About this trial
The purpose of this prospective, multicenter, real-world study is to compare the efficacy differences and influencing factors of different first-line biologics in patients with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis. The question that this study aims to answer is: When treating patients with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis, should IFX or VDZ be prioritized as the first-line choice for biologics?, Which biological agent has better therapeutic effect?. Researchers will observe and follow up with patients with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis treated with different biologics on the front line, evaluate their condition changes, eliminate relevant interfering factors, and draw the final conclusion.
