Efficacy and safety of biological agents in adult-onset Still’s disease

Abstract

This is the longest follow-up of a cohort of AOSD patients treated with biological agents. Our data show that biologics are safe and generally effective in the long-term management of AOSD, particularly in cases with systemic disease, and suggest that a clinical response can be obtained in almost all AOSD patients, although a switch to drugs with a different mechanism of action may be necessary.
