Résumé

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that negatively impacts patients' quality of life. In the last decades, the therapeutic options available for the management of patients with moderate to severe UC have increased significantly, including not only biological drugs but also small molecules. However, there is a persistent need to develop new drugs that act on new targets while minimizing the risk of adverse events. Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a membrane-derived lysophospholipid. The S1P gradient between tissues and the circulatory system has a key role in regulating the trafficking of immune cells as autoreactive B and T lymphocytes. S1P receptor modulators could be a safe and efficacious alternative mechanism for reducing inflammation in immune-mediated disorders, including UC, by reducing lymphocyte egress from the lymph nodes to the bloodstream. Several S1P receptor modulators have been developed and tested in UC. Ozanimod is already approved by Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and European Medical Agency (EMA), while etrasimod and VTX002 are still under approval. Oral administration route, rapidity and reliable safety profile are the main advantages of this class of drugs. The aim of this review is to summarize the available evidence for the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of ozanimod, etrasimod, and VTX002 in UC.
