Abstract
This review has provided some evidence of a differing response to individual biologics according to JIA subtype and highlighted the under-representation of certain subtypes in published studies. Comparison of efficacy of individual biologics within subtypes is limited as published studies use variable methodology and head-to-head trials of biologics are lacking. Future trial design should consider differences in treatment response across and within ILAR subtypes to enable clinicians to make more relevant treatment decisions and achieve better patient outcomes.
