Abstract
Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of etanercept (ETA) use in juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA).
Methods: The 24-month data of patients with JIA on etanercept in a single center were evaluated retrospectively. Response to treatment was assessed according to 10-joint Juvenile Arthritis Disease Activity Score (JADAS10), and JIA-American College of Rheumatology (ACR) improvement criteria. Safety assessments were based on adverse event (AE) reports.
Results: The study included 152 patients with JIA. The mean age at diagnosis of JIA was 8.5 ± 4.4 years, and treatment with ETA started at a mean age of 11.1 ± 4.4 years. The mean duration of ETA use was 16 ± 11.1 months. The mean JADAS10 score at baseline was 18.5 ± 5.9. By the third month, it had reduced to 8.6 ± 6.6 and by the sixth month to 5.7 ± 6. By the twelfth month, the JADAS10 score was 4.9 ± 6.7, and by the twenty-fourth month, it had worsened to 7.3 ± 7.8. ACR50 response was achieved in 79.6% of patients at 3 months, 67.1% at 6 months, 79.3% at twelfth months, 70.7% at the twenty-fourth month. During ETA treatment, 10 patients required hospitalization for serious infections.
Conclusion: Etanercept is a safe and effective option for patients with JIA. However, variations in response between JIA subtypes highlight the need for individualized treatment strategies.
期刊介绍:
Expert Opinion on Biological Therapy (1471-2598; 1744-7682) is a MEDLINE-indexed, international journal publishing peer-reviewed research across all aspects of biological therapy.
Each article is structured to incorporate the author’s own expert opinion on the impact of the topic on research and clinical practice and the scope for future development.
The audience consists of scientists and managers in the healthcare and biopharmaceutical industries and others closely involved in the development and application of biological therapies for the treatment of human disease.
The journal welcomes:
Reviews covering therapeutic antibodies and vaccines, peptides and proteins, gene therapies and gene transfer technologies, cell-based therapies and regenerative medicine
Drug evaluations reviewing the clinical data on a particular biological agent
Original research papers reporting the results of clinical investigations on biological agents and biotherapeutic-based studies with a strong link to clinical practice
Comprehensive coverage in each review is complemented by the unique Expert Collection format and includes the following sections:
Expert Opinion – a personal view of the data presented in the article, a discussion on the developments that are likely to be important in the future, and the avenues of research likely to become exciting as further studies yield more detailed results;
Article Highlights – an executive summary of the author’s most critical points.
