HLA-DRB1 risk alleles for RA are associated with differential clinical responsiveness to abatacept and adalimumab: data from a head-to-head, randomized, single-blind study in autoantibody-positive early RA

Abstract Background Certain risk alleles associated with autoantibody-positive rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have been linked to poorer prognoses. In patients with autoantibody-positive RA, abatacept shows differential efficacy to tumor necrosis factor inhibitors. Our aim was to investigate the relation...
