Biologic Agents and Secondary Immune Deficiency

Copyright © 2019 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved..

Biologics are protein-based pharmaceuticals derived from living organisms or their proteins. We discuss the mechanism of action for currently approved biologics and a give summary of the studies on immune suppression from biologics. Most of these studies have been conducted with rheumatology patients, and many in adults. Their relevance for children is explored and existing gaps in data for children are highlighted.
