Study Summary

Background: The gastrointestinal (GI) tract is commonly affected by acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) and chronic GVHD (cGVHD) in patients who have undergone blood or marrow stem cell transplantation (BMT). Initially, patients are treated with systemic corticosteroids, which produce complete response rates in 35 percent. Although short courses of steroids are preferred to minimize adverse effects, many patients require systemic treatment chronically since GI GVHD can negatively impact quality of life and nutrition status. One option to minimize systemic steroid exposure is by nonabsorbable corticosteroids that act locally on the GI tract. Budesonide (Entocort EC, AstraZeneca, Wilmington, DE) is an FDA-approved oral topical corticosteroid for the treatment of mild to moderate active Crohn s disease involving the ileum and/or the ascending colon, and for maintenance of clinical remission of mild to moderate Crohn s disease involving the ileum and/or the ascending colon for up to 3 months. It has a high ratio of topical-to-systemic activity with minimally active metabolites, and undergoes extensive first-pass metabolism. Since both intestinal GVHD and Crohn s disease seem to share a similar pathogenic background, budesonide has been used in the BMT setting for GI GVHD, usually in combination with systemic corticosteroids (e.g. methylprednisolone) to improve clinical response and allow for more rapid tapering of systemic corticosteroid doses. First-pass metabolism is mediated mostly by the cytochrome P450 (CYP450) enzyme system. The liver is the major site of CYP450-mediated metabolism but the enterocytes of the intestinal epithelium are also an important site for drug metabolism. Budesonide undergoes significant metabolism by CYP enzymes with substantial first-pass metabolism. The potential for greater systemic availability of orally administered budesonide exists when it is given concurrently with triazole antifungals, which are commonly prescribed for prophy
