Summary

This study checked whether patients with rheumatoid arthritis, spondyloarthritis, Crohn's disease, or uveitis could safely switch from the original drug Remicade to its lower-cost biosimilar Inflectra. Researchers followed 262 adults at one hospital who had already received at least three doses of Remicade. They measured how many patients stayed on Inflectra after three infusions and looked for disease flares or changes in drug levels.
