В результате подробного рассмотрения современных данных группой экспертов были предложены 22 рекомендации и 2 дополнения для гигантоклеточного артериита (ГКА), а также 20 рекомендаций и 1 дополнение для артериита Такаясу (АТ), на основании которых представлены алгоритмы лечения пациентов с данными заболеваниями. Зафиксировано расширение значения генно-инженерной биологической терапии, в первую очередь тоцилизумаба при ГКА и ингибиторов фактора некроза опухоли альфа при АТ. Новые рекомендации не должны рассматриваться как окончательные стандарты, но призваны стать основанием для выбора персонифицированной стратегии лечения больных с васкулитами крупных сосудов и послужить отправной точкой для дальнейших исследований.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The main statements of the recommendations of the American College of Rheumatology and the Vasculitis Foundation on the treatment of patients with systemic vasculitis of large vessels, published in August 2021, are discussed. As a result of a detailed review of current data, a group of experts proposed 22 recommendations and 2 ungraded position statements for giant cell arteritis (GCA), as well as 20 recommendations and 1 ungraded position statement for Takayasu arteritis (AT), on the basis of which algorithms for the treatment of patients with these diseases are presented. An expansion of the value of genetically engineered biological therapy, primarily tocilizumab in GCA and tumour necrosis factor alpha inhibitors in AT, has been recorded. The new recommendations should not be considered as final standards, but are intended to become the basis for choosing a personalized treatment strategy for patients with large vessels vasculitis and serve as a starting point for further research.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>системный васкулит крупных сосудов</kwd><kwd>гигантоклеточный артериит</kwd><kwd>артериит Такаясу</kwd><kwd>лечение</kwd><kwd>биологическая терапия</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>large vessel vasculitis</kwd><kwd>giant cell arteritis</kwd><kwd>Takayasu arteritis</kwd><kwd>tocilizumab</kwd><kwd>tumour necrosis factor α inhibitors</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><funding-statement xml:lang="ru">Исследование не имело спонсорской поддержки</funding-statement></funding-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Maz M, Chung SA, Abril A, Langford CA, Gorelik M, Guyatt G, et al. 2021 American College of Rheumatology/Vasculitis Foundation guideline for the management of giant cell arteritis and Takayasu arteritis.
