Core Tip Real-world data guiding dose re-escalation of upadacitinib in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are limited. In this single-center cohort, off-label intensification in patients with secondary loss of response was associated with significant symptomatic improvement and reduced corticosteroid exposure, with favorable trends in objective measures. Most patients remained on the escalated dose at follow-up. No new laboratory safety signals were observed. These findings suggest dose intensification may represent a pragmatic management strategy in selected patients with IBD.
