Q1. Could you please provide the numbers of patients treated in the last 3 months by the Gastroenterology department for any medical condition, and if possible, for Ulcerative Colitis, with the following biologic drugs: Adalimumab – Humira, Adalimumab Biosimilar, Filgotinib, Golimumab, Infliximab – Remicade, Infliximab Biosimilar, Ozanimod, Tofacitinib, Ustekinumab, Vedolizumab
Please see below data held for Gastroenterology patients. The Trust can provide the number of patients, but unable to provide the indication that the drug was prescribed for as this is not recorded against pharmacy data. Therefore we are unable to advise how many patients were issued drugs for ulcerative colitis. If the drug is not listed, it is because it has not been issued.
