В рекомендациях EULAR предусматривается возможность уменьшения дозы и даже отмены генно-инженерных биологических препаратов (ГИБП), особенно при проведении сочетанной терапии ГИБП и базисными противовоспалительными препаратами (БПВП). Однако стратегия такого изменения терапии еще недостаточно четко определена. В данном обзоре мы хотели бы затронуть вопрос, касающийся не раннего, а развернутого РА у больных с необратимыми изменениями опорно-двигательного аппарата, длительно получающих БПВП и/или ГИБП. При достижении ремиссии решить вопрос о возможности снижения дозы или отмены препарата в таких случаях бывает сложнее, чем при раннем РА.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>Guidelines for the management of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) envisage that its therapy should be intensified if it is insufficiently effective; at the same time, reduction of its intensity of treatment may be discussed when the set goal has been successfully achieved. The EULAR guidelines allow for dose reduction and even discontinuation of biological agents (BAs), especially when performing combination therapy with BAs and disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs). However, the strategy for this therapy change has not yet been sufficiently clearly defined. In this review, we would like to raise an issue regarding frank rather than early RA in patients with irreversible changes of the locomotor apparatus, who have received DMARDs and/or BAs for a long time. When remission is achieved, it is more difficult to reduce the dose of the drug or discontinue the latter in these cases than in early RA.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>ревматоидный артрит</kwd><kwd>генно-инженерные биологические препараты</kwd><kwd>базисные противовоспалительные препараты</kwd><kwd>лечение</kwd><kwd>ремиссия</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>rheumatoid arthritis</kwd><kwd>biological agents</kwd><kwd>disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs</kwd><kwd>treatment</kwd><kwd>remission</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Насонов ЕЛ.
