Highly sensitive therapeutic drug monitoring of infliximab in serum by targeted mass spectrometry in comparison to ELISA data

CONCLUSIONS: In this study, a semi-automated workflow was employed and tested with 8 patients and corresponding replicates (n = 3-4). We demonstrated the robust implementation of calibration curves for the absolute quantification of infliximab in patient samples, with coefficients of variation ranging from 0.5 to 9%. Taken together, we have developed a platform enabling the rapid (2 days of sample preparation and 30 min of measurement time per sample) and robust quantification of …
