Abstract: Disclosed herein anti-TNF therapy companion diagnostics (e.g., a predictive biomarker panel) for management of Crohn's Disease (CD). The disclosed companion diagnostics may be used to identify an appropriate treatment for a patient, and includes, for example, in vitro diagnostic tests or devices that provide information for the use of an anti-TNF therapy. The disclosed methods may be used, in certain aspects, for the identification of patients likely to respond, or as not likely to respond to an anti-TNF agent. The use of the disclosed methods may allow for dose determination, discontinuation, or the administration of combinations of therapeutic agents.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are methods for the treatment of an individual having an inflammatory bowel disease (“IBD”). The disclosed methods may include the detection of Oncostatin M (OSM) in a biological sample obtained from an individual having an IBD. The detection of OSM may be used to characterize the individual as a tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitor (TNFi) responder or a TNFi non-responder for selection of appropriate treatment.
