Guidance

Evidence-based recommendations on therapeutic monitoring of tumour necrosis factor (TNF)‑alpha inhibitors (LISA‑TRACKER, IDKmonitor and Promonitor ELISA kits) in people with Crohn’s disease.

During development of this guidance, NICE became aware that the RIDASCREEN IFX Monitoring (R-Biopharm) ELISA kit for monitoring infliximab levels received a CE mark. This new test is based on the Leuven in-house ELISA. For further information please see NICE’s medtech innovation briefing on RIDASCREEN tests for monitoring infliximab in inflammatory bowel disease.

Is this guidance up to date?
