Article Synopsis
- This study evaluated the effectiveness and persistence of golimumab (GLM) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis, axial spondyloarthritis, and psoriatic arthritis who previously used other TNF inhibitors compared to those who haven't.
- A total of 192 patients were included, with follow-up results indicating that the majority discontinued GLM due to inefficacy, and the median survival for GLM treatment was similar for both experienced and naive patients.
- The study concluded that prior TNFi experience did not significantly affect the survival or persistence of GLM treatment, but having public health insurance was linked to higher discontinuation rates.
