Infliximab and its anti-drug antibody (ADA) serum concentrations exhibit a strong correlation with clinical response and loss of response. The use of therapeutic drug monitoring to measure the concentration of infliximab and ADA can facilitate clinical decision-making, helping patients attain optimal therapeutic effects. However, there are still limitations to the existing infliximab and its ADA detection methods. Therefore, this study aimed to develop and validate enzyme -linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)-based methods for measuring infliximab and its ADA levels in human plasma according to the general recommendations for immunoassays. Free infliximab is bound by recombinant TNF-alpha and detected using HRP-labeled anti-human antibody. The ADA is captured by on-plate-coated infliximab and recognized by biotin-labeled infliximab. Two bridging ELISA assays were developed and after assay optimization and validation, these assays have been applied in ten patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). In infliximab detection assay, a standard curve ranging from 0.10 mu g/mL to 8.0 mu g/mL with great precision and accuracy has been established. Drug tolerance of the ADA assay was that 100 ng/mL ADA could tolerate at least 5.0 mu g/mL infliximab in the plasma using a commercially available monoclonal anti-infliximab antibody as the positive control. The ADA screening and confirmatory assays achieved a sensitivity of 36.74 ng/mL and 37.15 ng/mL, respectively. All other assay characteristics met the requirements. The mean concentration of infliximab in eight patients with IBD was 7.88 (1.87-21.1) mu g/mL, and the ADA levels were all negative. Moreover, the concentrations of infliximab in the remaining two patients were below the LLOQ and the ADAs were positive. Thus, accurate and sensitive ELISA methods have been developed and validated for the detection of infliximab and its ADA concentrations and have been successfully applied to clinical therapeutic drug monitoring.
