Once patients met the D2TRA criteria, the subsequent line of b/tsDMARDs with the best survival rates were rituximab, JAKi and IL6Ri. Moreover, DAS28 at 6-months of treatment after D2T was an independent risk factor for drug discontinuation. Key Points • Rituximab, IL6Ri and JAKi have better retention rates in patients after fulfilling D2TRA criteria • Clinical disease activity in the first six months after fulfillment of D2TRA criteria is an independent risk factor of subsequent treatment survival.
