Inflammatory Bowel Diseases Clinical Trial
Official title:
Safety, Efficacy, and Cost-effectiveness of a Reduced Infliximab Infusion Time Protocol
Remicade is a common medicine used for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease. This medication is given as an intravenous infusion over 2 hours. Studies have suggested it is safe to give the infusion at a faster rate. The investigators would like to see if the infusion can be given over 1 hour. The investigators expect that increasing the rate of infusion WILL NOT lead to an increase in infusion reactions and will be just as safe and effective as the standard 2 hours dose.
1.1 Infliximab use in IBD Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) affects 349 per 100,000 adults in the United States and is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Infliximab is an effective and commonly used medication to treat patients with IBD, but a main safety concern is an antibody-induced infusion reaction. The incidence of infusion reactions is ~6.5%, with mild, moderate, or severe reactions occurring in 3.1%, 1.2%, and 1% of infusions, respectively. Because of the concern for infusions reactions, infliximab is FDA approved to be infused over 2 hours or more. The typical interval for infusions is every eight weeks but is at times reduced to every 4 weeks in patients with IBD. This infusion time represents a significant inconvenience to patients who receive regular maintenance infusions. 1.2 Accelerated Infliximab Infusions Multiple studies outside of the United States have demonstrated that a shortened infusion time to one hour, and even thirty minutes is safe and tolerable with similar rates of infusion reactions compared to an infusion time of two hours. However, these studies have differed in dosing, interval, pre-medication allowed in the study, and they are not randomized controlled studies. It has also been shown that reducing infusion times leads to cost savings and increased patient satisfaction. A recent study conducted in the United States at the University of California in San Francisco, confirmed that a shortened infusion time of one hour is safe and tolerated. 1.3 Rationale The hypothesis is that a shortened infusion time to one hour will be safe and tolerated, with equal infusion reaction rates compared to two-hour infusion ;
