Title: Adalimumab-induced autoimmune hepatitis. Author: Adar T, Mizrahi M, Pappo O, Scheiman-Elazary A, Shibolet O. Journal: J Clin Gastroenterol; 2010 Jan; 44(1):e20-2. PubMed ID: 19593165. Abstract: Antitumor necrosis factor antibodies are widely used in the treatment of autoimmune diseases. We describe the occurrence of autoimmune hepatitis in a patient treated with adalimumab, a fully human IgG antibody against tumor necrosis factor, for psoriatic arthritis. The patient made a full recovery after discontinuation of adalimumab and treatment with steroids. This is the first reported case of adalimumab-induced autoimmune hepatitis.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
