DAB₄₈₆IL‐2 fusion toxin in refractory rheumatoid arthritis

Abstract

The results of this open trial provide preliminary evidence for a potential therapeutic effect of DAB486IL-2 in RA, with an acceptable safety profile. Reversible transaminase elevations limit escalation of the dosage beyond 0.1 mg/kg/day. A controlled study of DAB486IL-2 is required to determine the efficacy of this high-affinity IL-2R-targeted fusion toxin in the treatment of RA.
