Popis: Background Owing to similar efficacy, switching from intravenous (IV) to subcutaneous (SC) infliximab (IFX) is an attractive option, but the feasibility of switching patients with intensified IFX therapy remains unknown. We assessed the clinical and pharmacological evolution after switching from IV to SC IFX in IBD patients to evaluate the feasibility and to determine the equivalence between IV and SC doses. Methods All IBD patients in clinical remission (CDAI Results Among, 246 screened patients, 65 (26.4%) were not eligible (no clinical remission or physician’s decision), and, 71.8% (130/181) accepted to switch to SC IFX (Crohn’s disease = 73,1%, concomitant immunosuppressant = 25.4%, median faecal calprotectin = 35 µg/g [16–104])., 43.1% of the, 130 patients received, 5mg/kg/8 wk. In, 130 patients, clinical relapse leading to therapeutic escalation was observed in, 11.1% including, 4.0%, 8.6%, 11.1% and, 40.0% in patients treated with, 5mg/kg/8wk, 10 mg/kg/8wk, 10mg/kg/6 wk and, 10mg/kg/4 wk, respectively. Dose increase (240 mg/2 wk) induced clinical remission in, 92.3% of relapsers. Infliximab trough levels (TL) were significantly higher after switching from IV to SC IFX:, 9.8 ±6.4 vs, 14.4 ±5.7 (p Infliximab TL remained stable (variation V1-V0 < ±, 1) in, 4.3%, 15.0 %, 33.3 % and, 50.0 % of the patients with the following IV doses:, 5 mg/kg/8 wk, 10 mg/kg/8 wk, 10 mg/kg/6 wk and, 10 mg/kg/4 wk, respectively (p=0.003). No patient developed anti-IFX antibodies. TL before the switch (8.4 ±5.6 for non-relapsers vs, 12.0 ±7.2 for relapsers; p=0.12) and TL after the switch (14.5 ±5.6 vs, 13.6 ±5.6; p=0.63) were not significantly associated with the risk of relapse. In contrast, the risk of relapse was higher in patients with stable or decreasing TL after the switch compared to those with increased TL (31.8% vs, 7.1%; p=0.024). The type of IBD and concomitant immunosuppressant were not associated with the risk of relapse. Patients’ acceptability was better with SC injections compared to IV infusions (10pts-acceptability numerical scale = 8.7 ±1.6 vs, 6.8 ±0.9; p Conclusion Switching from IV to SC IFX is feasible and well-accepted leading to a low risk of relapse in patients with IBD.
