We investigated exposure-response relationships in induction and maintenance studies considering patients' baseline characteristics. Adalimumab exposures were simulated using the established population pharmacokinetic model. Efficacy end points (clinical remission/endoscopic response) at Weeks 4, 12, and 56 were evaluated in exposure-response analyses using multivariable logistic regression. Analyses showed an increasing trend with heterogeneity between induction regimens, which suggested that average concentration has an impact on coprimary efficacy end points within each group, but data did not fit a single-response curve. Although higher concentrations within arms were associated with improved outcomes, increasing the concentration through a higher induction dose was not associated with increasing clinical remission/endoscopic response at Week 4/12. A model including inverse effective clearance eliminated heterogeneity and described trends across induction regimens with a single curve. In the maintenance study, the response rates at Week 56 showed no heterogeneity. In the induction study, patients with lower effective adalimumab clearance responded better, whereas in the maintenance study average concentration drove primary efficacy end points at Week 56. Research extending these findings to other indications is needed.
