DANBIO registry plenary Abs 1112 finds 1 yr retention following a mandatory nationwide infliximab biosimilar-to-biosimilar switch was high. Retention higher in originator-experienced and in pts w/ low disease activity. #ACR22 @RheumNow https://t.co/ZAV2dcVzXl https://t.co/Kti2bZ1pkZ

DANBIO registry: 1600+ pts RA, AxSpA, PsA
Infiximab biosimilar to biosimilar switch (CT-P13 -> GP1111)
Maintenance at 1yr:
>80%
> withdrawal in original IFX naive, but higher BL DA
Do second time switchers do better because of past switch experience?

We're used to originator-to-biosimilar switches.
Widespread biosim use means we now see biosim-biosim switches (incl as second switch)
DANBIO data
retention good
I see the hallmarks of nocebo still an issue
I think we can all agree: ongoing education important

Biosimilar to biosimilar effective in treatment of RA/PsA/AxSpA.
Large study looking at infliximab biosimilar switching - resulted in high retention rates and virtually no change in disease activity.
