The purpose of this study is to characterize the treatment patterns associated with biologics agents use or non-biological therapy in participants with moderate to severe Ulcerative Colitis (UC) and Crohn's Disease (CD).
This is a non-interventional, retrospective and prospective study of participants with IBD. This study will collect data to provide accurate and comprehensive information related to treatment patterns associated with biologics use or non-biological therapy in participants with moderate to severe UC and CD in routine clinical practice. The study will have retrospective data collection from past records of participants within the last 2 years before participant's enrollment. The prospective part of the study will include one year of observation and data collection after the participant's enrollment in the study. The study will enroll approximately 2000 participants. Participants will be enrolled in one of the two groups: * UC Participants * CD Participants This multi-center trial will be conducted in Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan. The overall period of observation in this study will be approximately 12 months. Participants will make 2 visits within their routine practice to the clinic after the enrollment into the study including a final visit at Month 12.

Time frame: From 2 years before enrollment up to Month 12 after enrollment (up to 3 years)
Number of Participants Stratified by Location of Disease
Time frame: Within 1 year prior to Baseline (Visit 1)
Number of Participants Stratified by Disease Severity
Disease Severity was defined using Harvey-Bradshaw Index (HBI) and mayo index. HBI is validated clinical index for evaluation of CD disease severity, including the 5 categories: general well-being, abdominal pain, number of liquid stools, abdominal mass and complications. The score ranges from 0 to 25, where score less than (\<) 5 was remission, score 5-7 was mild activity, score 8-16 was moderate, and score \>16 was severe. Mayo index was used for evaluation of UC disease severity. Mayo index is an instrument consisting of 4 categories of: stool frequency, rectal bleeding, endoscopic findings, and physician's global assessment, each sub score graded from 0 to 3. The score ranges from 0 to 12, where score \<2 was remission, score 3-5 was mild, score 6-10 was moderate, and score \>10 was severe.

Time frame: At Visit 1 (Baseline), Visit 2 (6 months), Visit 3 (12 months) of prospective period
Number of Participants Based on Usage of Methods for Documentation of Disease Activity in Routine Practice
Disease activity assessment was performed using following methods- biomarkers, endoscopy, biopsy, X-ray, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasound examination. Number of participants whose disease activity was evaluated using the respective methods were reported.
Time frame: From Baseline Visit (Day 1) up to 12 months
Number of Assessments Using Different Methods in Participants With UC and CD Disease Activity
Disease activity assessment was performed using following methods- biomarkers, endoscopy, biopsy, X-ray, MRI and ultrasound examination. Biomarkers was based on evaluation of C-reactive protein (CRP) and/or fecal calprotectin levels. Endoscopy included colonoscopy/rectoromanoscopy/sigmoidoscopy and/or video capsule endoscopy and/or esophagogastroduodenoscopy (in the presence or suspicion of the presence of lesions of the upper gastrointestinal tract in Crohn's disease), X-ray was used for examination of the intestine to exclude stricturing and other lesions, MRI was used for examination of the intestine to exclude stricturing and other lesions using MRI and ultrasound for examination of the intestine to exclude stricturing and other lesions. Number of assessments using different methods in participants with UC and CD disease activity was summarized for specified methods and reported in terms of mean and standard deviation.
Time frame: From Baseline Visit (Day 1) up to 12 months
UC Participants: Percentage of Participants Who Achieved Combined Clinical and Endoscopic Remission Based on Mayo Index
The full Mayo index is an instrument to measure disease activity of UC. It consists of 4 parameters: stool frequency, rectal bleeding, endoscopic evaluation, and Physician's global assessment. Each parameter of the score ranged from 0 (normal or inactive disease) to 3 (severe activity). The score ranged from 0 to 12, where score \<2 was remission, score 3-5 was mild activity, score 6-10 was moderate activity, and score \>10 was severe activity. Higher scores indicating higher disease activity.
Time frame: At Visit 1 (Baseline), Visit 2 (6 months), Visit 3 (12 months) of prospective period
CD Participants: Percentage of Participants Who Achieved Clinical Remission Based on HBI
HBI was used for evaluation of CD remission. It is a validated clinical index for CD, including the 5 categories of: general well-being, abdominal pain, number of liquid stools, abdominal mass and complications. The score ranges from 0 to 25, where score \<5 was remission, score 5-7 was mild activity, score 8-16 was moderate activity, and score \>16 was severe activity. Higher scores indicating higher disease activity.
Time frame: At Visit 1 (Baseline), Visit 2 (6 months), Visit 3 (12 months) of prospective period
Number of Participants With at Least One Episode of Failure of Biological or Non-biological Therapy
Time frame: From 2 years before enrollment up to Month 12 after enrollment (up to 3 years)
Number of Participants Who Needed Treatment Adjustments Based on Disease Activity Assessment
Time frame: From 2 years before enrollment up to Month 12 after enrollment (up to 3 years)
Percentage of Participants Stratified by Achieving the Treatment Goals
Treat to target (T2T) approach was used for assessment of treatment goals. A "Treat to target" approach for UC included clinical remission (defined as resolution of rectal bleeding and diarrhea/altered bowel habit) and endoscopic remission (defined as Mayo endoscopic subscore of 0-1). Biomarker remission (normal C-reactive protein \[CRP\] and calprotectin) was considered as an adjunctive target. Histological remission was considered as an adjunctive goal. Clinical remission for CD was defined as resolution of abdominal pain and diarrhea/altered bowel habit. Endoscopic remission for CD was defined as resolution of ulceration at ileocolonoscopy or resolution of findings of inflammation on cross-sectional imaging in participants who cannot be adequately assessed with ileocolonoscopy. Biomarker remission (normal CRP and faecal calprotectin) was considered as an adjunctive target.
Time frame: From 2 years before enrollment up to Month 12 after enrollment (up to 3 years)
Percentage of Participants Based on Challenges of Implementing a T2T Strategy in UC and CD Participants in Real Clinical Practice
"Other" challenges included absence or inaccessibility of MRI (technical problems), participants financial difficulties, disability and bureaucratic problems, unavailability of biotherapy, limited quotas, referral of participants to other centers, absence of biotherapy treatment quotas, difficulty in performing computed tomography (CT).
Time frame: From 2 years before enrollment up to Month 12 after enrollment (up to 3 years)
Percentage of Participants Based on Hospitalizations Due to Complications, IBD Related Surgeries, and Disability Determination in Participants With Moderate to Severe UC and CD
Time frame: From 2 years before enrollment up to Month 12 after enrollment (up to 3 years)

Indications for surgical treatment included aggravation, intestinal bleeding, colon perforation, internal fistulas, abdominal cavity infiltrate, Interintestinal or Intraabdominal abscess, strictures in the gastrointestinal tract, anal fissures, and other. Types of surgeries includes both emergency and planned.
Time frame: From 2 years before enrollment up to Month 12 after enrollment (up to 3 years)
