摘要
Mucosal healing is an indication to the disease activity level in patients affected by inflammatory bowel diseases, and it is thus far mainly monitored by endoscopy. Instead or in addition to endoscopy, the invention provides blood test using biomarkers and an index that allows a practitioner to assess the status of mucosal healing, to change or adapt dosage of treatment and to predict which patient will become responder versus non-responder to treatment as assessed by endoscopy. While none of neutrophils cell count, c-reactive protein (CRP), Human type of Cathelicidin (LL-37), or Chitinase 3-like 1 (CHI3L1) alone is able to provide an assessment means of mucosal healing, the invention provides a novel combination of the levels of these biomarkers to assess the level of mucosal healing in relation to endoscopic healing.
