RA is a common autoimmune disease that causes joint damage.It is necessary to reach the standard as soon as possible and give effective drugs according to the patient's disease activity to avoid disability. Tofacitinib(TF) is a new type of oral tyrosine kinase inhibitor (JAKi) for the treatment of moderate to severe active RA. However, there is alack of Chinese data on the joint scheme, long-term use, maintenance and stop of TF in the real world. We will use the new JAK combination regimen to treat RA patients, and carry out long-term clinical follow-up for 30 weeks.

The percentage of patients whose Disease Activity Score in 28 Joints (DAS28) achieve remission(DAS28-ESR≤ 2.6)and Low Disease Activity (DAS28-ESR ≤ 3.2). The DAS28 is a composite score derived from 4 of these measures,that is the count of tender joint count(TJC, 0-28)and swollen joint count(SJC, 0-28), measure erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR, mm/h) or C reactive protein (CRP, mg/L) and to make a patient assessment of disease activity i.e. 'global assessment of health' (GH) using a 100 mm visual analogue scale (VAS) with 0 = best, 100 = worst. DAS28 values were calculated as follows: DAS28- ESR = 0.56√(TJC) + 0.28√(SJC) + 0.70 ln ESR + 0.014 x GH. High disease activity: DAS28-ESR > 5.1; Moderate disease activity: 5.1≥ DAS28 > 3.2 to 5.1; Low disease activity (LDA) and Remission mean Clinical remission.

△DAS28 indicates the decline of DAS28-ESR from the baseline to week 30. EULAR response states were classified as follows: good responders were patients with an improvement from baseline (△DAS28-ESR) of > 1.2 and a DAS28-ESR at week 30 ≤ 3.2. Moderate responders: △DAS28 > 1.2 and still DAS28 > 3.2 at week 30, or 1.2 ≥△DAS28 > 0.6 and DAS28 ≤ 5.1 at week 30. Nonresponders:△DAS28 ≤0.6 or DAS28 >5.1 at week 30. DAS28-defined remission was classified as a score of <2.6.

Moderate responders:△DAS28 > 1.2 and still DAS28 > 3.2 at week 18; or 1.2 ≥△DAS28 > 0.6 and DAS28 ≤ 5.1 at week 18. Nonresponders:△DAS28 ≤0.6,or DAS28 >5.1 at week 18.

If all of the following 4 parameters are fulfilled, it is defined as remission: TJC ≤ 1, SJC ≤ 1, CRP ≤ 1 mg/dL, Patient global assessment(PGA) ≤ 1 cm (on a visual analog scale ranging from 0-10 cm, with higher scores indicating severe disease).
Time frame: week 18
If all of the following 4 parameters are fulfilled, it is defined as remission: TJC ≤ 1, SJC ≤ 1, CRP ≤ 1 mg/dL, Patient global assessment(PGA) ≤ 1 cm (on a visual analog scale ranging from 0-10 cm, with higher scores indicating severe disease).

The SDAI is a composite score derived from these measures,that is the count of tender joint count(TJC, 0-28), swollen joint count(SJC, 0-28), C-reactive protein (CRP, mg/L), Patient global assessment(PGA)and physician global assessment(PHGA), each of the last two was assessed on a visual analog scale ranging from 0-10 cm, with higher scores indicating severe disease. SDAI score will be calculated with formula SDAI = TJC + SJC + PGA+PHGA+ CRP. SDAI score exceeding 26 is considered high disease activity; 11 <SDAI ≤26,moderate disease activity; 3.3 <SDAI ≤11, low disease activity; remission is SDAI score ≤ 3.3.
Time frame: up to week 30
Change from baseline Clinical Disease Activity Index (CDAI) CDAI is a composite score derived from these measures,that is the count of tender joint count(TJC, 0-28), swollen joint count(SJC, 0-28), Patient global assessment(PGA)and physician global assessment(PHGA), each of the last two was CDAI score will be calculated with formula CDAI = TJC + SJC + PGA + PHGA. CDAI > 22 is considered high disease activity; 10 <CDAI ≤ 22, moderate disease activity; 2.8 <CDAI ≤10, low disease activity; remission is CDAI score ≤2.8.

Change from Baseline in HAQ-DI, a participant assessed measure of health assessment, shaveing eight dimensions of functional activity: pruning, dressing, rising, eating, walking, personal hygiene, reach, grip, and other routine activities. Each item on a single scale has 4 degrees ranging from 0 (no functional difficulty) to 3 (unable to do), with higher scores indicating severe disease.
