Abstract
The present invention provides methods for personalized therapeutic management of a disease in order to optimize therapy and/or monitor therapeutic efficacy. In particular, the present invention comprises measuring an array of one or a plurality of biomarkers at a plurality of time points over the course of therapy with a therapeutic agent to determine a mucosal healing index for selecting therapy, optimizing therapy, reducing toxicity, and/or monitoring the efficacy of therapeutic treatment. In certain instances, the therapeutic agent is a TNFα inhibitor for the treatment of a TNFα-mediated disease or disorder.
