“…In general, the data from our study on treatment decisions demonstrate the common use of off-label therapies in SAIDs and emphasize the need for management guidelines. Lately, several initiatives started to implement practical management guidelines for specific SAIDs such as CAPS, FMF, HIDS, TRAPS and SJIA/AOSD,34, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45 and further efforts to optimize existing guidelines are currently ongoing. Nonetheless, the rarity of the diseases and limited data from large scale, randomized controlled trials remain major challenges within this task 34, 46…”
