Heterogeneity Within a “difficult to Treat” Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients Cohort: 36% May Have a More Benign Course and Have Distinct Characteristics at bDMARD or tsDMARD Initiation
Background/Purpose: Early detection of difficult to treat (D2T) RA patients as well as better characterization of their long-term course represent unresolved issues. Herein we aimed…Abstract Number: 0264 • ACR Convergence 2022
Reasons for Early Discontinuation of Targeted Synthetic (ts) or Biologic (b) DMARDs; Chart Review of 20,343 Drug Episodes Given to Patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: The development, exacerbation, or unimprovement of clinical conditions during DMARD treatment may lead patients to abandon treatment before the necessary time has elapsed for…Abstract Number: 1436 • ACR Convergence 2022
Predictors at Diagnosis for Start of Biologic Disease Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drugs in Patients with Early Rheumatoid Arthritis
Background/Purpose: With increasing use of biologic disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (bDMARDs) and targeted synthetic DMARDs (tsDMARDs) for the management of rheumatoid arthritis (RA), outcomes have…Abstract Number: 1606 • ACR Convergence 2022
An Expanded Anti-citrullinated Protein Antibody Profile Derived Using Unsupervised Machine Learning Predicts Treatment Responses to Biologic Therapies in Rheumatoid Arthritis
