PROGRAM OVERVIEW
This TeleECHO series has been designed for US-based rheumatologists, nurses, and allied healthcare professionals involved in the management of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), to better interpret data from clinical trials supporting the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of JAK inhibitors (JAKi) with different mechanisms of action in patients with moderate-to-severe RA. This series will help health professionals incorporate new evidence-based management recommendations on the use of JAKi for patients with moderate-to-severe RA into clinical practice, and it also supports patient-centered multidisciplinary team-based approaches to the management of those patients with moderate-to-severe RA.
