Research line
Effectiveness and complications of immunosuppressive treatment in patients with inflammatory arthritis.
Summary
The line of research evaluates the effectiveness, predictors and complications of treatments in rheumatologic patients, mainly with inflammatory arthritis, such as rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis and psoriatic arthritis. The use of immunobiological agents, conventional immunosuppressants and corticosteroid therapy is evaluated through the analysis of longitudinal inception cohorts, with an emphasis on drug survival, mechanisms of action, response predictors and medication withdrawal strategies. Furthermore, treatment complications are evaluated, such as infusion reactions and infections. Strategies to reduce infectious risk are studied, such as vaccination and other preventive approaches. The line of research evaluates the safety, immunogenicity and effectiveness of vaccines from different platforms, as well as strategies to optimize the vaccine response, such as the impact of temporarily interrupting immunosuppressants after vaccination.
