Brief Summary

In recent years, biologics (such as infliximab, adalimumab, vedolizumab, and ustekinumab) have shown great potential in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), transforming the traditional treatment model for IBD. Despite achieving good efficacy, some patients do not respond to biologics, which may be related to low drug concentrations in the blood. Guidelines recommend therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) during the treatment of IBD. Currently, many commercial testing methods are available to detect the trough levels of biologics; however, data on the diagnostic accuracy and practicality of these methods remain limited. This study compares the detection of blood samples from IBD patients after administration using ELISA, PICA, and CLIA methods, aiming to provide more accurate guidance and evidence for TDM in Chinese IBD patients undergoing biologic therapy.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Based on the treating physician's judgment, IBD patients require biologic therapy with infliximab (IFX), adalimumab (ADA), vedolizumab (VDZ), or ustekinumab (UST) .

You may qualify if:

  • Patients aged 18 years or older; diagnosed with inflammatory bowel disease according to the 2019 European ECCO-ESGAR guidelines; who have not previously received any biologic therapy or, based on the treating physician's judgment, require treatment with infliximab (IFX), adalimumab (ADA), vedolizumab (VDZ), or ustekinumab (UST) .

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients who refuse treatment with infliximab, adalimumab, vedolizumab, or ustekinumab for various reasons, or those with contraindications; patients currently using antibiotics or who have been in contact with probiotics/antibiotics in the past month; those with concomitant active autoimmune diseases, active tumors, etc.; those with severe oral diseases; patients experiencing other diseases unrelated to inflammatory bowel disease during treatment but may affect the efficacy of inflammatory bowel disease treatment; pregnant or lactating women; those deemed unsuitable for participation in this study by the investigator's judgment.
