Description

Rudy Hidayat and a large team build a scoring system for arthritis drug response in a 2026 multicenter study. Methotrexate is the anchor drug for rheumatoid arthritis, yet response varies widely. The team studied newly diagnosed patients on methotrexate alone and defined success as remission or low disease activity at six months.

The development group held 840 patients. Four factors predicted success: age over 60, a normal sedimentation rate, lower starting disease activity, and lower steroid dose. In a separate group of 265 patients, the score kept modest accuracy, with an AUC of 0.63. The authors offer it for early risk sorting.
