Comprendre les réactions d’hypersensibilité aux anticorps monoclonaux

Biologic drugs are complex molecules synthesized by a living organism. Their use is increasingly prevalent across all medical specialties, exposing a growing number of patients to potential adverse reactions. In this review, we discuss the new classification of hypersensitivity reactions, along with the specific characteristics of monoclonal antibodies. We also address the available diagnostic tools and discuss the management of those reactions, including for patients requiring the continuation of these biologic drugs.
