Autoimmune Therapeutics

Autoimmune therapeutics are treatments designed to help manage and treat autoimmune diseases, conditions where the immune system mistakenly attacks the body's own tissues. These therapies aim to reduce inflammation, prevent tissue damage, and control symptoms by modulating or suppressing the immune response. They include medications such as immunosuppressants, biologics (targeted biological agents), and other innovative drugs. The goal is to improve patients' quality of life by effectively controlling the disease while minimizing side effects. Advances in this field are focused on developing more specific and safer treatments to better address various autoimmune conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, and lupus.
