Abstract:
Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is an immune-mediated chronic inflammatory liver disease. At present, standard treatment is effective in most AIH patients, and second- or third-line pharmacotherapy can be selected for patients who have suboptimal response to standard treatment or cannot tolerate the side-effects of the drugs. Novel therapies are undergoing clinical trials with the further exploration of the pathogenesis of AIH. This article reviews the current research advances in pharmacotherapy for AIH.
