要約 目的:Behçet病の難治性網膜ぶどう膜炎に対するインフリキシマブ投与の結果の報告。対象と方法:加療中のBehçet病患者23名を対象とした。男性21例,女性2例で,年齢は17~69歳(平均38歳)である。静注によるインフリキシマブの投与期間は5~50か月(平均26か月)で,投与開始前後の視力,副作用,併用薬を検索した。結果:6か月あたりの眼発作回数は,投与前2.3±1.4回,投与開始後0.4±0.4回で,有意に減少した(p<0.05)。併用薬を継続した7例と,併用薬なしの13例は,両者ともインフリキシマブ投与により眼発作が有意に減少した(p<0.05)。視力は43眼中19眼(44%)で改善し,24眼(56%)で不変であり,悪化はなかった。重篤な副作用はなかった。結論:インフリキシマブの全身投与で,Behçet病の眼発作が顕著に減少した。
Abstract. Purpose:To report the outcome of treatment with infliximab for refractory uveoretinitis. Cases and Method:This retrospective study was made on 23 patients with Behçet disease. The series comprised 21 males and 2 females. The age ranged from 17 to 69 years,average 38 years. Infliximab was given intravenously for 5 to 50 months,average 26 months. Patients were evaluated for visual acuity,side effects and concomitant medications. Results:Ocular attacks per 6 months averaged 2.3±1.4 before and 0.4±0.4 after start of infliximab. The difference was significant(p<0.05). Frequency of ocular attacks similarly decreased in 7 cases with concomitant medication and 13 cases without. Visual acuity during remission improved in 19 out of 43 eyes(44%),and remained unchanged in the other 24 eyes(56%). There was no serious side effect throughout. Conclusion:Systemic treatment with infliximab was followed by marked decrease in ocular attacks in Behçet disease.
