For patients with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) who do not achieve adequate clinical response with combined conventional synthetic disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (csDMARDs), initiation of advanced therapies such as biologic DMARDs (bDMARDs) or targeted synthetic DMARDs (tsDMARDs) is recommended. Tumour necrosis factor inhibitors (TNFi) are the ...

Osteoporosis-related fractures are common in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Bone mineral density (BMD) measurements using dual-energy x‑ray absorptiometry (DXA) alone has only a limited value for predicting the risk of fractures. The trabecular bone score (TBS) is a surrogate parameter for trabecular microarchitecture of bone and a predic...

The currently used anti-cytokine therapeutic antibodies cannot selectively neutralize pathogenic cytokine signaling that cause collateral damage to protective signaling cascades carrying the potential for unwanted side effects. The variable domains of heavy-chain only antibodies (HCAbs) discovered in Camelidae are stable and display to be fully fun...
