Abstract
Achieving clinical deep remission (CliDR) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is essential to prevent long-term joint damage, enhance patient quality of life, and possibly reduce and discontinue medication eventually. Recent research advances have raised the possibility of achieving deep remission and even drug-free remission. This comprehensive review examines current strategies of RA therapy, concept of deep remission, challenges, and the emerging prospects of drug-free remission. It also reviews the role of different treatments, including conventional disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs), biologic agents, and targeted synthetic drugs, in the journey from deep remission to drug-free remission. In addition, it emphasizes the importance of patient-centered care, early diagnosis, and individualized treatment approaches in optimizing outcomes for patients with RA.
期刊介绍：
Evidence-based updates of best clinical practice across the spectrum of musculoskeletal conditions.
Best Practice & Research: Clinical Rheumatology keeps the clinician or trainee informed of the latest developments and current recommended practice in the rapidly advancing fields of musculoskeletal conditions and science.
The series provides a continuous update of current clinical practice. It is a topical serial publication that covers the spectrum of musculoskeletal conditions in a 4-year cycle. Each topic-based issue contains around 200 pages of practical, evidence-based review articles, which integrate the results from the latest original research with current clinical practice and thinking to provide a continuous update.
Each issue follows a problem-orientated approach that focuses on the key questions to be addressed, clearly defining what is known and not known. The review articles seek to address the clinical issues of diagnosis, treatment and patient management. Management is described in practical terms so that it can be applied to the individual patient. The serial is aimed at the physician in both practice and training.
