New study aims to improve monitoring of rheumatoid arthritis with simple blood tests and ultrasound
NCT ID NCT07272850
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study will compare blood test results and ultrasound images of joints in 72 people with rheumatoid arthritis. Half are taking JAK inhibitors, and half are on traditional treatments. The goal is to see if certain blood markers can reliably show how active the disease is, which could make monitoring easier and more accurate.
