Recombinant proteins dominate the growing list of the more than 200 approved biotherapeutic agents with targeted antibodies, fusion proteins and receptors; cytokines; hormones; enzymes; proteins involved in blood-clotting, homeostasis and thrombosis; vaccines; botulinum neurotoxins; and, more recently, biosimilar preparations, comprising the majority of approved biologics. Written with clinicians, other health care professionals, and researchers in mind, Safety of Biologics Therapy examines, in a single volume, the full range of issues surrounding the safety of approved biologic therapies. A good understanding of the risks and safety issues of modern biologics therapy is increasingly being demanded of all those connected with their development, handling, prescribing, administration and subsequent patient management. In addition to being of great value to clinicians in all branches of medicine, and to nurses, pharmacists and researchers, this book will prove invaluable for students taking undergraduate and graduate courses in the above disciplines and in the biomedical sciences. 606 $aCardiology 606 $aEndocrinology 606 $aGastroenterology 606 $aOncology 606 $aCardiology 606 $aEndocrinology 606 $aGastroenterology 606 $aOncology 615 0$aCardiology. 615 0$aEndocrinology. 615 0$aGastroenterology. 615 0$aOncology. 615 14$aCardiology. 615 24$aEndocrinology. 615 24$aGastroenterology. 615 24$aOncology. 676 $a616.12 700 $aBaldo$b Brian A$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0976587 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910254531803321 996 $aSafety of Biologics Therapy$92544794 997 $aUNINA
