Résumé

To study the effect of tocilizumab initiation on the lipid profile, in correlation to a composite of any cardiovascular events. A retrospective cohort study, using data from the King Faisal Specialist Hospital & Research Centre database, from January 2014 to December 2019. Patients with rheumatoid arthritis or juvenile idiopathic arthritis who were ≥18 years old, initiated either on tocilizumab or other biologic treatment (anti-TNFs or Rituximab), were included, with a follow-up interval duration at a minimum of 6-12 months up to 3-5 years. Any patient with established cardiovascular disease or aged <18 were excluded. Only one cardiovascular mortality was reported in the tocilizumab group. Fifty percent of patients reached high cholesterol levels ≥ 5.2 mmol/L and LDL ≥ 3.37 mmol/L in the tocilizumab group at 36 months in a shorter time period compared to controls (60 months), There was a lack of evidence of increased cardiovascular risk in correlation to hyperlipidemia secondary to tocilizumab treatment.
