Patient preferences in the choice of anti-TNF therapies in rheumatoid arthritis. Results from a questionnaire survey (RIVIERA study)

Abstract: Both i.v. and s.c. treatments were well accepted by patients. However, treatment choice has to be discussed with patients, as individual preference seems to be determined by personal attitudes towards safety and convenience, by past experience and by the perception of current disease status.

“…Currently, GOL is the only anti-TNF therapy that can be administered as either an SC injection (monthly) or an IV infusion (over 30 min every 8 weeks). Patients often have preferences for mode and frequency of treatment administration for biologic therapies 9,10 . Patient involvement in determining treatment decisions has been shown to improve treatment satisfaction 26 and also efficacy outcomes 27 .…”

“…Some patients are unable or unwilling to self-administer SC biologics at home and may prefer IV biologics. In a previous study, patients with RA receiving IV therapy generally preferred to receive their medication in a medical facility 9 , and in 1 study, patients cited "safety of the hospital administration" and "reassuring effect of the doctor's presence" as The American College of Rheumatology, the Spondylitis Association of America, and the Spondyloarthritis Research and Treatment Network (SPARTAN) treatment recommen-reasons for preferring to receive their medication in a healthcare facility 10 . Some patients also prefer the less frequent dosing interval for IV therapies compared with SC therapies 10 .…”

“…There are in fact few studies where patients' preferences or acceptance for IV and SC drug administration are primary outcomes [18][19][20][21][22][23][24]. A good example is the report by Barbee et al (2013) [19] in which patients with MM who received at least one dose each of IV and SC bortezomib were asked via a questionnaire about their preference for route of drug delivery; 68% preferred SC whilst 25% favoured IV.…”
