Much progress has been made in defining the genetic abnormalities and associated abnormal pathophysiology underlying the spontaneous and chronic inflammation that characterizes inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Medications that suppress or modify immune activity form the core of effective treatment for IBD. Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptor modulators, a small-molecule therapeutic option, provide a target-specific approach with a favorable safety profile. Multiple S1P receptor modulators are in development, and ozanimod became the first agent in this class to...
