  • Data are for patients without HxASCVD and with non-missing baseline CV risk score.

  • ASCVD score was calculated with the ASCVD-PCE calculator,18 and a 1.5 multiplier was applied to account for the influence of RA, as recommended by EULAR.19 20

  • For patients randomised to the tofacitinib 10 mg two times per day group who had their dose of tofacitinib reduced to 5 mg two times per day, the data collected after patients were switched to tofacitinib 5 mg two times per day were counted in the tofacitinib 10 mg two times per day group.

  • For malignancies excluding NMSC and lung cancer, the risk period was total time, defined as time from first dose of trial drug until last contact date.

  • For NMSC, the risk period was the 28-day on-treatment time, defined as time from the first until last dose of trial drug + 28 days, or to last contact date, whichever was earlier.

  • *Includes patients who received tofacitinib 5 or 10 mg two times per day in ORAL Surveillance.

  • ASCVD, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease; ASCVD-PCE, ASCVD-Pooled Cohort Equations calculator; CV, cardiovascular; EULAR, European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology; HxASCVD, history of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease; N, number of patients without HxASCVD and non-missing baseline CV risk score; n, number of patients with events; NMSC, non-melanoma skin cancer; N–n, number of patients without events; TNFi, tumour necrosis factor inhibitors.
