Targeted Biologic Agents in Rheumatic Diseases: Antibody and Receptor Therapies
This figure illustrates the currently approved and in-trial antibody-based and receptor-based biologic agents (highlighted in red) that target primary immune cells (B cells, T cells, macrophages, endothelial cells, osteoclasts, and fibroblasts) alongside circulating mediators such as TNF, IL-15, VEGF, RANKL, BLyS, and CD80/CD86. These agents represent significant advancements in the treatment of rheumatic diseases, as explored by Rothe et al. (2008) in their review of therapeutic innovations utilizing recombinant proteins.
