Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis is an autoimmune disorder, which means that the body mistakenly identifies some of its own cells and tissues as foreign. The immune system, which normally helps to fight off harmful, foreign substances such as bacteria or viruses, begins to attack healthy cells and tissues.
Stem Cell Transplant Services
The service is participating in a European study evaluating the clinical effectiveness of stem cell transplant services for this disease as a treatment option when other more conventional treatment options have been exhausted. The increased use of monoclonal antibody therapies as a treatment for juvenile idiopathic arthritis has resulted in fewer patients being referred for stem cell transplantation.
