What is Celiac Disease? • It is a inflammatory state of the small intestine that occurs in genetically predisposed individuals and resolves with exclusion of Celiac dietary gluten. Disease 112

Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity “Celiac Lite” Condition of morphological, immunological, or functional disorder that responds to gluten exclusion in the absence of celiac disease. Gluten sensitive diarrhea Immunopathological changes in the SB mucosa ↑ Intraepithelial lymphocytes (IEL) ↑ IgA deposits intestinal villi ↑ Secreted Ab against gliadin HLA predicted Adapted from Verdu EF, et al. AJG, 2009. 117

Gluten-Free Diet • The gluten-free diet (GFD) is the only effective therapy available for celiac disease. The benefits of a GFD are: • Improve symptoms • Normalize antibodies • Induce mucosal recovery* • Improve quality-of-life • Reduce the risk of complications • Decrease mortality* Rostom A, et al. Gastroenterology 2006 119
Celiac Lesion is Reversible • Genetic Predisposition • Inflammation • Permanent intolerance to • Villi destruction gluten • Crypt hyperplasia Gluten Gluten exclusion Normal histology Total villous atrophy (Marsh 0) (Marsh 3) 120
Challenges to Adherence • Social occasions • Isolation • Being different ( teenagers) • Family support • Community support • Depression/anxiety “I can resist anything except temptation” Oscar Wilde 121

Views of Celiac Disease Inexorably Linked to GFD for Patients – Which Make Them Feel like ‘Outsiders’ Isoloation Need to explain diet Can’t join in socially Patients thoughts & feelings regarding celiac disease appeared closely linked to the GFD Not feeling yourself On consumption of gluten Global Qualitative Market Research Alba Therapeutics and Double Helix 123 Homework 1: What having celiac disease means to you?
Women Report a Greater Impact on Quality Of Life than Men IMPACT OF SYMPTOMS OF CELIAC DISEASE ON QUALITY OF LIFE PRIOR TO DIAGNOSIS - Patient Survey: Men vs. Women - Females Males 0% 100% Note: While majority experience significant symptoms, over a third characterize as minimal or moderate PT: Q3a. We are interested in understanding how your Celiac symptoms affected the quality of your life prior to being diagnosed. 124
Dangers of Non-Compliance • Increased mortality Holmes et al. 1989 Corrao et al. • Osteoporosis Cellier • Lymphoma Holmes et al. • Other cancers Green, 2006 • Psychological effects hallert • Failure to heal RubioTapia, 2010 125
Healing • Up to 95% of children with CD may have complete mucosal recovery within 2 years after starting a gluten-free diet1 • Mucosal recovery in adults with CD is less certain2 1 Wahab P, et al. Am J Clin Pathol 2002 2 Rostom A, et al. Gastroenterology 2006 126

Persistent Atrophy may be Clinically Relevant • Associated with complications such as osteoporosis, autoimmune diseases, lymphoma1,4 • Persistent atrophy and symptoms despite GFD are major criteria for refractory CD, a rare condition associated with high mortality2 • Even without symptoms: higher risk of osteoporosis, development of refractory sprue, and lymphoma3 1 Rostom A, et al. Gastroenterology 2006 2 Rubio-Tapia A, et al. Gut 2010 3 Kaukinen K, et al. Aliment Pharmacol Ther 2007 128 4Lebowhol et al. Ann Int Med, 2013
Clinical Response? • Clinical response: 82% • However, 62% patients with clinical response were found to have persistent damage at their follow-up biopsy! • No association between clinical response and mucosal recovery (p=.70) 129
Non Responsive Celiac Disease Primary: no initial response to gluten free diet Secondary: relapse following initial response 17% of celiacs at a support group had diarrhea1 18.7% of a referral center population2 9.9% of primary patients 35% of referral patients True refractory celiac disease is rare 1Fine et al.

Conclusions Celiac disease is Common The GFD stinks: – Hard to follow – Less than optimal adherence Many don’t heal Many have symptoms Precedence of trials in celiac disease Track record with FDA and EMEA Clinical trials are feasible Outcome measures: objective and subjective ( PRO) 134 134
