First seen May 07, 2026 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study aims to see if a blood test can predict how well a lower dose of the drug rituximab works for people with rheumatoid arthritis. Researchers will enroll 30 adults who already respond well to standard-dose rituximab and switch them to a single 1000 mg dose. The goal is to build a model using factors like drug levels and immune cell counts to forecast treatment response, potentially allowing for lower doses with fewer side effects.
