“…Combination of steroidal and non-steroidal immunosuppression is required to treat initialonset acute VKH disease in order to prevent chronic evolution Because numerous studies have shown that corticosteroid monotherapy is insufficient to prevent chronic evolution, combinations of corticosteroids with firstline non-steroidal immunosuppressive therapies such as cyclosporine, azathioprine, mycophenolate mofetil, anti-tumor necrosis factor-a agents, or others have been proposed to achieve better control of the uveitis, facilitate earlier tapering of corticosteroids, and avoid chronic evolution in acute initial-onset disease [17,[24][25][26][27]. First-line immunosuppression is defined here as the initiation of immunosuppression at the onset of disease concomitant to corticosteroids and not thereafter, as is the case in most studies speaking of first-line immunosuppressive therapy.…”
