About this trial

Rheumatoid arthritis is a disabling arthritis that affects young women disproportionately. Although the physicians have some excellent treatments, they do not know which treatment is best for which patient. The investigators want to find ways to identify the right drug for the right patient at the right time. This is what personalized medicine is all about.
