Patterns of Biologic Agent Use in Older Males with Inflammatory Diseases: An Institution-Focused, Observational Post-Marketing Study
Drugs & Aging, 08/12/09
Tran S et al. – This experience with biologic agents in older males with inflammatory diseases revealed that the mean number of agents used when rheumatologists managed rheumatoid arthritis and spondyloarthropathies was higher than when gastroenterology or dermatology specialists treated inflammatory bowel disease and psoriasis. The stop/switch rates were lowest among rheumatoid arthritis patients. Rheumatologists treating rheumatoid arthritis tended to keep patients on the first biologic for a longer period of time before stopping/switching. For those patients who remained on their first biologic agent, etanercept was the most commonly continued drug.
