Riesgo Comparativo de Tromboembolismo Venoso con Tofacitinib versus con Inhibidor de Factor de Necrosis Tumoral: Un Estudio de Cohorte de Pacientes con Artritis Reumatoide
Desai RJ, et al. Arthritis Rheumatol. 2019 June;71(6):892-900.
Occurrences of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in 50, 865 RA patients initiating Tofacitinib (TOF) or a TNF inhibitor (TNFi) was infrequent. No significant risk of VTE for TOF versus TNFi was observed.Safety concerns of JAK inhibitor BARI include potentially increased risk of VTE at the higher 4 mg dose. It’s unclear if this is attributable to JAK-inhibition and extends to TOF. This study compared the risk of VTE with TOF, versus TNFi in real-world settings with RA patients.RA patients initiating T...
