RESUMO

OBJETIVO:

Comparar a eficácia e período de uso de tocilizumabe e infliximabe no tratamento de pacientes com artrite reumatoide.

MÉTODOS:

Foi comparado o tempo de uso de dois biológicos com diferentes mecanismos de ação no tratamento de pacientes com artrite reumatoide.

RESULTADOS:

Ambos os biológicos se mostraram eficazes, mas o tempo de uso sem perda de eficácia foi maior com tocilizumabe quando comparado ao infliximabe.

CONCLUSÃO:

Tocilizumabe mantém um período de uso significativamente maior do que infliximabe em pacientes com artrite reumatoide tratados em uma única instituição.
ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:

To compare the efficacy and the period of use of tocilizumab and infliximab during treatment of rheumatoid arthritis patients.

METHODS:

The period of use of two biologics with different mechanisms of action were compared in treatment of rheumatoid arthritis patients. RES ULTS Both medications showed efficacy, but the period of use with no loss of efficacy was longer in patients receiving tocilizumab when compared to infliximab.

CONCLUSION:

Tocilizumab maintains a period of use significantly longer as compared with infliximab in patients with rheumatoid arthritis treated at a single organization.
