Exciting news for #IBD patients with both the #CD and #UC trials! 👏🏼 Thank you @ibddocmaria and @bruce_sands1 for your commitment to these trials!
I was proud to present Phase 2b results from the DUET-UC trial at @DDWMeeting 2026, showing that a novel dual-antibody therapy targeting IL-23 & TNF produced stronger outcomes than either drug alone in patients with treatment-resistant #UlcerativeColitis. touchimmunology.com/insight/…

As we approach #WorldIBDDay we’re reminded #IBD has no borders. Living w/ #Crohns or #UC can be isolating, but support connects us. Our #Spanish virtual IBD #supportgroup is a space to share & feel understood. Next group is on Monday, 5/18 for Spanish speaking IBD patients! 🔗👇🏼

Thank you @SenatorChoi for taking the time to listen to my Crohn’s disease journey & being open to understanding the reasons why SB-964 is so important! Dose optimization should NOT require prior authorizations 😠 #IBDAdvocacy #SB964 #DoseOptimization #IBD

Incredible session by @RobertHirten re: real-time monitoring in #IBD & how to integrate into patient care, as well as understanding in which populations it should be use. Goal is to demonstrate impact on outcomes, quality of life, fewer flares & lower costs

Thank you @vipuljairath for discussing ways to optimize #clinicaltrial design & how to move forward. So much work to be done to focus on neglected #IBD subtypes & increasing #diversity & access to trials, as well as integrating novel #PROs & #endpoints #DDW2026

My final session of #DDW2026 is a state of the art lecture of 5 expert speakers reviewing novel endpoints for the treatment of #IBD & treatments in development. Novel monitoring strategies & emerging disease areas are being discussed. It is the BEST time to be living with IBD🎉

In the GALAXI 2 & 3 LTE, GUS 200 q4w dose adjustment was evaluated for #CD pts with inadequate response. Maintenance dose adjustment to guselkumab 200 mg q4w may benefit patients with Crohn's disease who experience inadequate response to guselkumab 100 mg q8w 👍🏼 #DDW2026
