Research Outlines Benefits of bDMARDs to Treat Early RA

Michele B. Kaufman, PharmD, BCGP  |  February 10, 2021

Sapart et al. suggest a combination of methotrexate and biologic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs as induction therapy for patients with early RA may lead to long-term remission.

A High HAQ at Baseline in Early RA Is a Bad Sign

Arthritis & Rheumatology  |  January 26, 2021

In this study, Fatima et al. analyzed how well the Health Assessment Questionnaire (HAQ) disability index predicts future all-cause mortality in patients with early RA (i.e., with a symptom duration of less than one year). A total of 1,724 patients with early RA were included. The researchers found that a higher HAQ score and Disease Activity Score at one year were significantly associated with all-cause mortality.

A Closer Look at Antibodies in RA: How Anti-Citrullinated Protein Antibodies, Anti-Modified Protein Autoantibodies & Rheumatoid Factor Activity Overlap

Carina Stanton  |  December 17, 2020

Recent evidence on how anti-citrullinated protein antibodies, anti-modified protein autoantibodies and rheumatoid factor activity overlap in RA demonstrate new ideas for diagnostics and pathophysiology.

Long-Term Safety of Baricitinib for RA

Michele B. Kaufman, PharmD, BCGP  |  December 14, 2020

Baricitinib appears to be a safe long-term treatment for RA patients, according to a recent analysis of patients with drug exposure up to eight years.

Upadacitinib Safety Similar to Other Jakinibs for RA

Lisa Rapaport  |  November 16, 2020

(Reuters Health)—A once-daily 15 mg dose of upadacitinib for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) has similar rates of malignancies, serious infections, major adverse cardiovascular events, and venous thromboembolic events as other Janus kinase inhibitors (jakinibs), results from phase 3 clinical trials suggest. Researchers examined data on treatment emergent adverse events among patients taking upadacitinib in five randomized…

1 Step Closer: Study Examines Factors That Lead to RA in Hope of Developing Prevention Strategies

Linda Childers  |  November 4, 2020

Research has found blood tests detect elevations of autoantibody isotypes in patients years before they are diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). According to Kevin Deane, MD, PhD, identifying patients during this pre-RA period may be key to preventing or delaying the onset of RA.

Janus Kinase vs. TNF Inhibitors: The Context for Venous Thromboembolism Risk with RA Treatments

Larry Beresford  |  October 7, 2020

An observational study found treatment with tofacitinib resulted in only a slightly higher rate of venous thromboembolism than tumor necrosis factor inhibitors in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

RA Patients Taking Either 15 mg or 30 mg Dose of Upadacitinib Experience Improvement

Arthritis & Rheumatology  |  October 1, 2020

The SELECT-EARLY MTX-controlled trial examined the safety and efficacy of upadacitinib, a potent, reversible jakinib, as monotherapy in patients with moderately to highly active RA and poor prognostic features who are either naive for or have limited exposure to methotrexate.

For RA Patients, Functional Disability May Precede Diagnosis

Mary Beth Nierengarten  |  September 1, 2020

In a study, researchers found rheumatoid arthritis patients experience a persistent burden of functional disability regardless of disease duration, age or gender.

Biologics May Prevent Cardiovascular Events in RA Patients

Arthritis & Rheumatology  |  August 26, 2020

RA patients experience a higher rate of cardiovascular disease (CVD) events than controls. In a new study, Karpouzas et al. determined that current biologic disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug use is associated with reduced long-term CVD risk, protective calcification of noncalcified lesions and a lower likelihood of new plaque formation in patients with early atherosclerosis.
