Oxford study tests aggressive early treatment for painful arthritis

NCT ID NCT03739853

Summary

This study compared three treatment approaches for people newly diagnosed with moderate to severe psoriatic arthritis. Researchers tested whether starting with stronger combination medications or biologic drugs works better than the standard approach of starting with one medication and adding others only if needed. The trial involved 192 participants who were randomly assigned to receive one of the three treatment strategies.
