Of these, 276 fulfilled the eligibility criteria and included 219 who had ≥ 1 year follow-up and a mean exposure period of 368 ± 197.1 days. As of 15 March 2021, 122 patients are continuing to take tofacitinib therapy (76 missing prescription data). On inclusion, 77.9% of the 276 pts were females of mean (± SD) age 59.7 ± 11.7 years and a median disease duration of 9.1 years [Q1;Q3: 4.1; 19.2]. A history of cardiovascular disease was found in 12.5% of cases, (4.4% myocardial infraction, 5.5% stroke/transient ischemic attack, 1.5% heart failure and 1.5% peripheral arterial occlusive disease); 5.5% had a history of cancer, 17.5% a prior infection and 46% were smokers/former smokers. Tofacitinib was prescribed in combination with a csDMARD in 58.3% of pts and with corticosteroids in 54.3% of cases. At the cut-off date of 15 March 2021, of the 301 patients, adverse effects (AE) had been reported in 44.9% of cases of which 10.6% were considered serious (SAE). Infections were detected in 18.6% of pts (Table 1).</jats:p><jats:table-wrap id="T1" position="float" orientation="portrait"><jats:label>Table 1.</jats:label><jats:caption><jats:p><jats:bold>Real life safety data for tofacitinib according to age</jats:bold></jats:p></jats:caption><jats:table><jats:thead><jats:tr><jats:th align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">N, (%)</jats:th><jats:th align="left" rowspan="1" colspan="1">&lt;
