| Abstract | BACKGROUND: The pharmacokinetics of golimumab, a human monoclonal antibody that inhibits the activity of tumor necrosis factor , after a single subcutaneous (SC) or intravenous (IV) administration have been previously studied. OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to assess the pharmacokinetics of golimumab after multiple SC or IV administrations in patients with active rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The effect of concomitant methotrexate (MTX) use on golimumab pharmacokinetics was evaluated. METHODS: In this open-label, randomized, Phase I study, 49 adult patients with RA received SC golimumab 100 mg (n = 33) every 4 weeks through week 20 or IV golimumab 2 mg/kg (n = 16) at weeks 0 and 12. Serial blood samples were collected, and serum golimumab concentration was measured with an electrochemiluminescent immunoassay. Golimumab pharmacokinetic parameters were derived with the use of a noncompartmental analysis. Adverse events were monitored at every visit. RESULTS: The population was predominantly Caucasian (84%) and female (76%), and the median age was 57 years. After SC golimumab administration, the serum golimumab concentration achieved steady state by â¼12 weeks with mean trough serum concentrations ranging from 1.15 to 1.24 µg/mL. After the final 30-minute IV infusion of golimumab 2 mg/kg, the mean (SD) clearance (CL) was 7.5 (2.6) mL/d/kg. The mean terminal half-life after SC and IV administrations was â¼13 days. The mean absolute bioavailability for SC golimumab was estimated to be 53%. The geometric mean of golimumab CL/F in patients with and without concomitant MTX use was 13.9 and 21.2 mL/d/kg, respectively, and the geometric mean ratio of CL/F was 65.5% (90% CI: 45.2%-94.9%, P = 0.06). Golimumab was generally well tolerated. No malignancies or deaths occurred during the study. CONCLUSIONS: Pharmacokinetics of golimumab were consistent after SC or IV administration in this population of patients with RA. Golimumab was well tolerated and no unexpected adverse events were observed in this trial. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
