Abstract:
OBJECTIVES:To compare the patterns of American College of Rheumatology (ACR) response between tocilizumab and other biologic agents in patients with rheumatoid arthritis who have inadequate response to disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARD-IR).
METHODS:Systematic literature review identified similarly designed double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trials over an 18-year period that investigated the effectiveness of abatacept (2), rituximab (2), and TNF-alpha inhibitors etanercept, infliximab, and adalimumab (11) in DMARD-IR patients; data from 3 placebo-controlled, phase 3 trials for tocilizumab, a newly developed IL-6 inhibitor, were included. The endpoint of interest was ACR20/50/70 response criteria at 24 to 30 weeks. Results were analyzed simultaneously using Bayesian mixed-treatment comparison techniques. Nonoverlapping ACR response rates (
