The most common treatment for GCA\u00a0is\u00a0a high-dose\u00a0corticosteroid, typically started immediately after diagnosis to reduce the risk of blindness and tapered off over the next 12-24 months. In 2017, the first targeted treatment for GCA, Roche\u2019s Actemra, was approved. Other key autoimmune drugs, including Novartis\u2019s Cosentyx, AbbVie\u2019s Rinvoq, and Regeneron \/ Sanofi\u2019s Kevzara, are progressing to late-phase trials for GCA, suggesting increasing interest in this potentially lucrative and untapped market. As such, understanding how Actemra is currently used in GCA patients will be crucial for incoming competition.<\/p>\n<p>QUESTIONS ANSWERED<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>What patient shares do key therapies and brands garner by line of therapy in newly diagnosed GCA patients?
