Zusammenfassung

Die Behandlung der Patienten mit chronisch entziindlichen Darmerkrankungen (CED),die einen steroidabhangigen oder steroidrefraktaren chronisch aktiven Verlauf zeigen, stellen den behandelnden Arzt sowohl hin-sichtlich der Induktion einer Remission als auch hinsichtlich des Remis-sionserhaltes vor anspruchsvolle Therapieentscheidungen. In den letzten Jahren mehren sich therapeutische Angebote, wobei sich der in der Tumortherapie bekannte Antimetabolit Methotrexat (MTX) in einer im Vergleich zu onkologischen Dosen niedrigen Anwendungsdosis in der Behandlung des Morbus Crohn (MC) einen Platz zu sichern scheint. In dieser Zusammenfassung sollen neben der Pharmakologie von MTX die wichtigen Studien zur Methotrexattherapie bei CED dargestellt werden; diese wurden initiiert als Antwort auf den erfolgreichen Einsatz von MTX bei chronisch entziindlichen Erkrankungen wie rheumatoider Arthritis und schwerem Verlauf einer Psoriasis.
