Abstract:
The number of therapeutic antibodies available in rheumatology increases every year, mainly indicated in chronic inflammatory rheumatisms and other immune-mediated inflammatory diseases. The choice between all these monoclonal antibodies depends on their specificities, patients and diseases characteristics. Until now, there is no reliable biomarker, predictive of response for specialized medicine purpose. Today, therapeutic drug monitoring and anti-drug antibodies testing can help to better adapt the dose of the drug and to help in the decision to switch to another biological drug according to the activity of the inflammatory disease.
