Infliximab and Methotrexate in Ankylosing Spondylitis (SPAXIM)

January 13, 2017 updated by: University Hospital, Tours

Effect of Methotrexate on the Relation Dose-effect of Infliximab in Ankylosing Spondylitis

There is a great individual variability of pharmacokinetic of infliximab in patients treated for ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Moreover, some patients have a treatment with methotrexate (MTX), others have not.

Thus, the aim of this study is to assess the effect of MTX on the pharmacokinetic properties of infliximab in 30 patients treated for AS, 15 with MTX, 15 without.
