IBD Management: Combining Cross-Specialty Expertise with Innovative Therapies 

This interactive, case‑based symposium brings together specialists in gastroenterology, rheumatology, and dermatology for a dynamic multidisciplinary discussion. The session will identify key opportunities for cross‑specialty collaboration and highlight practical approaches for delivering coordinated, patient‑centered care for individuals with immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs). 

Learning Objectives 

Participants will be able to:

  1. Evaluate the impact of extraintestinal manifestations (EIMs) and co‑occurring IMIDs on treatment selection and multidisciplinary management in IBD. 
  2. Identify and compare attributes of biologic and small‑molecule therapies, including mechanism of action, efficacy, safety, convenience, and quality‑of‑life considerations. 
  3. Apply shared decision‑making strategies to real‑world IBD cases, incorporating patient preferences, lifestyle factors, and cross‑specialty insights.
