A191 REAL WORLD USE OF ADALIMUMAB BIOSIMILAR AMGEVITA® (ABP-501) IN PATIENTS WITH INFLAMMATORY BOWEL DISEASE IN CANADA
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Background ABP-501 (AMGEVITA®), biosimilar to adalimumab reference product (RP), was approved by Health Canada in 2021 for use in different immune diseases, including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), comprising Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). Aims To assess the real-world use, effectiveness and satisfaction of ABP-501 in adalimumab naïve and switch patients with IBD across Canada. Methods Data were drawn from the Adelphi IBD Disease Specific ProgrammeTM, a cross-sectional survey with retrospective data collection from physicians conducted in Canada between July 2023 and June 2024. Gastroenterologists (GIs) provided data on their patients with IBD including demographics, clinical characteristics, and treatment satisfaction. Analyses were descriptive. Results Overall, 10 GIs reported data on 101 patients (60 CD and 41 UC): 80 initiated ABP-501 as first adalimumab therapy (initiators) and 21 switched directly to ABP-501 from RP (switchers) (Table 1). Mean [standard deviation; SD] time receiving ABP-501 at consultation was 13.2 [11.6] and 21.6 [9.9] months for initiators and switchers, respectively. Switchers received RP for 48 [27.1] months before switching to ABP-501. Most patients were receiving adalimumab as their first advanced therapy (70% initiators, 90% switchers). The main reasons for switching from RP to ABP-501 were cost effectiveness for the healthcare system (57%) and insurance coverage (43%). At consultation, most initiators and switchers had mild disease (92%, 95%, respectively), were in clinical (91%; 95%, respectively) and endoscopic (66%; 81% respectively) remission (Figure 1) and had an improving/stable disease (97%; 100%, respectively). Treatment targets for initiators and switchers included maintaining clinical remission (n=54; n=18, achieved by 100%, respectively) and maintaining endoscopic remission (n=37; n=17, achieved by 86% and 100%, respectively). GIs were satisfied with ABP-501 treatment (99% initiators, 100% switchers). Conclusions Most patients with IBD treated with ABP-501 as initiating or continuing adalimumab therapy in a real-world setting had mild disease, were in remission and had an improving/stable disease. Patients who switched from RP to ABP-501 switched mainly for economic reasons. GIs reported high levels of satisfaction. Table 1.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
