Adalimumab Treatment in Patients with Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada Disease.

Abstract:

PURPOSE:To evaluate the clinical outcome and safety of adalimumab in patients with Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada (VKH) disease. METHODS:VKH patients treated with adalimumab seen at the University of Buenos Aires were reviewed. Main outcome measures were visual acuity, anterior segment inflammation, optic nerve inflammation (ONI), steroid sparing effect, number of immunosuppressives, and relapses. RESULTS:In total, 14 VKH patients, mean age 23.07 ± 8 years; median of adalimumab treatment 10 months, were analyzed. At start of adalimumab treatment (baseline), median of corticosteroid dose was 20 mg and at 6 months, 4 mg. At baseline, 11 patients were on immunosuppressive treatment and at 6 months only four continued with immunosuppressive therapy. In the 28 eyes, the median of active inflammation was 2 at baseline and 0 after 6 months on adalimumab. CONCLUSIONS:Treatment with adalimumab is an effective and safe option, reducing the need for oral corticosteroid and conventional immunosuppressive therapy.
