About this trial

The aim of this study is to offer patients two treatment options: morning or evening administration of a JAK inhibitor prescribed within the framework of its marketing authorization, according to the EULAR response.

The objective is to determine whether evening administration in our patients with rheumatoid arthritis provides greater efficacy than morning administration in our patients taking JAK inhibitors once daily.
