Key clinical point: Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) showed greater clinically meaningful improvements in fatigue, sleep, and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) with tofacitinib vs. placebo over 6 months, with improvements sustained up to 12 months.
Major finding: The Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue (FACIT-F) total score, Medical Outcomes Study Sleep scale (MOS-SS) Sleep Problems Index I and II scores, and Short Form-36 Health Survey (Physical/Mental Component Summary) score improved significantly with both 5 mg or 10 mg tofacitinib doses vs. placebo at months 1, 3, and 6 (all P < .05). Improvement in FACIT-F and MOS-SS scores were significantly better with 10 mg tofacitinib vs. adalimumab at 6 and 12 months (all P < .05).
Study details: This was a post hoc analysis of three phase 3 trials including 2265 patients with RA who received tofacitinib, placebo, or adalimumab.
