Abstract

BACKGROUND: Trough levels of the post-induction serum infliximab (IFX) are associated with short-term and long-term responses of Crohn's disease patients to IFX, but the inter-individual differences are large. We aimed to elucidate whether single gene polymorphisms (SNPs) within , , , , , , , and partially account for these differences and employed a multivariate regression model to predict patients' post-induction IFX levels.
