  • Este é o primeiro e único medicamento aprovado para tratamento de espondiloartrite axial não radiográfica severa em adultos
  • A espondiloartrite axial não radiográfica apresenta os sinais e sintomas da espondilite anquilosante, porém sem evidência em exames de raios-X

SÃO PAULO, 1 de julho de 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- A  agência regulatória brasileira ANVISA aprovou HUMIRA® (adalimumabe) para o tratamento de adultos com espondiloartrite axial não radiográfica grave sem evidência de dano estrutural em exame de raios-X. HUMIRA é a primeira e única medicação disponível no Brasil para pacientes com espondiloartrite axial não radiográfica.

As espondiloartrites axiais, categoria que inclui a espondilite anquilosante e a espondiloartrite axial não radiográfica, podem ser doenças debilitantes que se manifestam inicialmente por dor crônica e rigidez nas costas e podem vir também acompanhadas por artrite e manifestações extra-articulares nos dedos, olhos, pele, tendões e trato gastrointestinal. As pessoas com espondiloartrite axial não radiográfica podem ter sinais e sintomas semelhantes aos causados pela espondilite anquilosante, como dor crônica das costas e perda funcional, mas não há evidência do dano estrutural em exames de raios-X.

A espondiloartrite axial não radiográfica é mais comum em pessoas jovens, em seus anos mais produtivos, e pode ficar sem ser diagnosticada corretamente por anos.

"Esta aprovação é um passo importante no controle da doença", afirmou Luís Nudelman, Diretor Médico da AbbVie para América Latina.  "Em vários estudos clínicos, HUMIRA demonstrou um balanço positivo de benefício e risco em espondiloartrite axial não radiográfica e esta aprovação pode ajudar os profissionais de saúde a tratar mais pacientes que sofrem com a doença".

Sobre espondiloartrites - As espondiloartrites formam um grupo de doenças com características clínicas, radiográficas e genéticas comuns. As espondiloartrites podem ser classificadas conforme a região do corpo mais afetada - axial ou periférica. Para o diagnóstico da forma axial, a Sociedade Internacional de Espondiloartrites recomenda o uso de ressonância magnética, além do tradicional exame de raios-X, para visualização da sacroilite (inflamação da junta sacrilíaca, que conecta a região lombar e a pélvis), que é uma das características da espondiloartrite axial. Somente o médico pode diagnosticar corretamente a doença e indicar o tratamento adequado para cada paciente.

Sobre Adalimumabe (HUMIRA)

Adalimumabe, anticorpo monoclonal totalmente humano, é um medicamento biológico, sob prescrição, aprovado globalmente para 11 indicações, entre adultos e crianças, e tem sido usado para tratar mais de 843.000 pacientes em todo mundo. Seu perfil de segurança e eficácia foi provado por mais de 12 anos de estudos publicados e mais de 71 estudos clínicos globais, compreendendo mais de 26.000 pacientes. No Brasil, é aprovado para oito indicações: artrite reumatoide moderada a grave, artrite psoriásica, espondilite anquilosante, espondiloartrite axial não radiográfica, psoríase em placas moderada a grave, doença de Crohn moderada a grave, colite ulcerativa moderada a grave e artrite idiopática juvenil moderada a grave.
