Therapeutic drug monitoring is a useful clinical decision aid in managing patients with inflammatory bowel disease treated with anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF). Various techniques are available to evaluate drug trough levels, and among these a point-of-care (POC) method has been proposed to overcome the limitations inherent to other methodologies. In this study we aimed to evaluate the capability of POC to discriminate between relapse and remission disease phases, and to assess the concordance of the POC and homogeneous mobility shift assay (HMSA) results.

Abstract

Therapeutic drug monitoring is a useful clinical decision aid in managing patients with inflammatory bowel disease treated with anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF). Various techniques are available to evaluate drug trough levels, and among these a point-of-care (POC) method has been proposed to overcome the limitations inherent to other methodologies. In this study we aimed to evaluate the capability of POC to discriminate between relapse and remission disease phases, and to assess the concordance of the POC and homogeneous mobility shift assay (HMSA) results.
