چکیده

Introduction In the past decade biologics have changed the management of juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). Many studies have evaluated the effectiveness and safety of the available biologics in JIA. Biological therapy used to be reserved for the severely ill JIA patients refractory to conventional therapy. Due to the treatment success of several biologics, more and more patients with JIA are now being treated with these drugs. In addition studies show that some patients may benefit from biologic therapy early in the disease course. However biologics are very expensive compared to conventional treatment. From a social-economic view the additional costs of new interventions should be weighted against their incremental health benefits compared to standard care.
