Аннотация
Article describes a clinical observation of a 49-year-old female patient with 25-year history of severe steroid-dependent ulcerative colitis (UC). The patient had ineffective/intolerant treatment with 5-aminosalicylic acid, glucocorticosteroids, thiopurines, and budesonide MMX. Remission was achieved with etrolizumab (4.5 years), but a relapse occurred after its discontinuation. During an exacerbation of UC (April 2023, Mayo 3), ustekinumab was prescribed: induction – 6 mg per kilogram intravenously, maintenance therapy – 90 mg subcutaneously every 12 weeks. As a result, it was possible to achieve stable clinical remission lasting 2 years. Endoscopy (April 2025) showed minimal UC activity (Mayo 1), histological examination – disease activity of 2 points according to Riley with the signs of healing. Thus, ustekinumab effectively induced and maintained remission in a female patient with UC refractory to the therapy by genetically engineered biological medicinal product of the first line.
