Factors Associated with the Retention of Secukinumab in Patients with Axial Spondyloarthritis in Real-world Practice: Results from a Retrospective Study (FORSYA)
RMD Open 2023;9:e002802 doi: 10.1136/rmdopen-2022-002802
This study reported the overall retention of secukinumab in daily practice in the period following its approval in France was approximately 59% at 1 year in axSpA patients. The aim of this study was to determine whether OSI were predictive of secukinumab retention at 1 year.
Prior exposure to b/tsDMARDS, OSI and IBD was identified as predictive factors of secukinumab discontinuation. It might be of interest to replicate this study by evaluating this retention rate remotely from the launch of the molecule.
