I will give you my opinion on what to do with IMMs/antiTNFs when an AE occurs

we need to individualize this decision based on severity of IBD and AEy

I look forward to further discussion and your opinion.

Important questions in pts who develops cancer on IBD meds:

1. Did the medicine cause the cancer?

2. What is the risk of:

- continuing the med in terms of worsening cancer orworsening cancer or

- discontinuing the med in terms of worsening IBD?

Clinical Questions

• Is skin cancer risk increased by therapy?therapy?– Thiopurines – yes

– Methotrexate – don’t know, probably not

– Biologics – no NMSC, maybe melanoma

• If so, does the risk of continuing therapy outweigh the benefits?– In this case – consider stopping thiopurine Uncertain if risk will decline

– Annual skin exam and regular use of sunscreen and hats

Clinical Questions

• Does immunosuppressant therapy i th i k f l h ?increase the risk of lymphoma?– Thiopurines – yes, but risk may revert after

discontinuation

– antiTNFs – Probably not

– Combination – Yes and probably more than thmonotherapy
