Drugs and Biologics

Drugs and Important Biological Agents (IBA) related to Autoimmune Diseases:

1.	AntigensIBA 04/01/2005 - "Once a better understanding of the normal processes and aberrancies that lead to disease are had, one can look forward to interventions to reestablish tolerance, perhaps by something as simple as a capsule containing the appropriate self antigen-containing molecules--"oral tolerizing" as a cure for autoimmune diseases! There is much promising evidence in favor of the efficacy of oral tolerance in animal models, but as of yet, human disease has proven a harder nut to crack" 11/17/1998 - "A combination of oral antigen feeding and administration of anti-IL-12 may thus be useful in the treatment of autoimmune diseases and may be a potent means to modulate peripheral tolerance." 06/01/1995 - "A statistical analysis of autoantibody repertoires has important possible applications: it detects spontaneous or therapeutically induced changes of repertoires, it identifies regions of interest, it supports the isolation of relevant antigens, and it will also be helpful in the diagnosis of autoimmune diseases." 11/01/2001 - "Despite the powerful suppressive effect of oral antigen exposure observed in experimental models, its application in clinical trials of autoimmune diseases has not yet yielded the expected beneficial results." 06/01/1999 - "Therapeutic intervention to selectively manipulate antigen transport by dendritic cells or to influence antigen presentation may prove beneficial for the treatment of autoimmune diseases" Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
2.	Cyclosporine (Ciclosporin)FDA LinkGeneric 02/01/1998 - "Effective treatment of autoimmune diseases with extremely low dose cyclosporine." 08/01/1990 - "As a result of these observations, cyclosporin A, a drug with proven efficacy in autoimmune diseases and bone marrow insufficiency, is being used in these cases" 03/26/1999 - "Several clinical studies have shown that cyclosporin A (CsA) is effective for treating a variety of chronic inflammatory and autoimmune diseases" 05/01/1986 - "This study supports the possibility that treatment with cyclosporin and (Nva2)-cyclosporin might be effective in the treatment of certain autoimmune diseases in man." 02/01/1996 - "Chronic cyclosporine therapy, started at an early age, is effective in controlling the autoimmune disease in MRL/lpr mice, including the ocular and lacrimal gland lesions." Get all the results and reference details, order at left...
3.	Intravenous Immunoglobulins (IVIG)FDA Link 06/01/2005 - "The efficacy of IVIG has been established only in several autoimmune diseases; clinical reports of trials, series, and case reports indicate significant improvement in many more autoimmune diseases" 12/01/1993 - "Results from the present study suggest a novel mechanism by which IVIg may be beneficial in human autoimmune diseases." 01/01/1999 - "PURPOSE: Intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIg) therapy has been reported to be beneficial in a large number of autoantibody-mediated or self-reactive T cells-associated autoimmune diseases" 10/01/1998 - "High dose intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIG) have been shown to be effective in different autoimmune diseases" 11/01/1994
