This title provides a practically applicable guide to the use of immunomodulators and biologics to treat cutaneous diseases. Chapters cover the mechanisms, applications and safety concerns pertaining to the latest systemic therapies. Extensive guidance is provided on how to design lab monitoring schedules, manage patient follow-up visits, develop tapering plans and assess adverse outcomes. The book also reviews how to initiate off-label applications and establish methods of matching mechanisms for a range of diseases to the mechanisms of the available therapies. The latest updates in the development and utility of systemic immunomodulators, biologics and JAK Inhibitors from clinical trials and updated guidelines are also discussed.
Immunomodulators and Biologics in Dermatologic Treatment comprehensively describes the use of a range of systemic therapies for immunomodulation in dermatology and how best to incorporate these into practice. It therefore represents a valuable resource for novice readers and experienced dermatologists involved in the management of these patients.
