The most common treatment for GCA is high doses of corticosteroids, typically started immediately after diagnosis to reduce the risk of blindness and tapered over the next 12-24 months. In 2017, the first targeted treatment for GCA, Roche\u2019s Actemra, was approved. Other key autoimmune drugs, including Bristol Myers Squibb\u2019s Orencia, AbbVie\u2019s Rinvoq, and Sobi\u2019s Kineret, are in late-phase trials for GCA, suggesting increasing interest in this potentially lucrative and untapped market.<\/p>\n<p><strong>QUESTIONS ANSWERED<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>What patient shares do key therapies and brands garner by line of therapy in newly diagnosed GCA patients?
