Abstract:

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients failing chemical therapies need monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) but many show loss of response (LOR). MAbs have complex pharmacokinetics (PK). Many factors impact MAb PK: albumin weight disease (severity stage co-morbidities) glucose and immunosuppressants. Anti-drug antibodies (ADA) can affect PK and can occur quickly. Causes of LOR are low exposure inappropriate dosing high disease activity and ADA. Infliximab (IFX) discontinuation at 4 yrs is 46%. Post-hoc analyses suggested maintaining measurable IFX trough concentrations (TC) improves outcome. Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM)-based dosing is cost-effective and may reduce LOR. Identifying effective doses using TDM is not intuitive or static owing to changing patient status and factors. A Bayesian dashboard system (DS) for MAbs for IBD was chosen due to need to quickly find appropriate doses. Retrospective studies showed faster identification of individualized dosage with DS with predicted LOR in advance of low TC. DS treatment recommendations were substantially different from standard of care but feasible. The DS is in clinical trials evaluating usefulness.
