El uso de etanercept en niños y adolescentes con psoriasis grave ha sido recientemente aprobado por la Agencia Europea del Medicamento, por lo que se convierte en el primer y único fármaco biológico autorizado para su utilización en la población infantil.

Abstract

We present the case of a 10-year old male child with severe incapacitating psoriasis resistant to multiple treatments. He was treated with etanercept successfully in our Dermatology Department.

The use of etanercept in children and adolescents with severe psoriasis has been recently approved by the European Medicines Agency. Thus, it has become the first and only biological drug authorized for its use in the child population.
