Проанализированы результаты исследований BeSt, OPTIMA, HIT HARD, ACT-RAY, AVERT, PRESERVE, RETRO, PRIZE, DRESS, HOPEFUL-2, HONOR, данные регистров NinJa и CORRONA, а также опыт, полученный при лечении псориаза, в отношении таких важных в практическом плане вопросов, как: возможность отмены ингибиторов фактора некроза опухоли α и ГИБП с иными механизмами действия, возможность отмены всей противовоспалительной терапии, снижение дозы ГИБП как альтернатива полной отмене или ступень на пути к отмене ГИБП, повторное назначение и «прерывистое лечение» ГИБП, значение глубины подавления воспалительной активности для решения вопроса о возможности отмены ГИБП. На основе полученных к настоящему времени результатов можно заключить, что при РА вероятно успешное снижение дозы, а в некоторых случаях – и полная отмена ГИБП. Такая возможность, по-видимому, связана с глубиной ремиссии. У пациентов с рецидивом активности болезни повторное назначение ГИБП, как правило, приводит к быстрому улучшению. Наиболее оптимистичными выглядят результаты исследований этанерцепта.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The paper considers the very urgent problem of optimization of the management of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients who have achieved remission (or persistent low disease activity) during therapy using biologicals. It analyzes the results of BeSt, OPTIMA, HIT HARD, ACT-RAY, AVERT, PRESERVE, RETRO, PRIZE, DRESS, HOPEFUL-2, and HONOR studies, the data of NinJa and CORRONA registries, and the experience gained in treating psoriasis concerning practically important issues, such as whether tumor necrosis factor-α inhibitors and biologicals with other mechanisms of action can be discontinued; whether the whole anti-inflammatory therapy can be stopped; whether the dose of biologicals can be reduced as an alternative to complete discontinuation or as a step to discontinue biologicals; whether repeated or intermittent therapy with biologicals can be used; what value of the depth of suppression of inflammatory activity is in solving the problem of whether biologicals can be discontinued. The current results may lead to the conclusion that in RA the dose of biologicals may be successfully reduced and, in some cases, the latter may be completely discontinued. This possibility seems to be associated with the depth of remission. Repeated use of biologicals generally gives rise to prompt improvement in patients with a recurrent disease-activity rebound. The results of a trial of etanercept are most optimistic. Re-treatment with biologicals generally provides fast improvement in patients with a relapse of disease activity. The results of the trials of etanercept are most optimistic.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>ремиссия</kwd><kwd>генно-инженерные биологические препараты</kwd><kwd>ревматоидный артрит</kwd><kwd>псориаз</kwd><kwd>снижение дозы</kwd><kwd>отмена терапии</kwd><kwd>ингибиторы фактора некроза опухоли α</kwd><kwd>этанерцепт</kwd><kwd>абатацепт</kwd><kwd>адалимумаб</kwd><kwd>тоцилизумаб</kwd><kwd>инфликсимаб</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>remission</kwd><kwd>biologicals</kwd><kwd>rheumatoid arthritis</kwd><kwd>psoriasis</kwd><kwd>dose reduction</kwd><kwd>therapy discontinuation</kwd><kwd>tumor necrosis factor-α inhibitors</kwd><kwd>etanercept</kwd><kwd>abatacept</kwd><kwd>adalimumab</kwd><kwd>tocilizumab</kwd><kwd>infliximab</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Smolen J, Aletaha D, Bijlsma JW, et al.
