Abstract
The results of this small study suggest that blockage of IL-1β using gevokizumab may be beneficial in treating active, noninfectious anterior scleritis and that gevokizumab is well tolerated. Larger randomized trials are warranted to assess the true efficacy of gevokizumab in the treatment of non-necrotizing anterior scleritis.
