The study focuses on SB5, an adalimumab biosimilar approved in Europe in 2017, and aims to gather real-world data on its usage and effectiveness in patients with various immune-mediated inflammatory diseases (IMIDs).
Researchers analyzed clinical and healthcare claims data from the French national healthcare database to assess patient persistence on SB5 after 12 months.
Among 911 patients treated with SB5, notable remission rates were observed at the 12-month mark, particularly in naïve patients, across various conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and Crohn's disease, with all showing significant improvement from baseline.
