Owing to their specificity, immunomodulatory biologics generally have better safety profiles than small-molecule drugs. However, adverse effects such as an increased risk of infections or cytokine release syndrome are of concern. Here, Park and colleagues discuss the current strategies used to predict and mitigate these adverse effects and consider how they can be used to inform the development of safer immunomodulatory biologics.
