    AbstractMany new drugs, sometimes promising, are now available to treat systemic auto-immune diseases. Treatment strategies and objectives are different according to each auto-immune disease. Major advances have been obtained in vasculitides treatments. In systemic lupus erythematosus, many drugs have been evaluated, targeting one of the multiple pathogenic mechanisms of the disease. Unfortunately, new drugs remain rare on the market and no major advances have been obtained. In systemic sclerosis, symptomatic treatments improved outcomes but effective drugs targeting all disease manifestations are missing. Autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation could be one of the future innovative treatment of systemic sclerosis despite the occurrence of adverse events.© 2020 l'Académie nationale de médecine.
