Abstract
BACKGROUND Advances in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) treatment, highlighted by biological disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (bDMARDs) and targeted synthetic DMARDs (tsDMARDs), have altered the paradigm of RA treatment in the last decade. Therefore, real-world clinical evidence is needed to understand how treatment strategies and outcomes have changed. METHODS Using an observational cohort of RA from 2012 to 2021, we collected cross-sectional data of RA patients annually to analyze a trend in RA management. For patients who initiated b/tsDMRDs, we evaluated treatment outcomes between b/tsDMARDs. Mixed-effect models were applied to examine the statistical implications of changes over time in treatment outcomes with a background adjustment. RESULTS We analyzed annual cross-sectional data from 5070 patients and longitudinal data from 1816 patients in whom b/tsDMARDs were initiated between 2012 and 2021. b/tsDMARD use increased, whereas glucocorticoid use decreased from 2012 to 2021. Disease activity and functional disability measures improved over time. The percentage of tsDMARD prescriptions considerably increased. All b/tsDMARDs showed clinical improvements in disease activity and functional disability. Statistically, TNFi showed better short-term improvements in b/tsDMARD-naïve patients, while IL6Ri demonstrated significant long-term benefits. IL6Ri had better retention rates in switched patients. After adjustment for patient characteristics, the annual change of RA disease activity and functional disability fared significantly better from 2012 to 2021. CONCLUSIONS With the development of new RA therapeutics, overall treatment outcomes advanced in the past decade.

Hirata I, Hanaoka S, Rokutanda R, Funakoshi R, Hayashi H. Shared decision-making practices and patient values in pharmacist outpatient care for rheumatic disease: A multiple correspondence analysis. JOURNAL OF PHARMACY & PHARMACEUTICAL SCIENCES : A PUBLICATION OF THE CANADIAN SOCIETY FOR PHARMACEUTICAL SCIENCES, SOCIETE CANADIENNE DES SCIENCES PHARMACEUTIQUES 2023; 26:11135. [PMID: 36942300 PMCID: PMC9990622 DOI: 10.3389/jpps.2023.11135] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2022] [Accepted: 12/02/2022] [Indexed: 01/22/2023]
Abstract
Purpose: To investigate the value-to-value relationships, relationship between values and patient background, continuation rate of treatment after shared decision-making (SDM), and disease status in order to clarify the values involved in drug therapy decisions for patients with rheumatic disease. Methods: We investigated patient values (efficacy of drug therapy [effectiveness], safety, economics, daily life, and other) and the continuance rate and disease status of treatment after 6 months in 94 patients with rheumatic disease aged ≥18 years who made decisions with pharmacists and physicians in the pharmacy outpatient clinic between September 2019 and April 2021. Multiple correspondence and K-means cluster analyses were performed to show the relationship between values and basic patient information. Results: Among the selected patients, 87% and 47% selected effectiveness for multiple selections and single selection, respectively. Effectiveness was at the center of the graph; three clusters containing other values were placed around it. History of allergy or side effects caused by biologics or Janus kinase inhibitors were in the safety cluster. The non-usage history of biologics or Janus kinase inhibitors was in the economic cluster. Conclusion: Effectiveness was the most important factor for patients with rheumatic disease; the values that patients consider important may shift from effectiveness to other values based on each patient's subjective experience with the treatment and/or the stage of life in which they were treated. It is important to positively link patient values and information about the treatment plan in shared decision-making while establishing rapport with the patient.
