Celiac Disease (CeD) is a chronic intestinal disease which occurs in 0.7-1.4% of the global population. Since the discovery of gluten as its disease-inducing antigen, CeD patients are treated with a gluten-free diet which is effective but has limitations for certain groups of patients. Accordingly, over the past few years, there is a growing interest in alternative treatment options. This review summarizes emerging pharmacological approaches, including tolerance induction strategies, tissue transglutaminase inhibition, gluten degradation, and inhibition of interleukin (IL)-15.
