      PSORIATIC ARTHRITIS

      RINVOQ, the first ever once-daily oral JAK inhibitor for the treatment of active PsA, AS and RA1

       

      Improvement in signs and symptoms as measured by ACR20 from as early as
      Week 2 and maintained to Week 56, with significantly greater improvement in ACR20 vs placebo at Week 12 and non-inferiority vs adalimumab in ACR20 response at
      Week 12.*1,3,4

      Significantly more patients treated with RINVOQ achieved PASI 75 at Week 16 vs placebo. 

      Significantly more patients achieved resolution of enthesitis and minimal disease activity at Week 24 vs placebo.1,3,5

      The safety profile of RINVOQ in PsA was consistent with previously reported results in rheumatoid arthritis and no new significant safety signals were
      identified.1,3-8

      *Primary endpoint was the proportion of patients achieving ACR20 response with RINVOQ vs placebo at Week 12.3

      NICE Publishes Positive Technology Appraisal Guidance (TAG) for RINVOQ for treating active psoriatic arthritis in adults2

      RINVOQ, alone or with methotrexate, is recommended as an option for treating active psoriatic arthritis in adults whose disease has not responded well enough to DMARDs or who cannot tolerate them. 

      It is recommended only if they have peripheral arthritis with 3 or more tender joints and 3 or more swollen joints and: 

      • they have had 2 conventional DMARDs and at least 1 biological DMARD or 

      • TNF-alpha inhibitors are contraindicated but would otherwise be considered. 

      RINVOQ is recommended only if AbbVie provides it according to the commercial arrangement.
