Adherence With Intravenous Biologics

Their results argue for a change to parity between small-molecule agents and biologics when it comes to Inflation Reduction Act price negotiation timelines, the researchers say.

Clinicians have very strong concerns about the cost of biologics to treat food allergies, but despite these concerns, enthusiasm in the field for their use remains very high.

A recent study has found that biologics may have an effect on arterial wall inflammation and plaque composition, which offsets the influence of joint-derived inflammation in patients with arthritis.

Studies measuring patient preference stacked up in subcutaneous administration’s favor, according to a recently published review. The difference between subcutaneous and intravenous administration were less clear cut among the studies measuring health-related quality of life.

Pharmaceutical companies are making investments in research of therapies that target three different antigen-binding sites. Trispecific antibody research is still in its earliest phases and is focused on applications in cancer, inflammatory conditions and infectious diseases.

They work by inhibiting inflammatory cytokines. But in a small percentage of patients antiinflammatory biologics may stir up “paradoxical psoriasis.”
