JOIN T-AIC

Development of new therapeutic approaches for the treatment of inflammatory mono-arthritis combining “novel” anti-TNF-α and viscoelastic scaffold Mono-arthritis is generally treated by intra-articular injections of corticosteroids or of hyaluronic acid. However, due to their limited efficacy, or due to their toxicity, injectable corticosteroids are only administered a few times, which...
