Core Tip Despite evidence of superiority of risankizumab over ustekinumab when managing Crohn’s disease, it is unknown if switching from ustekinumab to risankizumab is effective. This retrospective study evaluated outcomes in 51 adults who switched from ustekinumab to risankizumab. Significant reductions in Harvey-Bradshaw Index scores were observed at all timepoints, with remission rates rising from 37.1% to 94.4% over 9 months. Albumin, C-reactive protein and calprotectin also improved. Patients with secondary loss of response to ustekinumab responded better than primary non-responders. No serious adverse events occurred. These findings support risankizumab as a safe, effective option after ustekinumab failure in refractory Crohn’s.
