چکیده
L e principali artriti croniche ad eziopatogene-si immunoflogistica, nelle quali trovano ap-plicazione i farmaci " biologici " (v. oltre) sono la reumatoide e le sieronegative: artrite psoriasica, spondilite anchilosante, artriti reattive ed artriti " enteropatiche " (1-7). L'artrite reumatoide (AR) è una malattia cronica progressiva delle articolazioni associata a signifi-cativa morbilità, deformità e riduzione della qua-lità di vita. La prevalenza nella popolazione, a li-vello mondiale, è compresa tra 0,3 ed 1%. Pur in-teressando in modo elettivo le articolazioni, l'AR è una malattia sistemica che può condurre a seve-ra disabilità ed a complicanze talora fatali. La te-rapia farmacologica tradizionale si basa su varie combinazioni di farmaci definiti sintomatici, come gli anti-infiammatori non-steroidei (FANS), gli analgesici ed i corticosteroidi e quelli " di fondo " chiamati correntemente DMARDs (disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs). Tuttavia la maggio-ranza dei pazienti non risponde in modo soddisfa-cente a questa strategia terapeutica, in particolare per l'inefficacia o la progressiva perdita di effica-cia dei DMARDs.

Use of data from multiple registries in studying biologic discontinuation: challenges and opportunities.
Many studies have been conducted concerning discontinuation of biologic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARD), but mainly in trial settings which result in limited generalisability. Registry studies can complement the current literature of biologic DMARD discontinuation by providing more generalisable information. However, it may be necessary to combine registries to increase power and...
متن کاملA Defined Benefit Pension Fund ALM Model through Multistage Stochastic Programming
We consider an asset-liability management (ALM) problem for a defined benefit pension fund (PF). The PF manager is assumed to follow a maximal fund valuation problem facing an extended set of risk factors: due to the longevity of the PF members, the inflation affecting salaries in real terms and future incomes, interest rates and market factors affecting jointly the PF liability and asset p...
متن کاملBiosimilars: A Multidisciplinary Perspective.
A biosimilar is an officially regulated and approved copy of an originator biologic therapy. Improved affordability and consequent wider patient access compared with biologics are a significant appeal of biosimilars. Regulatory guidelines for biosimilar development and approval are rigorous and undergoing constant refinement. The process of licensing approval for all biosimilars requires demons...
متن کاملA Model for Runway Landing Flow and Capacity with Risk and Cost Benefit Factors
As the demand for the civil aviation has been growing for decades and the system becoming increasingly complex, the use of systems engineering and operations research tools have shown to be of further use in managing this system. In this study, we apply such tools in managing landing operations on runways (as the bottleneck and highly valuable resources of air transportation networks) to handle...
متن کاملReviewing the evidence for biosimilars: key insights, lessons learned and future horizons
Biologic therapies have become central to the long-term management of many chronic diseases, including inflammatory rheumatic diseases. Over recent years, the development and licensing pathways for biosimilars have become more standardized, and several biosimilars have been made available for patients with inflammatory rheumatic diseases, such as RA. Pre-licensing requirements for biosimilars m...
