What is novel in the clinical management of pemphigus vulgaris?

Introduction Pemphigus, an uncommon autoimmune blistering disorder affecting the skin and mucous membranes, currently with mortality primarily attributed to adverse reactions resulting from treatment protocols. Additionally, the existing treatments exhibit a notable recurrence rate. The high incidence of relapse and the considerable adverse effects associated with treatment underscore the imperative to explore safer and more effective therapeutic approaches. Numerous potential therapeutic targets have demonstrated promising outcomes in trials or preliminary research stages. These encompass anti-CD-20 agents, anti-CD-25 agents, TNF-α inhibition, FAS Ligand Inhibition, FcRn inhibition, BAFF inhibition, Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibition, CAAR T Cells, JAK inhibition, mTOR inhibition, abatacept, IL-4 inhibition, IL-17 inhibition, IL-6 inhibition, polyclonal Regulatory T Cells, and autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
