The protocol of a clinical effectiveness trial comparing standard step-up care, early combination DMARD therapy and early use of TNF inhibitors for the treatment of moderate to sev... by Watson, M, Tillett, W, Jadon, D, Massa, MS, Francis, A, Gullick, N, Rombach, I, Sinomati, Y, Tucker, L, Coates, LC

“…Early use of biologics has also been shown to be superior to methotrexate but these drugs are costly and not usually funded first line. However, if a short course of biologics can rapidly suppress inflammation allowing treatment to be withdrawn and response maintained on methotrexate, this may be a cost-effective model for early use.…”
