Genetically engineered biological drugs in therapeutic practice

Abstract

Therapy with genetically engineered biological drugs is a new approach to the treatment of autoimmune and allergic diseases in pulmonology, hematology, gastroenterology, neurology, and oncology. Today, thanks to them, it is possible to radically improve the quality of life of patients with diseases that were previously considered incurable and poorly controlled. In some cases, the use of therapy can achieve long-term and stable remission. The article provides an overview of genetically engineered biological drugs used in various therapeutic areas and the mechanisms of their action.
