Hospital tests cheaper copy of popular arthritis drug

NCT ID NCT02998398

Summary

This study looked at whether patients could safely switch from the brand-name drug Remicade to a very similar, lower-cost version called Inflectra. It involved 262 patients at a Paris hospital who were already using Remicade for conditions like rheumatoid arthritis or Crohn's disease. Researchers tracked if patients stayed on the new drug and if their disease remained under control after the switch.
