“There is still not enough known about this topic, and we need the research to determine how to best manage these patients,” Dr. Meissner said. “The time to an event was only 3 years from the time of inclusion in the register, so we need better management of those patients with heart failure as a comorbidity.”
RABBIT is supported by a joint, unconditional grant from AbbVie, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Celltrion, Hexal AG, Lilly, MSD Sharp & Dohme, Pfizer, Roche, Samsung Bioepis, Sanofi-Aventis, and UCB. Dr. Meissner disclosed being on a speakers bureau for Pfizer.
