DOI: 10.1111/bcp.14364
Abstract: Evidence for the benefits of pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) monitoring of infliximab in patients with Crohn's disease (CD) remains scarce. We aimed to develop a population (pop)PK/PD model to characterise the infliximab dose–exposure–biomarker–response (faecal… read more here.
