Abstract | Purpose of review: The pathogenesis of systemic sclerosis (SSc) has been linked to dysfunctional B cells as demonstrated in previous research. This review aims to show the evidence and ongoing clinical trials of B cell-targeted therapy and overview the various aspects of B cell involvement in SSc. Recent findings: We provide an overview of the current understanding and therapeutic strategies targeting B cells in SSc patients. Several molecular targets of B cells have been identified for treating SSc, including CD20, CD19, B-cell activating factor (BAFF), and proteasome. Summary: Many clinical trials have demonstrated that B cells play a critical role in the pathogenesis of SSc and may be a potential therapeutic target to improve disease symptoms. Although large-scale clinical studies are needed, various B cell-targeted therapies have the potential to address the unmet needs of SSc patients. |
