We reached the end of 2016 with 60 sites actively participating in the IBD Registry, and over 21,000 patient records submitted. 80 sites in total have a ‘live’ system for data capture, and 21 additional sites are in the process of setting up so we expect patient numbers to increase steadily.

Looking ahead to 2017, we’re aiming to present the first IBD Registry data on Wednesday 21 June 16:30 – 18:00 at the BSG annual meeting, with a publication reporting on the majority of biologics patients in England at the end of the year. All sites contributing patient records will be acknowledged in presentations of Registry data. Details will be available in the new year.
FUNDING AVAILABLE FOR LOCAL DATA ENTRY SUPPORT
The Registry has set up an industry working group with a number of pharma companies; as well as working to secure significant funding for long term maintenance of the registry, members of the industry group have generously contributed to a fund specifically to help sites with data entry. Many thanks to our colleagues at AbbVie, Allergan, Dr Falk, Janssen, Napp, Pfizer, Takeda, Tillotts and Vifor for their contributions to this fund. For more information please contact [email protected] by 20th January.
