Optimizing Therapies Using Therapeutic Drug Monitoring: Current Strategies and Future Perspectives

Peter M. Irving et al.

Summary: Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) is an optimization strategy in the treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases, aiming to achieve maximal treatment benefits by monitoring drug concentrations. There are variations in optimal drug concentrations based on treatment targets, disease phenotypes, inflammatory burden, and sampling timing. This review discusses the role of TDM in biologic and oral small molecule therapies, the differences between reactive and proactive TDM, and the areas where evidence is lacking. Future adaptations in TDM usage may contribute to personalized treatment for patients with IBD.

Summary: In consecutive CD patients treated with UST, the addition of TDM into routine clinical practice did not significantly impact clinical decisions and there was no association between short-term clinical outcomes and serum [UST]. Further studies are warranted before clinicians routinely implement UST TDM into clinical practice.

Effectiveness of Ustekinumab Dose Escalation in Patients With Crohn's Disease

Jacob E. Ollech et al.

Summary: Shortening the ustekinumab dose interval to 4 weeks improved clinical and biological indices of disease activity in patients with Crohn's disease who did not respond to the standard dose every 8 weeks. This approach could be effective and safe for patients who lose response to the standard dose of ustekinumab.
