Auszug

Biologische krankheitsmodifizierende Basistherapeutika (bDMARDs), insbesondere die TNF-α-Inhibitoren, stellen einen wesentlichen Durchbruch in den Behandlungsoptionen der rheumatoiden Arthritis und anderer rheumatischer Systemerkrankungen dar, wobei allerdings verschiedene Infektionen zu den häufigsten Komplikationen dieser erfolgreichen Therapie zählen [1]. Unter den Infektionskomplikationen nimmt die Reaktivierung einer latenten Tuberkuloseinfektion (LTBI) einen besonderen Stellenwert ein, da das Risiko für diese Komplikation durch ein adäquates Screening vor Beginn einer bDMARD-Therapie und durch den Einsatz einer medikamentösen Prophylaxe deutlich reduziert werden kann. Somit ist die Notwendigkeit eines LTBI-Screenings bei Patienten vor einer Therapie mit TNF-α-Inhibitoren allgemein akzeptiert. Allerdings wurde in der letzten Zeit aufgrund neuerer Studien wiederholt über die unterschiedlichen zur Verfügung stehenden diagnostischen Testverfahren und deren Stellenwert zur Detektion einer latenten Tuberkulose diskutiert. …
