Rheumatoid Arthritis Overview Rheumatoid Arthritis is a chronic autoimmune disorder that primarily affects the joints, leading to inflammation, pain, and potential joint deformity. Rheumatoid Arthritis occurs when the immune system mistakenly attacks the synovium—the lining of the membranes that surround the joints. Rheumatoid Arthritis symptoms typically include joint stiffness, swelling, fatigue, and reduced range of motion, often affecting the wrists, hands, and knees symmetrically. Rheumatoid Arthritis diagnosis involves a combination of physical examinations, blood tests for inflammatory markers, and imaging techniques such as X-rays or MRIs to assess joint damage. Rheumatoid Arthritis progression can vary widely, with some individuals experiencing mild symptoms and others facing significant disability if left untreated Rheumatoid Arthritis treatment focuses on controlling inflammation and slowing disease progression through medications such as Disease-Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drugs (DMARDs), biologics, and corticosteroids. Rheumatoid Arthritis management may also include lifestyle changes, physical therapy, and in severe cases, surgical intervention. Rheumatoid Arthritis research continues to advance, aiming for more targeted therapies and earlier diagnosis. Rheumatoid Arthritis awareness is essential for early detection and intervention, which can significantly improve long-term outcomes. Rheumatoid Arthritis patients benefit from a multidisciplinary approach involving rheumatologists, physical therapists, and support groups to enhance quality of life and manage daily challenges.

Rheumatoid Arthritis Epidemiology Segmentation: Download the report to understand which factors are driving Rheumatoid Arthritis Epidemiology trends @ Rheumatoid Arthritis Prevalence Rheumatoid Arthritis Marketed Drugs • OLUMIANT (barticinib): Eli Lilly and Company/Incyte Corporation OLUMIANT is an immunosuppressant that is indicated for use in inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, or in other terms, it is defined as a Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor used to treat adults with moderate to severe RA who have not responded well enough to or could not tolerate at least one medicine called a tumor necrosis factor (TNF) antagonist. This novel agent achieved its approval on the basis of well-conducted late-stage clinical trials in countries like the US, Europe, and Japan. OLUMIANT is approved with a Boxed Warning for the risk of serious infections, malignancies, and thrombosis. Currently, OLUMIANT is conducting a Phase II trial (NCT04870203) in combination with adalimumab in rheumatoid arthritis • RINVOQ (upadacitinib): AbbVie RINVOQ- an AbbVie product is a prescription medicine used to treat adults with moderate to severe RA in whom methotrexate did not work well or could not be tolerated. In August 2019, AbbVie announced that the US FDA has approved RINVOQ for the treatment of adults with moderately to severely active RA who have had an inadequate response or intolerance to methotrexate. Rheumatoid Arthritis Emerging Drugs • Rabeximod (Rob 803): Cyxone Rabeximod is an orally available drug with a unique mechanism of action that selectively targets the inflammatory macrophage, a type of white blood cell that is the central orchestrator of the inflammatory process that causes tissue destruction and clinical symptoms in rheumatoid arthritis. Rabeximod has been extensively studied in Phase I and Phase II clinical trials. Safety studies reveal a favorable safety profile compared to anti-rheumatoid arthritis drugs such as anti-TNFα monoclonal antibodies and oral JAK inhibitors. In June 2022, Cyxone received a response from a Type B pre-IND meeting with the US FDA. The response from the FDA facilitates for Cyxone to continue planning the Phase IIb study with Rabeximod in rheumatoid arthritis. • Imvotamab: IGM Biosciences Imvotamab is a bispecific T cell engaging IgM antibody targeting CD20 and CD3 proteins. It has 10 binding units for CD20, and it may successfully bind to CD20 expressing B cells with more power (avidity) compared to an IgG bispecific antibody with only one or two binding units for CD20. The company is currently evaluating Imvotamab in Phase-Ib trial for severe rheumatoid arthritis and mostly autoimmune diseases mediated by B-cells. Additionally, in vitro studies show that Imvotamab is significantly more effective than rituximab in depleting low CD20 expressing cells. Rheumatoid Arthritis Market Outlook Rheumatoid Arthritis aims to control pain and inflammation and, ultimately, the goal is remission or at least low disease activity. The FDA that can slow the course of the disease and improve the quality of life has approved scarcely any drugs. Therefore, the management of rheumatoid arthritis remains supportive and symptom-based. In recent years, research on new treatment strategies has increased, taking heed of monoclonal antibodies, small molecules, and others. There are limited approved drugs that slow disease progression by prolonging autonomy and increasing survival rates. Moreover, approved by the US FDA to treat rheumatoid arthritis, including OLUMIANT, RINVOQ, and ORENCIA. Rheumatoid Arthritis Drug Market The pipeline holds multiple promising therapies in various stages of development, most of which are vaccines. Therapies like Rabeximod (Cyxon), Imvotamab (IGM Biosciences), and others are the drugs and Monoclonal antibodies currently in Phase II and Ib trials focusing on Macrophage inhibition and CD cells depletion, and more may follow in the future. The current pipeline does not hold great potential as most of the products are currently in initial and mid stage trials and most of the drugs failed in their last stage trials as the studies did not meet primary and secondary efficacy endpoints in rheumatoid arthritis treatment. However, Rabeximod by Cyxone is a new drug candidate and unique among marketed drugs as well as drugs in development as it selectively targets rheumatoid arthritis via the NFkB pathway of inflammatory macrophages, the central orchestrators of the inflammatory process responsible for tissue destruction and clinical symptoms in rheumatoid arthritis.
