We're delighted to announce the academic appointments by King's College London for two members of the Viapath leadership team.

At the invitation of the British High Commissioner to Nigeria, Dr Yvonne Daniel travelled to Africa for a series of workshops with other experts to discuss sickle cell disease.

The development of infliximab (IFX) drug level and anti-drug antibody (ADA) testing has allowed a personalised approach to IFX use in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We present our 2-year experience at a tertiary IBD centre.

Commercial assays are now available for therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of anti-TNF drugs and antibodies (ADAb). Utility of free versus total ADAb assays remains debatable, further complicated by lack of assay standardisation. Here we report analytical comparison of 3 commercially available assays for Infliximab (IFX) and Adalimumab (ADAL) drug levels (DL) and ADAb.

Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) of Infliximab (IFX) and Adalimumab (ADAL) has been in use in our centre since 2012. Here we present the TDM experience of our laboratory service at Viapath, St Thomas’ Hospital.

The development of adalimumab (Ada) drug and antibody testing has allowed a personalised approach to complex inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) treatment. We present our 2-year experience at a tertiary IBD referral centre.

Clinical trial results suggest that measurement of antiTNF drug levels (ATL) and antibodies (ATA) may have a cost-saving as well as clinically beneficial effect in patients with IBD. We aimed to assess whether selective monitoring of ATL and ATA reduces prescribing costs and how it affects clinical decisions in ordinary clinical practice.

A summer series of webinars, the next Innovation Academy event begins with our first webinar next week on 2 July - register now!

This is now the second year we have shared our Quality Account publicly as a demonstration of Viapath’s commitment to quality and transparency.
