Enrollment

30 participants

Start Date

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

Purpose: The study aims to investigate how Filgotinib affects proteins and micro-RNA in the blood of patients with rheumatoid arthritis. This could help understand its impact on inflammation and bone health in these patients. Study Design: This is a single-center, prospective randomized study.

  • Age \> 18, \<65 years
  • Patients for whom treatment with filgotinib or adalimumab might be planned
