- Title
Targeted Immunomodulatory Therapy: An Overview.
- Authors
LEFEBVRE, ASHLEY L.; MCAULIFFE, LAURA
- Abstract
Monoclonal antibodies and other biologic response modifiers have allowed for targeted drug therapy in managing various autoimmune diseases. A number of immune pathways have been exploited in the development of targeted immunomodulatory therapies, including cytokine-directed therapies such as tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukins, integrins, B-cells, and co-stimulation modulators. With new targeted therapies in the pipeline, more options are becoming available for treatment of autoimmune diseases.
