Abstract:Conclusion and relevanceIn the studied population sample of patients with IBD, a positive correlation between the concentration of adalimumab and prealbumin was observed. To our knowledge this is the first study to find this association, and as prealbumin is a protein with a smaller half-life than albumin, it could be used as a predictive biomarker of adalimumab clearance modification.
