimilar to RemicadeTM (INN: infliximab). Within the Biosimilar Development Program of Hyrimoz™ and Zessly™, two clinical confirmatory efficacy and safety studies were conducted: Hyrimoz™ in plaque psoriasis and Zessly™ in rheumatoid arthritis. Both confirmatory Phase III studies demonstrated equivalent efficacy and similar safety and immunogenicity of Hyrimoz™ to HumiraTM and Zessly™ to RemicadeTM, respectively. The current study is designed to provide a systematic and consistent overview of the real-world data in biologic-naïve patients with moderate-to-severe Crohn's disease (CD). The data collected in this observational trial will be used to increase the knowledge of the effectiveness of Hyrimoz™ and Zessly™ in clinical routine care in patients with moderate-to-severe CD.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
The proportion of patients in corticosteroid-free remission defined as HBI (Harvey-Bradshow Index) ≤ 4 at Week 52week 52This is a prospective, observational study that does not impose a therapy protocol, diagnostic or therapeutic procedure, or a visit schedule. Patients will be treated according to the local prescribing information, and routine medical practice in terms of visit frequency and types of assessments performed; only these data will be collected as part of the study.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Time to progression of a composite endpoint6 yearsComposite endpoint defined as the occurrence of one of the following events : * Disease-related surgery, or * Disease-related hospital admission for \> 3 days (including treatment-related side effects), or * Serious disease-related complications
Incidence of adverse events6 years• Incidence of Adverse Events (AE) in patients receiving Hyrimoz™ or Zessly™
Measurement of the Inflamatory Bowel Disease (IBD) index over an observation period4 years
Assessing QoL (Quality of Life scale) of patients receiving Hyrimoz™ or Zessly™ over an observation period4 years
Therapy persistence and treatment adherence (measured by the number of dose interruptions of Hyrimoz™ or Zessly™ without drug holidays more than 4 months).4 yearsObservational study
Assessing correlation of the diagnostic and treatment-monitoring procedures (imaging procedures and disease-related laboratory parameters) in patients receiving Hyrimoz™ or Zessly™ over an observation period4 years
