Abstract:
Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) is an immune-mediated demyelinating peripheral neuropathy characterized by symmetric limb weakness, sensory disturbances, and diminished tendon reflexes. Its pathogenesis involves the interplay of T cells, B cells, and the complement system. Current first-line therapies including intravenous immunoglobulin, corticosteroids and plasma exchange exhibit limited efficacy, with approximately 30% of patients experiencing relapse or poor treatment response. In recent years, novel immunomodulatory therapies including anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies, neonatal Fc receptor inhibitors, complement inhibitors, Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors, autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, and chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy, have emerged as promising options for refractory CIDP, ushering in a new era of immunomodulatory treatment.
