Statement of Need

Cytokines, such as interleukin (IL)-23, are key drivers of intestinal inflammation in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. While all IL-23–targeted agents neutralize IL-23, differences in antibody structure can improve the ability of these agents to capture this inflammatory cytokine from a main source of production, namely CD64- positive myelocytes. As the treatment landscape of IL-23–targeted therapies continues to expand, it is crucial that gastroenterology clinicians understand the differentiating aspects of current and emerging treatments in order to develop an efficacious, lasting, and individualized treatment plan for each patient.

In this CME Outfitters livestream symposium, expert faculty will review the functions of Fc gamma receptors, CD64 and its connection with IL-23, the molecular attributes of anti–IL-23 therapies, in vivo data on expression of CD64 monocytes, and the most recent clinical trial data differentiating the anti–IL-23 agents. To demonstrate these concepts, animated 3-D models will be included in the educational program and available to attendees.

Learning Objectives

At the conclusion of this activity, learners will be able to better:

  • Assess the role of pro-inflammatory cytokines in driving inflammation in the pathogenesis of IBD
  • Classify the role of the IL-23/Th17 inflammatory axis in IBD pathogenesis
  • Evaluate the clinical implications of anti–IL-23 agents used in the treatment of IBD to bind to CD64 receptors on IL-23–producing cells

Financial Support

This activity is supported by an educational grant from Janssen Biotech, Inc., administered by Janssen Scientific Affairs, LLC.- both are Johnson & Johnson companies.

Target Audience

Gastroenterologists, gastroenterology fellows, physician associates (PAs), nurse practitioners (NPs), and nurses
