PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which includes ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn’s disease, reduces patients’ quality of life and is associated with substantial medical, financial, and social burdens. More than 3 million people in the US and Europe are estimated to have IBD. Despite recent advances in therapies, clinicians are still faced with challenges in treating and managing their patients with IBD. Clinicians must choose from a vast array of agents in a variety of drug classes with different mechanisms of action, including agents that are newly available or under clinical investigation. In view of this expansion of therapeutic options, it is crucial for clinicians to remain current regarding all potential treatment strategies to ensure optimal patient outcomes.

TARGET AUDIENCE

This program is intended for IBD specialists, gastroenterologists, gastroenterologists in training, surgeons, subspecialists including dieticians and psychologists, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, nurses, and other healthcare team members involved in or interested in the care of patients with IBD.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

Upon completion of this educational activity, participants should be able to:

  • Apply safety and efficacy data from clinical trials of new and emerging agents to achieve an individualized, patient-centered approach to IBD management
  • Analyze potential approaches for positioning new and emerging therapies for UC
  • Evaluate complex clinical situations in which patients with IBD may benefit from management strategies, including novel therapies
