Medical Treatment of Colitis in Patients With Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome
キーワード
概要
説明
The primary purpose of this study is to detect patterns of immune abnormalities in the colitis associated with Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome (HPS). Additionally we aim to document the clinical response to and tolerance of conventional inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) therapy for HPS patients with active colitis associated with Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome (HPS). HPS is a rare autosomal recessive disorder causing dysfunctional lysosome-related organelle formation and trafficking resulting in oculocutaneous albinism and a bleeding diathesis secondary to platelet dysfunction. Associated conditions include pulmonary fibrosis, IBD, and systemic ceroid deposition. The associated IBD has been reported to occur at a higher frequency in the HPS-1 and HPS-4 subtypes compared to the prevalence of IBD in non-HPS populations. HPS IBD has clinical features of both ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease, but histologically resembles Crohn's disease in that granulomas are commonly seen in the mucosa of the intestine. The pathogenesis of HPS IBD is not fully understood and little data beyond descriptions of the clinical and histologic manifestations have been published. Furthermore reports on treatment of the colitis in HPS patients are largely anecdotal, and our own experience suggests that many patients may be under-treated.
HPS patients with active colitis will be enrolled into this prospective treatment study. Endpoints for the immunopathogenesis studies will include baseline measurements of and changes in immune cell populations, cytokine, and chemokine expression. In the blood and gut mucosa. Endpoints for the study of response to treatment will include changes in clinical, endoscopic, and histologic scores as well as the rate and severity of adverse events. Descriptive summary statistical analysis (n, mean, median, standard deviation, minimum and maximum range) and simple correlations of clinical response variables with immune parameters will be done.

| Other: 1/Drug #1 Oral mesalamine will be used as initial therapy in patients who are not taking any medication or have not received any prior treatment for their IBD. Dosing will begin at 2.4 g PO QD and will be increased to 4.8 g QD within 2 weeks. Topical mesalamine (enema 4 g PR HS/BID or suppository 1 g PR HS/BID) may be added for patients with inflammation that is limited to the rectum (proctitis) or who have prominent complaints of urgency, incomplete evacuation or rectal bleeding. | Drug: 1/Drug #1 5-Aminosalicylic Acid Derivative used to treat mild to moderate Ulcerative Colitis |
| Other: 1/Drug#2 Add oral corticosteroids (prednisone) to mesalamine. The standard induction dose will be 40 mg/day. After 1 week of therapy, if the total SCCAI score has decreased by greater than or equal to 2 points the patient will continue on another week of therapy. If the SCCAI has not decreased by greater than or equal to 2 points (indicative of a reduction in symptoms) at one week, then the dose will be increased to 60 mg/day. Patients on either dosage will have another SCCAI assessment done a week later (2 weeks after beginning corticosteroids), and if they are found to be in remission (SCCAI less than or equal to 2), a steroid-tapering schedule will be initiated. | Drug: 1/Drug#2 Systemic Corticosteroid used to treat inflammatory conditions. |
| Other: 1/Drug#3 Infliximab and 6-MP will be added to patients with a SCCAI greater than 2 at week 8. The first infusion of infliximab (5 mg/kg) will be given during that week. In addition, 6-MP will be initiated at doses of 1.0-1.5 mg/kg PO QD to reduce the incidence of infliximab antibody formation and facilitate steroid tapering (the target dose of 6-MP will be decreased accordingly if patients are found to have low TMPT levels/activity by genotypic or phenotypic testing). Also, steroids will also be rapidly tapered off at this time. | Drug: 1/Drug#3 Antineoplastic Agent, Antimetabolite, Immunosuppressant Agent used traditionally to treat Acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Unlabeled use as steroid-sparing agent for corticosteroid-dependent Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC); maintenance of remission in CD; fistulizing Crohn's disease. |
| Other: 1/Drug#4 Infliximab and 6-MP will be added to patients with a SCCAI greater than 2 at week 8. The first infusion of infliximab (5 mg/kg) will be given during that week. In addition, 6-MP will be initiated at doses of 1.0-1.5 mg/kg PO QD to reduce the incidence of infliximab antibody formation and facilitate steroid tapering (the target dose of 6-MP will be decreased accordingly if patients are found to have low TMPT levels/activity by genotypic or phenotypic testing). Also, steroids will also be rapidly tapered off at this time. | Drug: 1/Drug#4 Antirheumatic, Disease Modifying Gastrointestinal Agent, Miscellaneous, Monoclonal Antibody, Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) Blocking Agent used to treat gastrointestinal disorders. |
| Other: 1/Drug#5 Subjects with a SCCAI greater than 2 after 3 doses of infliximab will continue 6-MP, discontinue infliximab infusions and start adalimumab injections approximately 2 weeks after the 3rd dose of infliximab. Induction dosing will consist of a 160 Micro/g subcutaneous injection, followed by 80 Micro/g 2 weeks after. | Drug: 1/Drug#5 Antirheumatic, Monoclonal Antibody, Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) Blocking Agent used to treat Rheumatoid arthritis and Crohn's disease. |
| Other: 1/Drug#6 Patients who have a SCCAI greater than 2 after 2 doses of adalimumab will continue 6-MP, discontinue adalimumab, and start therapy with tacrolimus 0.01 mg/kg PO BID approximately 2 weeks after the second dose of adalimumab. | Drug: 1/Drug#6 Immunosuppressant Agent used to treat Liver, Heart, Kidney transplant, prevent host vs graft disease, severe atopic dermatitis. |
