Article Synopsis
- This study analyzed the safety of biological therapies in children with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) through a retrospective observational cohort approach.
- It involved 185 pediatric patients treated with drugs like infliximab and adalimumab for at least two months, examining adverse events (AEs) related to these therapies.
- Results indicated that while 49% of patients experienced AEs, most were mild to moderate, with only a small percentage leading to treatment discontinuation, confirming a generally positive safety profile for biologic treatments.
