Abstract
Soluble tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor fusion protein (p75) (Enbrel) is a reversible inhibitor of the biologic effects of TNF. Enbrel has been shown in placebo-controlled trials to significantly improve the signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis. Clinical trials are now in progress to assess the safety and efficacy of Enbrel in combination with methotrexate in refractory rheumatoid arthritis along with trials to compare Enbrel to methotrexate in patients with early rheumatoid arthritis.Entities:
