Infliximab durability did not differ between patients on IFX monotherapy dosed based on p-TDM and patients receiving combination therapy. In the absence of concomitant immunosuppression, proactive TDM may improve IFX durability by maintaining higher IFX concentrations entering into maintenance. Further studies are needed to confirm our findings.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
