Major cost savings associated with biologic dose reduction in patients with inflammatory arthritis.
The purpose of this study was to explore whether patients with Inflammatory Arthritis (IA) (Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) or Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS)) would remain in remission following a reduction in biologic dosing frequency and to calculate the cost savings associated with dose reduction. This prospective non-blinded non-randomised study commenced in 2010. Patients...

متن کاملBiologic Treatment in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common, chronic, inflammatory disease. It affects around 1% of the adult population in all age groups, although the incidence peaks during the fifth decade of life. The aetiology of RA is unknown, but it is considered to be autoimmune in nature. Inflammation in the synovial tissues of the joints is the hallmark of RA, causing pain, stiffness, loss of function and ...
متن کاملBiologic therapy of psoriatic arthritis.
Psoriatic arthritis is now recognized as a potentially serious and disabling disease. Traditional therapies have not been very effective in controlling signs and symptoms or preventing progression of damage. Based on the pathogenesis of the disease new therapies have been introduced, particularly anti-TNF agents and anti-T cell agents. Several of those have shown excellent responses in clinical...
