Drenth, Alessio Gerussi, María-Carlota Londoño, Ye Htun Oo, Ida Schregel, Marcial Sebode, Richard Taubert

“…Although standard treatment with corticosteroids and thiopurines improves the life expectancy of patients with AIH, remission rates and tolerability are generally overestimated and the development of alternative first-line and salvage therapies has been disappointingly slow compared to in rheumatological diseases or inflammatory bowel disease. Other gaps include the lack of disease-specific diagnostic markers for AIH. …”
