pubmed:abstractText |
Anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha (anti-TNF- alpha ) antibodies have been used for the treatment of chronic inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and psoriasis arthritis. Such antibody therapies result in a severe interference with the patient's immune system. Increased rates of upper respiratory tract infection, reactivation of latent tuberculosis, and other systemic infectious diseases have been reported among patients receiving anti-TNF- alpha antibodies.
