摘要
We conducted a retrospective study to assess the effects of infliximab, a chimeric monoclonal antibody, on hearing in patients with autoimmune sensorineural hearing loss who had previously not responded to steroid therapy and/or treatment with other immunosuppressive drugs such as methotrexate and cyclophosphamide. We reviewed the records of 8 such patients. Our objective measures of outcome were pure-tone averages at 500, 1,000, 2,000, and 3,000 Hz and speech discrimination scores. At the completion of treatment, no patient exhibited a positive response to infliximab therapy by objective measurements, and only 1 patient (12.5%) reported subjective improvement.
