Disease
Names and IDs as Open Targets gives them. Its IDs in MeSH, Orphanet, the Disease Ontology and the NCI Thesaurus are those Open Targets states for it.
- Other names
- Joint inflammation, arthritides, arthritis, inflammation of skeletal joint, skeletal joint inflammation
- Open Targets
- Highest stage of its drugs
- Approval, for 35 of its 77 drugs, from DailyMed, EMA Human Drugs and TTD
- Open Targets
Drugs77
The drugs Open Targets' clinical reports study for the disease, the highest stage first, then the most trial reports. The stage is Open Targets', the highest any of its sources reports for the pair, and each row names the sources that report it.

The targets ChEMBL's mechanism records give for the disease's drugs, through Open Targets, the most drugs first. A mechanism record says what a drug acts on, not that the target causes the disease.
