Long-term efficacy of adalimumab in Paediatric Crohn's disease patients naive to other anti-TNF therapies

Introduction Adalimumab is a fully humanized anti TNF a antibody that has showed its efficacy in Crohn's disease (CD) adult patients Its less immunogenic composition seems to be an advantage compared to previous anti TNF alpha, mainly infliximab Good response to adalimumab has been reported in...
