Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events (MACE) in Rheumatoid Arthritis Patient With Moderate to Severe Disease Activity Treated With Tofacitinib and Statins vs TNF Inhibitors: TOFSTAT CLINICAL TRIAL
The rationale of our study is to observe the incidence of MACE in RA patients treated with tofacitinib along with statins with one or more cardiovascular disease risks. PRIMARY OBJECTIVE * To determine the incidence of MACE in Rheumatoid Arthritis patients with moderate to high disease activity and with one or more cardiovascular disease risks, which are non-responsive to standard conventional DMARDs (cDMARDs) treatment and are prescribed Tofacitinib 5 mg twice daily along with statin 20 mg daily versus TNF Inhibitors. * The study aim to compare MACE in RA patients treated with tofacitinib and statin versus TNF inhibitors.
