Summary

This study aims to test the hypothesis that the accelerated infusion of infliximab is not inferior to the conventional 2 hour infusion with respect to the frequency of infusion reaction.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Standard 2 hours-infusion

Patients without any infusion reactions during more than 4 infusions for 2 hours are randomized to one of three study groups. After randomization to 2 hours-infusion group, patients get 5 mg/kg infliximab infusion for 2 hours. Total infusion number after randomization is 7.

DRUG

Accelerated 1 hour-infusion

Patients without any infusion reactions during more than 4 infusions for 2 hours are randomized to one of three study groups. After randomization to 1 hour-infusion group, patients get 5 mg/kg infliximab infusion for 1 hour. Total infusion number after randomization is 7.

DRUG

Accelerated 30 minutes-infusion

Patients without any infusion reactions during more than 4 infusions for 2 hours are randomized to one of three study groups. After randomization to 30 minutes-infusion group, patients get 5 mg/kg infliximab infusion for 1 hour. If any infusion reactions do not develop during 2 infusions for 1 hour, patients get further 5 mg/kg infliximab infusion for 30 minutes. The total number of 30 minutes-infusion is 5.
