Abstract

Behçet’s disease is a multisystemic inflammatory disease of unknown etiology with chronic course and exacerbations. Multiple proinflammatory molecules, chiefly tumor necrosis factor- (TNF-) α, interleukin- (IL-) 1β, and IL-6 are oversecreted in Behçet’s disease. TNF-α inhibitors and interpheron-α are routinely used for treatment of Behçet’s uveitis. But some patients might not respond to these agents, or the beneficial response might drop off over time. Therefore additional therapies for refractory patients with Behçet’s uveitis are needed. In this review, the studies about preexisting and recently developing biological agents for treatment of Behçet’s uveitis, except TNF-α inhibitors are summarized.

Özet

Behçet hastalığı etyolojisi bilinmeyen, ataklarla seyreden, kronik, multisistemik, inflamatuar bir hastalıktır. Behçet hastalığında başta tümör nekrozis faktör- (TNF-) α , interlökin- (IL-) 1β ve IL-6 olmak üzere birçok proinflamatuar molekülün miktarı artmaktadır. Behçet üveiti tedavisinde TNF-α inhibitörleri ile interferon-α rutin olarak kullanıma girmiştir. Ancak bazı hastalar bu ajanlara yanıt vermemekte ya da alınan yanıtın etkisi zaman içinde azalabilmektedir. Bu nedenle dirençli Behçet üveiti vakaları için ilave ilaçlara gereksinim duyulmaktadır. Bu derlemede Behçet üveiti tedavisinde, TNF-α inhibitörleri dışında mevcut olan ve yeni geliştirilmekte olan ajanlarla ilgili çalışmalar özetlenmiştir.
