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 FCGR3A, ATG16L1, C1orf106, OSM, OSMR, NF-κB1, IL1RN, and IL10 partially account for these differences and employed a multivariate regression model to predict patients' post-induction IFX levels.Methods
The retrospective study included 189 Crohn's disease patients undergoing IFX therapy. Post-induction IFX levels were measured and 41 tag SNPs within eight genes were genotyped. Associations between SNPs and IFX levels were analysed. Then, a multiv
