Using Vedolizumab-800CW to Gain Insight Into Local Drug Distribution and Mucosal Target Cells in IBD Patients (VISION)
Using Fluorescently Labeled Vedolizumab to Visualize Local Drug Distribution During Colonoscopy and Identify Mucosal Target Cells in Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Summary Vision Study
Crohn's Disease (CD) and Ulcerative Colitis (UC) are chronic idiopathic inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). Vedolizumab is a humanized monoclonal antibody against α4β7 integrin, capable of blocking the migration of several immune cells across endothelium expressing MAdCAM-1. Vedolizumab is expensive and primary non-response is high in both CD and UC. Currently there are no predictors of response to vedolizumab and the actual mechanism of action has not yet been elucidated. To clarify the mechanism of action and gain better understanding of the high primary non-response rates, the University Medical Center Groningen (UMCG) developed a tracer fluorescently labeling vedolizumab. This study aims to gain insight into vedolizumab distribution and concentrations in the gut. The current study aims to identify the vedolizumab target cells in the inflamed gut mucosa using quantitative fluorescence molecular imaging (FMI). By gaining insight into local vedolizumab concentrations, drug distribution and by discovering target cells, we expect to gain insight into the mechanism of action of vedolizumab.
