Trough Concentration Response in Infliximab and Adalimumab Treated Children With Inflammatory Bowel Disease Following Treatment Adjustment: A Pharmacokinetic Model
Abstract:Objectives:
In patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), data on trough concentration (TC) response to adjustments of anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNFα) are scarce.
Methods:
We included pediatric patients with IBD who were treated with anti-TNFα agents and had sequential monitoring of TC pre- and post-adjustment. Patients with positive anti-drug-antibodies or with concomitant change in immunomodulatory treatment were excluded.
Results:
For the entire cohort (86 patients), median age at diagnosis was … Show more
