Effect of Suboptimal Disease Control on Patient Quality of Life: Real-World Data from the Observational IBD-PODCAST Canada Trial.
Digestive Diseases and Sciences 2024 March 17
BACKGROUND: The real-world application of STRIDE-II treatment targets to identify whether disease control is optimal in Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) is not well known.
AIMS: This study aimed to estimate proportions of patients with suboptimally controlled CD and UC in real-world Canadian healthcare settings and the impact on quality of life (QoL).
METHODS: The noninterventional, multicenter, observational IBD-PODCAST Canada study comprised a single study visit involving routine assessments, patient- and clinician-completed questionnaires, and a retrospective chart review. Primary outcomes were proportions of patients with STRIDE-II-based red flags indicative of suboptimal disease control and mean ± standard deviation Short Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (SIBDQ) scores. Secondary outcomes included proportions of patients and clinicians subjectively reporting suboptimal control.
RESULTS: Among 163 enrolled patients from 10 sites, 45/87 patients with CD (51.7%; 95% CI: 40.8%, 62.6%) and 33/76 patients with UC (43.3%; 95% CI: 32.1%, 55.3%) had suboptimal disease control based on STRIDE-II criteria. Suboptimal control was subjectively reported at lower proportions (patients: CD, 15.0%; UC, 18.6%; clinicians: CD, 19.5%; UC, 25.0%). Numerically lower SIBDQ scores were observed with suboptimal control (CD, 43.0 ± 10.8; UC, 42.5 ± 12.0) than with optimal control (CD, 58.2 ± 7.2; UC, 57.8 ± 6.6).
CONCLUSIONS: Approximately 50% (CD) and 40% (UC) of patients from real-world Canadian practices had suboptimal disease control based on STRIDE-II criteria. Suboptimal control was underestimated by patients and clinicians and accompanied by reduced QoL, suggesting further efforts to implement STRIDE-II treat-to-target strategies are needed.
