Abstract :
[en] Pharmacogenetic studies will certainly contribute to a better management of medication in inflammatory bowel diseases. Infliximab is the most efficient drug in refractory and fistulising Crohn's disease. However, about one third of the patients do not respond to this treatment. Several studies have been performed to identify predictive factors of the response to infliximab in CD. We attempt to summarize the current knowledge on the use of infliximab in CD and focus on the result of these studies and more particularly on pharmacogenetic aspects.
