Rheumatoid Arthritis | Treatment Algorithms | Claims Data Analysis | US | 2022

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) treatment is typically initiated with cost-effective conventional DMARDs (cDMARDs), such as methotrexate or hydroxychloroquine. For patients who fail cDMARD treatment or exhibit an inadequate response, the U.S. market is crowded with efficacious biologics and targeted oral therapies, including blockbuster TNF-alpha inhibitors (e.g., AbbVie’s Humira, Amgen’s Enbrel) as well as non-TNF-alpha inhibitors, such as BMS’s Orencia and Roche’s Actemra, and the oral JAK inhibitors, Xeljanz (Pfizer), Olumiant (Eli Lilly), and Rinvoq (AbbVie). Indeed, the FDA approval of Rinvoq had led to increased competition within the JAK class and among the non-TNF biologics. However, the recent extension of the FDA’s safety warnings to the entire JAK class will likely impact the overall use of these drugs, leading to increased use of other targeted agents.
