Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), including ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, involve an inappropriate immune reaction in the digestive tract, causing a variety of disabling symptoms. The advent of monoclonal antibodies (anti-tumor necrosis factor, anti-integrin, anti-interleukin −23) has revolutionized IBD management. Nevertheless, these agents, with potential for immunogenicity, are associated with high rates of response loss and disease relapse over time. They are also associated with high production costs.Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), a membrane-derived lysophospholipid signaling molecule, is implicated in a vast array of physiological and pathophysiological processes, primarily via extracellular activation of S1P1-S1P5 receptors. S1P1, S1P4 and S1P5 are involved in regulation of the immune system, while S1P2 and S1P3 may be associated with cardiovascular, pulmonary, and theoretical cancer-related risks. Targeting S1P receptors for inflammatory conditions has been successful in clinical trials leading to approval of the non-selective S1P modulator, fingolimod, for relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis. However, the association of this non-selective S1P modulator with serious adverse events provides the rationale for developing more selective S1P receptor modulators. Until recently, three S1P modulators with differing selectivity for S1P receptors were in clinical development for IBD: ozanimod (RPC1063), etrasimod (APD334) and amiselimod (MT-1303). The development of amiselimod has been stopped as Biogen are currently focusing on other drugs in its portfolio. Following encouraging results from the Phase 2 TOUCHSTONE trial, a Phase 3 trial of the S1P modulator ozanimod in patients with moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis is ongoing. Etrasimod is also being tested in a phase 2 trial in ulcerative colitis. These pipeline medications can be administered orally and may avoid the formation of anti-drug antibodies that can lead to treatment failure with injectable biologic therapies for IBD. Data from ongoing clinical trials will establish the relationship between the selectivity of S1P modulators and their safety and efficacy in IBD, as well as their potential place in the clinical armamentarium for IBD.
