Tofacitinib safety and effectiveness in Canadian patients with rheumatoid arthritis by cardiovascular risk enrichment: Subanalysis of the CANTORAL study
Rheumatol Ther 2024;11:1629–48 doi: 10.1007/s40744-024-00719-5
Haraoui et al. conducted a subgroup analysis of the CANTORAL study, showing that tofacitinib effectiveness was similar in patients with or without CV risk enrichment. However, AEs, particularly in older patients (≥65 years), were more frequent in the CV+ cohort. These findings highlight the need for tailored CV risk management when treating RA with tofacitinib.
