[CIS PIDD] [cis-pidd] ADA2 deficiency - Infliximab dosage

[CIS-PIDD]

That is the standard IBD load.  I suggest you do proactive therapeutic drug monitoring after the load is complete to adjust the dosing.  Check level no sooner than 4 weeks after the third dose.  Ideally a true trough is helpful so 6 weeks after third dose would be best. Infliximab is more antigenic (up to 25 percent can develop anti drug antibodies) than other anti TNFs so  I typically premedicate with Tylenol, Benadryl, and IV hydrocortisone.

Infliximab level testing is available from labcorp, ARUP, Prometheus, Mayo lab, and Miraca for those of us in the US.

Levels can be impacted by extends of disease, albumin, and degree of inflammation.

Best,

Dear all,

I am planning to treat an ADA2 deficient patient with Infliximab and would like to know the dosage and the dosing intervall already used sucessfully.
Is it 5mg/kg at week 0, 2, 6 and thereafter every 8 weeks?

Thank you and best regards,

Fabian
