Analysis of the use of monoclonal antibodies in the treatment of Crohn's disease.
Review in Antibody therapeutics, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease with increasing global prevalence, significantly impacting patients' quality of life and healthcare costs. The introduction of monoclonal antibodies has revolutionized CD management, offering targeted therapy against specific inflammatory pathways. This review systematically analyzes the current state of monoclonal antibody therapy, including anti-TNF-α agents (infliximab, adalimumab, certolizumab pegol), anti-integrin antibodies (vedolizumab), and anti-cytokine therapies (ustekinumab, risankizumab). Despite remarkable therapeutic advances, significant limitations persist, including primary non-response (20%-40%), secondary loss of response (13%-20% annually), immunogenicity, safety concerns, and substantial economic burden. We propose evidence-based strategies to address these challenges, including therapeutic drug monitoring, combination therapy, and personalized medicine approaches. Furthermore, we identify promising novel therapeutic targets such as IL-36, IL-17C, SMAD7, TL1A, complement components, and microbiome-related factors. Targeting two or more specific targets simultaneously appears to be a promising direction of research for the development of bi- and polyspecific monoclonal antibodies capable of interfering with multiple pathological pathways in CD. The integration of advanced antibody engineering, personalized medicine, and innovative delivery systems represents the future direction for overcoming current limitations. Achieving sustained remission for all patients through safe, effective, and accessible therapeutic interventions remains the ultimate goal in CD management.
