Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of infliximab (IFX) is useful in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Therapeutic cut-offs to predict active disease and the influence of thiopurines on drug levels (DL) according to 6-thioguanine nucleotide (TGN) are not defined. There is limited data on the utility of free anti-drug antibodies (ADAb) against total ADAb. We assessed the utility of TDM of IFX in IBD using a commercially available ELISA and investigated the influence of TGNs on DL and free/total ADAb.

Some, but not all, studies have demonstrated a relationship between therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of adalimumab (ADA) and outcomes in Crohn's disease (CD). We evaluated the utility of TDM of ADA in patients with CD using two commercially-available ELISA.
