Study design details

Main study objective

The primary objective of the study is to assess the prevalence of major structural birth defects in infants of women with UC or CD exposed to vedolizumab during pregnancy, compared to women with UC or CD exposed to other biologic agents.

Outcomes

Primary outcome included the major structural defects (either cosmetic or functional significance to the child) identified after infant's birth up to 1 year of age. Secondary outcome included the minor structural defects (neither cosmetic or functional significance to the child) identified through dysmorphology examination after infant's birth up to 1 year of age.

Data analysis plan

Primary analysis between the vedolizumab-exposed group and the other biologic agents-exposed group will use Fisher exact test for univariate comparisons and logistic regression for multivariate analysis with adjustment for confounders.
