Current medications are aimed at reducing the symptoms or suppressing exacerbations. However, patients require life-long medications, and this can lead to drug dependency, loss of response together with adverse side effects. Indeed, drug side effects become additional morbidity factor in many patients on long-term medications. Nonetheless, the efficacy of anti-tumour necrosis factors (TNF)-\u03b1 biologics has validated the role of inflammatory cytokines notably TNF-\u03b1 in the exacerbation of IBD. However, inflammatory cytokines are released by patients&#8217; own cellular elements including myeloid lineage leucocytes, which in patients with IBD are elevated with activation behaviour and prolonged survival. Accordingly, these leucocytes appear logical targets of therapy and can be depleted by adsorptive granulocyte\/monocyte apheresis (GMA) with an Adacolumn. Based on this background, recently GMA has been applied to treat patients with IBD in Japan and in the European Union countries. Efficacy rates have been impressive as well as disappointing. In fact the clinical response to GMA seems to define the patients&#8217; disease course, response to medications, duration of active disease, and severity at entry. The best responders have been first episode cases (up to 100%) followed by steroid na\u00efve and patients with a short duration of active disease prior to GMA. Patients with deep ulcers together with extensive loss of the mucosal tissue and cases with a long duration of IBD refractory to existing medications are not likely to benefit from GMA. It is clinically interesting that patients who respond to GMA have a good long-term disease course by avoiding drugs including corticosteroids in the early stage of their IBD. Additionally, GMA is very much favoured by patients for its good safety profile. GMA in 21st century reminds us of phlebotomy as a major medical practice at the time of Hippocrates. However, in patients with IBD, there is a scope for removing from the body the sources of pro-inflammatory cytokines and achieve disease remission. The bottom line is that by introducing GMA at an early stage following the onset of IBD or before patients develop extensive mucosal damage and become refractory to medications, many patients should respond to GMA and avoid pharmacologics. This should fulfill the desire to treat without drugs.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"post-content max-w-987 mx-auto px-20 lg:px-0\">\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/25110409\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/25110409\/<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"post-content max-w-987 mx-auto px-20 lg:px-0\">\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC4123360\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC4123360\/<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Abbi R Saniabadi\u00a01,\u00a0Tomotaka Tanaka\u00a01,\u00a0Toshihide Ohmori\u00a01,\u00a0Koji Sawada\u00a01,\u00a0Takayuki Yamamoto\u00a01,\u00a0Hiroyuki Hanai\u00a0 World J gastroenterol. 2014 Aug 7;20(29):9699-715 Ulcerative colitis and Crohn&#8217;s disease are the major phenotypes of the idiopathic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which afflicts millions of individuals throughout the world with debilitating symptoms, impairing function and quality of life.
