Résumé
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) - consisting of ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease - is a complex, heterogeneous, immune-mediated inflammatory condition with a multifactorial aetiopathogenesis. Despite therapeutic advances in this arena, a ceiling effect has been reached with both single-agent monoclonal antibodies and advanced small molecules. Therefore, there is a need to identify novel targets, and the development of companion biomarkers to select responders is vital. In this Perspective, we examine how advances in machine learning and tissue engineering could be used at the preclinical stage where attrition rates are high. For novel agents reaching clinical trials, we explore factors decelerating progression, particularly the decline in IBD trial recruitment, and assess how innovative approaches such as reconfiguring trial designs, harmonizing end points and incorporating digital technologies into clinical trials can address this. Harnessing opportunities at each stage of the drug development process may allow for incremental gains towards more effective therapies.
