Rheumatology (Oxford) 2023 doi 10.1093/rheumatology/kead531 Epub ahead of print

Popa, et al. compared the incidence of CV events between JAKi and bDMARD therapies in a large RA population, and found no significant difference in CV risk between the treatment groups. They also compared CV risk between baricitinib-treated and tofacitinib-treated patients and found no significant difference.

This retrospective inception cohort study investigated RA patients starting a new bDMARD or JAKi prescription between 01 August 2018 and 31 January 2022 from IQVIA’s Dutch Real-World Data Longitudinal Prescription database.
