Summary

The objective of a multicenter prospective observational study is to compare effectiveness and safety of biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs and small molecular inhibitors in patients with moderately to severely active rheumatoid arthritis patients who have had an inadequate response or intolerace to methotrexate.

Description

This study is a multicenter prospective observational study to show non-inferiority of clinical efficacy for small molecular inhibitors after 48 week of treatment to biologic disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (bDMARDs) in patients having moderately to severely active RA and who have been intolerant to conventional synthetic disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (csDMARDs) including methotrexate.

Primary end point is a percentage of participants of achieving low disease activity according to Disease Activity Score in 28 joints-Erythrocyte Sedientation Rate (DAS28-ESR) at weeks 24. A total of 506 RA patients will be included, and allocated in ratio of 1:1 to bDMARD group and small molecule inhibitor group. Group allocation is determined by shared-decision making, so that the number of participants could be re-assessed according to recruitment status of participatns.
