Overview / Abstract: |
Are you effectively employing treat-to-target strategies into your daily practice? Data from the Corrona RA registry tell a different story: a large number of patients with RA still had moderate or high levels of disease activity after 6 and 12 months of csDMARD and/or bDMARD therapy, with no acceleration of treatment. Dr. Allan Gibofsky, Co-Director, Clinic for Inflammatory Arthritis and Biologic Therapy at the Hospital for Special Surgery and New York Presbyterian Hospital in New York explains how to select the right target for each patient, how often to assess whether the target has been achieved, and how to optimize selection of each subsequent therapy, including when to introduce JAK inhibitors. |
