Therapeutic Drug Monitoring (TDM):

Therapeutic Drug Monitoring of biologicals drug’s usefulness is now accepted in the light of published work from various clinical trials.  Several algorithms for TDM have been published when using biological drugs.  By TDM, effective use of biological drugs such as infliximab and adalimumab have been increased for the benefit of the patients and found to be cost-effective as well and the same applies for the other biological drugs as well. Apart from the clinical usage of biological drug testing also it is important for PK and measurements and immunogenicity testing for especially for pharmaceutical companies which are developing biosimilar drugs. Accurate measurement of biological drug trough levels and antibody to biological drug gained high importance during the course of treatment.
