Methods of treating IBD in a subject using an anti-SMAD7 therapy, such as a SMAD7 antisense oligonucleotide, to reduce CCL20, IL8, or TNFα levels are disclosed. Methods of treating and managing IBD in a subject using an anti-SMAD7 therapy, such as a SMAD7 antisense oligonucleotide, based on CCL20, IL8, or TNFα levels are also disclosed. Also disclosed are methods of determining whether a subject with IBD is responsive or likely to be responsive to treatment an anti-SMAD7 therapy. Reduction of CCL20, IL8, or TNFα levels may correlated with IBD remission or decreases in CDAI score. |
