Geldof Expert Consensus Classification of Perianal Fistulizing Crohn’s Disease: A Real-World Application in a Serial Fistula MRI Cohort
Abstract Background and Aims Perianal fistulizing Crohn’s disease (CD-PAF) is an aggressive phenotype of Crohn’s disease (CD) defined by frequent relapses and disabling symptoms. A novel consensus classification system was recently outlined by Geldof et al. that seeks to unify disease severity with patient-centered goals but has not yet been validated. We aimed to apply this to a real-world cohort and identify factors that predict transition between classes over time.Methods We identified all patients with CD-PAF and at least one baseline and one follow-up pelvic (pMRI). Geldof Classification, disease characteristics, and imaging indices were collected retrospectively at time periods corresponding with respective MRIs.Results We identified 100 patients with CD-PAF of which 96 were assigned Geldof Classes 1 – 2c at baseline. Most patients (78.1%) started in Class 2b, but changes in classification were observed in 52.1% of all patients. Male sex (72.0%, 46.6%, 40.0%, p = 0.03) and prior perianal surgery (52.0% vs 44.6% vs 40.0%, p = 0.02) were more frequently observed in those with improved. Baseline pMRI indices were not associated with changes in classification, however, greater improvements in mVAI, MODIFI-CD, and PEMPAC were seen among those who improved. Linear mixed effect modeling identified only male sex (−0.31, 95% CI −0.60 to −0.02) with improvement in class.Conclusion Geldof classification highlights the dynamic nature of CD-PAF over time, however, our ability to predict transitions between classes remains limited and requires prospective assessment. Improvement in MRI index scores over time was associated with a transition to lower Geldof classification..
