Evaluation of biological therapies in autoimmune hepatitis: A case-based systematic review
Belimumab and Rituximab show promise as effective alternatives for managing refractory AIH, demonstrating significant improvements in clinical outcomes and liver function. However, the variability in patient responses to different therapies highlights the need for personalized treatment strategies. The risk of AIH induced by anti-TNF therapies underscores the need for vigilant monitoring and prompt symptom recognition. These findings support the incorporation of biologic agents into AIH treatment protocols, particularly for patients who do not respond to conventional therapies.
