摘要
Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors have proven highly effective in improving the signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis, in inhibiting the progression of joint damage, and improving patients' quality of life. This Viewpoint will discuss the major concern relating to the actual use of TNF inhibitors in the clinic: their relatively high acquisition costs.
