Monitoring of adalimumab and antibodies-to-adalimumab levels in patient serum by the homogeneous mobility shift assay.

This report describes the analytical validation and application of the homogeneous mobility shift assay (HMSA) method for the measurement of adalimumab and human antibodies-to-adalimumab (ATA) in serum samples from patients who have lost response to adalimumab treatment. Validation of the ATA- and the adalimumab-HMSA revealed a lower limit of detection to be 0.026 U/mL for ATA and 0.

Development and validation of a homogeneous mobility shift assay for the measurement of infliximab and antibodies-to-infliximab levels in patient serum.

Antibody-based drugs such as infliximab (IFX) are effective for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and other immune-mediated disorders. The development of antibodies against these drugs may result in unfavorable consequences, including the loss of drug efficacy, hypersensitivity reactions, and other adverse events. Therefore, accurate monitoring of serum drug and anti-drug antibody levels should be an important part of therapy for patients being treated with an antibody-based drug.
