Ninety percent more biologic-naïve patients and three times more biologic-refractory patients with ulcerative colitis achieved endoscopic remission with TREMFYA

VIENNA, Austria, Oct. 10, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Johnson & Johnson (NYSE:JNJ) today announced TREMFYA (guselkumab) data in both Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) showing high rates of endoscopic remission in both biologic-naïve and biologic-refractory patients (including UC patients refractory to JAK inhibitors), indicating a normal appearance of intestinal mucosa.1,2 These subgroup analyses are from pooled data from the Phase 3 GALAXI 2 & 3 studies of TREMFYA in adults with moderately to severely active CD and the Phase 3 QUASAR maintenance study of TREMFYA in adults with moderately to severely active UC. These findings are among 19 Johnson & Johnson abstracts being presented at the United European Gastroenterology (UEG) Week 2024.
