The Influence of Subclinical Active Inflammation on IFX Pharmacokinetic Modeling and Disease Progression Assessment: Findings from a Prospective Real-World Study in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Patients.

In this 2-year real-world study, readily available clinical covariates, notably FC, significantly impacted IFX availability in IBD patients. We demonstrated that subclinical active inflammation, as mirrored by FC or CRP, substantially influenced IFX clearance. Importantly, FC emerged as a pivotal determinant, not only of IFX pharmacokinetics but also of disease progression. These findings underscore the need to integrate FC into forthcoming IFX pharmacokinetic models, amplifying its clinical significance.
